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.
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?
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!
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.
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.
Do not touch it with a barge pole.
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!!
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
Such a surprise to find the update and love the access to more audio . Much better reader too! Easy and more reliable to use and layout more refreshing. Well Done!
You have to pay to read anything, don’t fall for it
