BBC History Magazine Reviews

App doesn’t open

Koalahippo on

Hong Kong SAR China

Hi The app BBC History magazine does not open on my IPAD for the last week....I have been a subscriber for several years. I tried to email app support but got reply that server cannot be found. Please take remedial action as soon as possible.

Interesting and informative content. Surprising parallels with current day affairs and topics give it relevance

New versions never tested update

Empire01 on

United Kingdom

Every time there’s a new version, there’s problems having to log back in again. This happens constantly. It never accepts my subscription number for weeks and then decides it’s going to. I don’t know if these apps are ever tested before their release to the public, but it certainly doesn’t appear so. The following day another version was released. This works fine. Panic over.

Reading view

Hugo42! on

United Kingdom

I decided to rejoin BBC History Magazine after a break. I am extremely disappointed to see that you’ve changed the reading format. Previously the digital ‘reading view’ was as the paper addition but now we have to scroll down each article. Is it possible to have the ‘reading view’ as it used to be (the paper format) added into the app?

Unable to access App. Hopeless tech support. Don’t waste your money!

GJG585 on

United Kingdom

Again and again I find I am unable to access my subscription. No amount of working through their systems works. Hopeless tech support. Do not subscribe!

Great content but the ads

<<<Cawinee>>> on

United Kingdom

The history content is really great. However, after subscribing and using the app maybe three times, I was faced with an ad, which I could not just exit. Subscriptions shouldn’t come with ads. So, I unsubscribed.

Rubbish ap , shame as the content good

Commuting Scrabble Player on

United Kingdom

You used to be able to access this via iPhone like a normal ap, but now it is obsessed with making you login and subscribe via the website which never works on my phone (iPhone 12) . I subscribed through iPhone store but can’t access, what a waste of money. Which is a shame as the content is excellent really wanted to read it.

Waste of space

I don' believe you on

United Kingdom

Do not touch it with a barge pole.

Dire! Unable to access content that I’ve subscribed to!

Jahmez1964 on

United Kingdom

I’d give “0 stars if I could for this dire app. I have a subscription to this magazine yet am unable to access any content which I’ve paid for. Only option showing is £5.99 for each issue even though previously they were downloaded & readily available. No option available to sign in as “already a subscriber”. All my bookmarks have disappeared as well as all the paid for issues I’ve downloaded and on,y option available is to pay £5.99 for each!! Also get constantly bombarded with emails (to the address used for my subscription) it’s offers of discounted subscriptions to the magazine I’m already subscribed to. Avoid this app!!

Sign in requested via History Extra.com

Ally CH on

United Kingdom

Can’t access my magazines - app asks me to log in - when I press log in it asks me to log in via History Extra - I don’t have an account with them - no explanation why - I set up an account with history extra but still can’t get into app. This needs fixing ASAP
