Vogue Knitting Reviews

Waiting!

I’ve been trying to buy one past issue for three hours. It was my ONE goal to do today. THIS IS CRAZY!

Useful only as a preview to hard copy

I like using this app to see new issues before the hard copy arrives in my mailbox. Otherwise it’s pretty useless. You can’t print anything other than little snippets of text and the links in the resource tab are broken (stitchionary, stitch workshop, how to, etc). It seems pretty clear that nobody at Vougue is using this app nor cares about customer service.

SO disappointed

I have to agree with other bad reviews. I would give a negative rating of I could. I used to love the ease of access to past issues and being able to send myself a single pattern. I've had issues with this app the last couple of years. This latest update is pitiful. When you tap on the article there's a black screen until you tap on text. It took me 2 months to get access to the patterns I paid for 8 years ago. The tech support is not good either.

Terrible!

The user interface on this app is TERRIBLE, and renders it unusable. I can’t even see in an easy location my previous purchases, I have no idea where they are. No response either to customer support. Money thrown away, don’t waste your time or money on it.

Haven’t subscribed since 2014, and never will again

Former Texture user

I dropped my subscription because I lost issues every time I updated the app. Since then the app has dropped the ability to view a 2 page spread as one would in a physical copy, destroying the integrity of much of the content. There has never been a reliable means to view only the issues purchased, and now one has to wade through all content to find ones issues, which say they are available offline, but in fact require login to access, which requires connection to the internet. Buy back issues used through Amazon. Don’t waste your time on this fiasco.

Hard to figure out site

Loses purchases, poor tech support

The Vogue Knitting app denied access to an issue I already purchased, and had even downloaded to my iPad. I tried their Restore Purchases setting, which did not work. I used their contact form to email tech support, explaining that I had already used Restore Purchases. Five days later, I received an email telling me how to use Restore Purchases (which I had told them I had done), and stating that if that didn’t work they couldn’t offer any assistance. The patterns are good, if you can access them.

Not ready for prime time

This is a beta. It does not sync across devices. Requires login from the same device you originally used. Downloading or syncing PDF to Kindle fails. Sigh.

Money wasted

Hard to navigate, and cannot print patterns!! Pretty hard to read a chart on an iPhone! Lost $5.99!

Thieves

They steal back what you have already paid for. I was a subscriber for 2 years and I have NOTHING to show for it. A “downloaded” issue you paid for can disappear at any time. At least when you buy a hardcopy, they don’t decide after a couple of months they’ll break into your home and steal it back. DON’T BUY THROUGH THIS APP UNLESS YOU HAVE MONEY LITERALLY TO GIVE AWAY. You don’t even get to KEEP the magazine. Thieves.
