Excellent source

Whether your new to the ideas of mindfulness and Buddhism or a long time practitioner, this is the magazine for you. It is always the first magazine I read and “cover to cover”.
Excellent app

I love lions roar — I read it every day. One way I think the app could be improved is if the same tabs available on desktop/mobile were implemented. For example, I frequent the “Teachings” tab on desktop/mobile, but the app does not have this; I am limited to the top stories or to searching for articles with the search bar. Adding the same tabs would streamline everything and make it more user-friendly.
It’s okay

BIGGER TEXT SIZE PLEASE. I’m a long time subscriber to Shambhala Sun, and I enjoy reading this magazine in it’s print form. I decided to give it a chance on my iPad mini, to be more environmentally friendly. The new app works well and I enjoy the dynamic layouts and multimedia format. However, the type size is TOO SMALL. I wish there was a way to set a larger font size to read more easily. This is a good app, but one tiny tweak would make it a great app. Thank you.
Functions just as you would expect and want it to

Quick magazine download times, friendly user interface and perfectly functional for your ability to access your magazine digitally. I only do not give it 5 stars because I feel 5 stars means it's an exceptional and goes above and beyond expectations type of app.
No longer recognizes my subscription

I just subscribed a few weeks ago and have enjoyed the app, but now it's trying to force me to buy issues or subscribe from within the app even though I'm logged in!
Portrait mode only

The app is working, but it can only be read in portrait mode on the ipad. I would greatly prefer it to be able to switch to the horizontal position.
App not functioning for me
Sombraluna
I have this app downloaded on my iPhone X. Once I log in I do not see my issues or really anything at all. When I click the settings wheel (upper right corner) all I see is subscribe or sign in on on tab, and nothing on the prefs tab.
Terrible

The apps on both my iPhone and iPad quit working. I paid for a digital subscription and no longer have access to it. I’ve deleted the apps, then reinstalled only to find out i don’t even have the old issues to read.
Broken

The app has been broken for several weeks now. It won’t load any magazine articles, old nor new. At first I thought this was temporary as the foundation sent out an email saying they were updating something on the backend. However, it’s been several weeks and the app still doesn’t work.
