Digital delay
Joruli2
I always get my paper copy at least a week before the digital version shows up. This is very annoying.
Forced to purchase magazine each month, though subscribed
Manahound
Both the Maximum PC and PC Gamer magazine apps deserve less than one star. Each month, a person either needs to reinstall the app and restore purchases or pay for every new magazine each month, even with a monthly subscription. I’ve subscribed to each magazine for countless years, but after dealing with this broken app for nearly a year now, I’m unsubscribing. It’s not worth the aggravation, and Apple should pull the app.
Prompt for purchase???
MattRosenburg
I have an active iTunes subscription, yet when I attempt to download the March 19 issue, I’m presented with an App Store purchase screen for $8.99. Why?
Did a second grader make this app?

The look is so horrible, it doesn’t feel modern or sleek at all. It’s very clunky and ugly. It has a “scam website” feel. I subscribed and tried to download an issue. It says if I’m not an iTunes user I need to sign in. First I need to actually create a login and password but there’s no place to do that and I’m NOT going to download something crappy like iTunes just for this app. So I’m going to cancel my subscription...but guess what. I need to download iTunes to cancel! How are we in 2020 and some companies can’t make a good app. Even just a decent one. I could go to Fivr and get someone to make me a better app than this.
Love the magazine, but not the app
Jeff Purvin
I get all my magazine and newspapers electronically these days. The PC Gamer app requires a lengthy download that of every issue that, frankly, sends me away to do other things on my iPad, forgetting to go back to read the download which stops downloading as soon as I leave the app, lengthening my next visit, too. Once an issue is downloaded, the app labels it as “Read”. But, that’s a terrible label. It doesn’t tell you whether you have or haven’t read that issue. You have to open the issue and read a bit of it to see if you recognize its content or not. Last, the “sharing” function is awful. I often want to send an article to myself to remind myself to buy a certain game. But, whenever I email it to my myself, the link in my email doesn’t open the article. It simply sends me to the PC Gamer app in the App Store asking me to download the app, even though I already have it. Nevertheless, the magazine is great. I realize it’s expensive to update apps, but a small amount of if/then code could improve the “Read” label and a little code should be able to actually send the article, not an App Store link, to those wanting to share an article.
App is broken, do not subscribe

I paid for a year subscription with PC Gamer, and the app is completely broken. It won’t allow download, and keeps giving me error 442303. I used the embedded Contact button to request assistance from developer, and no response. I’m now out the money I spent and received nothing from it and a broken app. DO NOT SPEND MONEY on this magazine. The app is broken, you won’t be able to access your magazine, and the developer will not address the issue.
Design is kinda clunky.
Verticalphase
It looks a bit out dated, and doesn’t really fit well with the screen. Looks like it’s still designed for the 4in. smartphones. And the interface of the pre iOS 10 update. Love PC Gamer though so happy that they have an app for it, but would really love it if they updated the design and interface!
Great magazine, annoying app
IronChickn
I've been getting PC Gamer in one form or another for about 20 years, so suffice to say I'm a fan. After subscribing through this app I've been pretty annoyed at being repeatedly bothered to buy their back catalog of issues. Can I say no and not be bothered again for at least a month or something? Why do I have to get a pop up every time I want to read my magazine? And even on a speedy connection these issues take forever to load and don't seem to be able to load with the screen off or in the background, making my iPad captive for 10 minutes or so as I have to keep it awake and not do anything else with it, on an iPad Air 2. Come on guys, I'll keep subscribing but please fix this thing!
Nothing fancy about app.
Jeffrey99
Nothing more then a digital version of the print. No interactive features like trailers or anything. Nothing more really then then a PDF version of the print. Magazine is great. App is blah.
Constant subscription reset
Bubbuh Jones
I love the mag, but this app wants me to cancel and carry around paper copies. Or cancel all together. It constantly resets my subscription and I have to download my issues all over again.
