Needs work

Won't let me log in using my USNI username and password.


A Treasure!

Smart design and deep content! Excellent!


Still needs work.

Much more convenient, yes - and sincere thanks for making this happen. Hyperlinks go to Safari instead of within app, forcing another log-in. Scrolling is painful. Pauses to load instead of scrolling one minute... then over-reactive to scrolling input the next. Recommend a page-turn method, perhaps - very hard to read as is. I'll add more QA points if I have any.


Get a refund from your developers, USNI

Horrible UI that is inconsistent with other similar apps. Scrolling right to left is a default, unchangeable behavior. Scrolling of articles is slow and jerky, a first for me in any iOS app. Font choice is strange and varies. Icons and logos are not designed with Retina displays in mind and thus look fuzzy. Multiple "loading" progress bars. Sharing options are good, but if the app is set up for offline reading, why even have an option to save to pocket? Fire the developer, USNI. Go with someone who will give you a visually appealing and easy to use app.


Not ready for prime time

Really horrible coordination with the website so that it is impossible to get a user name that works with the app.


Too Bad You Can't download the App :(

I agree with the last review...The App does not allow you to simply pay for a subscription and read it on your iPad. Instead it requires a "User Name" and separate "Password" just for the App and it is very confusing to say the least as to what you are buying - an e-mail magazine (which is what it seems to be) or one I can open in iBooks (which is what I want). Sorry guys...this is a work in progress :(


Needs Work

I really appreciate the ease with which I can explore the USNI sites with this app. However it's incredibly jerky and loads slowly when you open and close the app. Fixing this would definitely raise my rating.


Poor reader app
WySubGuy

I have shifted to reading other magazines and newspapers on Apple's newsstands and stand alone apps. They are seamless and reliable. All easily let me review old issues. Those are my top three priorities and this app fails in all three areas. There is some glitch in the database so after I log on, the app shows me logged on with an email address I haven't used for three years. I deleted and reloaded this app with no improvement in features.


IT!S A TRAP!

Don't do it! If you paid for the paper subscription, full access, this new APP removes your access to view the digital version unless you buy again through iTunes!
