Description

If you're a member of ARRL, the national association for Amateur Radio, install this app and have QST, the ARRL membership journal, delivered to your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch every month!

QST entertains and informs with news, construction projects, tutorials and much more. That's why it is the most widely read Amateur Radio publication in the world. The digital version of QST goes even further with content not found in the printed journal.

Did anyone test this?

I get the splash page and nothing else. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling with same results.

login

I can not seem to log in to this app. On the other hand, I am able to log in and read the magazines using Safari. Are the credentials not the same between the two?

Search needs fixing

Search will not work across all the different publications. I wanted to search “On the Air“ but it only searches QST. Search inaccurately warns that you must have the magazine downloaded, however, results include those from undownloaded ones. Useful, but inaccurate. The app is OK if you just wanna browse the magazines. 73

Can’t log in

I can log in on my iPad mini but my iPhone just doesn’t work at all. Won’t even let me sign in

Login crashes

On both the ARRL website and this app, the login is awful. It often crashes. Sometimes on the website you can get in after the crash (HTTP 500 error) and sometimes not. No such luck with this app.

Nope

Password for ARRL does not work in the app. I can access ARRL mags via my browser using my password, but not the app. So, nope, this won’t be an app I use until that gets fixed.

Fuzzy Pages

Ok except for the continuing fuzzy pages problem. When a page goes fuzzy you have to scroll off of it and then back on to get it crisp again. PLEASE FIX THIS

Works great

Works great with my I-Phone and I-Pad. Magazine editions load fast, and are easy to view. The negative reviews look to be based on old versions.

This app is why I keep getting the hard copy of QST!

Update July 2023: nothing has changed since last review. Still terrible and ARRL appears to not care about quality. They want to raise membership dues but they don’t spend anytime reading the feedback here and making improvements. Besides all of the bugs previously reported by others, the application doesn’t seem to be very sharp. No matter how you zoom in or out the fonts appear blurry and make reading challenging to say the least. ARRL if you want people to give up their hard copies to save funding, spend a few bucks to get this right. Maybe try a platform that many newspapers use or CQ magazine.

Text input Fails with IPAD IOS

The login screen will NOT ACCEPT text input so its impossible to enter my user ID information. PLEASE FIX ! PREVIOUS APP VERSIONS WORKED FINE. Currently IOS is the latest version on a new ipad.
