How to ruin a perfectly good app.
BJQool
Was your update hacked by the Russians? Issues never actually download for offline viewing. That was ideal for the 6 hr plane ride I just had. No easy way to link to a specific article. None of this was a problem in the past. Fix this or you will lose this 25+ year subscriber.
3 months into broken 5.0 update

Offline viewing is unusable. We're three months past the broken 5.0 update and they haven't bothered fixing. Temporarily pausing subscription until they fix their broken app.
Bad UI .. Subscription Error

The old UI was so much better. It is now just a website in an App. Also, I get errors all the time when trying to download the latest issue. Sometime it acts like I don't have a subscription. Other times it give me a download error. The whole purpose of using the app on a tablet is so that I can read the issue on the road even if I don't have an internet connection. The app is so unreliable now I am thinking of cancelling my subscription.
Total downgrade

No offline reading. It does not remember where you left off. This app now has an overwhelming number of one star reviewed and it has been for a couple of months. This needs to be fixed asap, then I'll change it back to 5 stars.
New version is awful. I'm canceling.

They updated their app a while back and now I can't use it unless I'm on perfect wifi. Even trying to download the issue ahead of time won't work. What good is it if it's not as portable as a magazine? I can't even read this on a plane or in a car, and can barely read it in my home. I have no idea why they ruined a perfectly good app. I'm switching back to print, because the digital is now useless.
Awful new version

While the old version was rather outdated, at least it worked fairly reliably. The new version 5.0 app is half baked at best. SLOW downloads, flaky reliability, poor design. Hard to believe that there's been no response to all of the 1 star reviews, but I guess Condé Nast just doesn't care.
So bad
b_rare
The updated app is so terrible that I've canceled my subscription to GQ. - Unable to read an issue when in airplane mode (even if you wait the 30 minutes for the issue to download) - Articles take several seconds to load on downloaded issues - Can't pick up where you left off on an article. If you close the app you will lose your page - Content is laid out as a print magazine (continue reading an article at the end of an issue) instead of the tablet-friendly v4 app Even though I enjoy GQ's writing and content, I cannot find a reason to keep this terrible app on my device.
Worst magazine app ever created

The new version of GQ is impossible to navigate and removes any and all joy that might possibly have been derived from reading this otherwise fine publication. Having cancer would be more enjoyable than wasting time on this app. I will be canceling my subscription from iTunes and will resubscribe through Zinio.
Completely useless

I mostly read GQ on the plane because I fly every week. It worked fine before, but now none of the images load without an internet connection (like on a plane!). Even if you already downloaded the issue you can't see anything. And worse, looks like we've been making these comments for 5 months and it's still not fixed. I give it one more month before I cancel.
