## SFX magazine Reviews in United Kingdom

### ***** "Fantastic magazine, awful app"
I’m a big fan of SFX the magazine but this app is terrible. Restoring purchases takes ages, crashing 9 times out of 10. I’ve subscribed digitally but the current magazine doesn’t have the ability to  Download. It takes several attempts at reinstalling the app to restore and claim the current issue, if it works at all. I’ll be continuing to buy the print magazine in support of this great mag.
-- Zaa Zehuti, 2022-02-24

### *---- "Previously bought special editions not supported"
With the special editions app no longer supported, I was very disappointed that all the magazines I bought through it were not ported over to this app. Not going to buy them again. Contacted the support email address and never heard back.
-- CameronMac70, 2018-11-24

### ****- "Excellent app and magazine but…"
Love SFX and highly recommend it.
Always strong content and beautifully put together.

App is okay but has three major issues:
1) restoring previous purchases after a device change is hugely frustrating
2) does not support the full real estate of the iPhone Xs Max
3) Does not include the free gifts given with the print edition
-- Harlekwin, 2018-09-25

### ***** "My favorite mag in my favorite format"
Snappy interface , great content, love it
-- macdreamcatcher, 2017-07-29

### *---- "Be warned"
Paid £2.99 for a magazine and got nothing. Seriously , stay away. A shame as the magazine is good.
-- Spready1971, 2015-07-17

### ***-- "Good app but not perfect"
Works well most of the time - more stable now than previous versions but does not always remember the last page read which is a pain
-- Torbay Miles, 2015-03-02

### ****- "To much Who"
I've been a reader of SFX for roughly 20 odd years now and a subscriber to the digital version for the last 18 months. I can't fault the digital version at all it works to perfection and I prefer it to the print version where dare I say the pages are of a low quality. The only gripe I have is Doctor Who always gets maximum points even though it's junk sci fi 😉
-- Dave Reynolds, 2015-02-05

### *---- "Useless"
Crashes every time I try to read the magazine. Cancelled subscription.
-- 19mike66, 2015-01-04

### *---- "Doesn't work and no support"
Cant get this to work with IOS8 at all.  It happily takes money from you but the magazine wont open.  When you try and go to the support page, you'll just find page not found, it doesnt exist.  I feel totally ripped off.
-- BigBoBone, 2014-10-16

### ***-- "Issues with latest update"
Mag is excellent, however the iPad app no longer saves the last read location. The magazine starts at the front cover on each launch. Very annoying.
-- David Smith UK, 2014-10-09
