Again?
Christy KCMO

Seriously the last time your app updated it took 4 months and countless emails, posts and stalking to get my subscription to work and here we go again. Fire your developers cause they have failed you and you are failing me. Back to paper


Needs more of a sample
Beatloaf

This looks like it could be a great magazine/app but the " sample" only gives you a letter from the editor & the table of contents. I need more before I would buy. Writing style? Depth of articles? Anything. This is just a big shiney ad.


Advertised as free but....

Gotta pay for subscription.


I wish print subscribers had free access to the digital copy

I downloaded the Old House Journal app this morning and was disappointed to learn that existing print subscribers do not receive free access to the digital copy. Many other magazines offer this benefit and I hope that you will begin doing so as well.


Don't bother until fixed

Downloaded app and immediately subscribed, unfortunately, it won't let me download any issues. When I try, I get an error message that I must upgrade to newer version of the app even though no newer version is available. Useless app and I'm out $10 for my subscription.


Print Subscription

I have a print subscription to this magazine. Unless I am missing it, there is no place for me to put in my information in order to receive the digital copy, like most magazines allow. Seems like a pretty big oversight.


UPDATE!!! App Crashes! Been like this for Months!
Charbonneau W

NOW they have updated the app, the individual issues will not download!!! For three weeks now I have been getting an error message that states the app cannot connect to the server and to try again later! PLEASE OHJ, get your act together or refund my money! now with your update, the issues won't even download! DO NOT SUBSCRIBE! Even after you download a full issue, you cannot open and read the issue unless you have an internet connection. This has been a persistent problem for MONTHS and it has not been fixed. What use is a digital magazine if you have to be online in order to read it? Hey OHJ, fix the glitch already!


does not work
hudsonwolf

only error messages. fix this nonsense.


Print subscribers have to pay twice

Should consider a price break for your existing customers.


Disappointed

Since they updated this app, I have lost all access to my previous magazines or any new ones. Restore does not work. Emailed Developer and no response. Spoke to iTunes and they cannot help since they did not develop app. Very Upset!
