Smithsonian Magazine Reviews

June issue missing

I have reported twice within this app that the June 2020 issue is missing but have had the courtesy of a response

Terrible customer service

I purchased a UK digital subscription to The Smithsonian nearly three weeks ago. Since that point I've been unable to download a single edition despite paying nearly £15 for the privilege. I've been in touch with their customer service who reply nearly a week later with the suggestion to force close the app. Thanks for that. I'm giving them one more chance and then will pursue a full refund from iTunes. A shame because I enjoy the articles I read on their website but for some reason the app seems incapable of knowing whether you have subscribed or not, even if you purchase the subscription via the app itself.

App crashes

App crashes whenever I try to open it. Please fix immediately.

The “Tap to Subscribe” button is off the screen

As much as I’d like to get a digital version instead of killing trees to have a paper edition, I can’t subscribe because the stupid button to double click is off the screen. Good web design, Smithsonian!

Please Show TOC

The magazine is great and the app is really good, too. But, could you please allow us to look at each back issue’s table of contents before purchase so we can tell exactly what we’re buying? It’s very hard to tell from just looking at a thumbnail image of a magazine’s front cover, even on an iPad.

Disappointed with this app

Requires a separate purchase to access digital version of magazine, even if you are a print subscriber. App is clunky, doesn’t remember your progress and starts over at the beginning of an article every time you reopen the app. Two stars because the content is top-notch, but an otherwise disappointing experience using this app.

Loses your last viewed page

Great content. Lousy app. Can’t keep track of what is your last viewed page in an issue. Very frustrating having to remember where you were.

Old Magazine issues gone

Ever since the app was updated, the magazines I’ve been saving from January 2012 to today have all been erased. The pages are gone and if this doesn’t get fixed, I’ll look for something else that will.

Inferior to previous version

The newly updated version of this app is distinctly inferior to the previous version. You can’t set bookmarks any more, so unless you read the entire magazine in one sitting, you have to remember where you were. Also, in articles where you should be able to see multiple pictures by touching the picture or swiping left or right, you can only see the initial picture. There’s no way to see the others.

WARNING! DELETE THIS APP OR IT MIGHT BRICK YOUR IPAD!

Saw that Smithsonian now says you can read the print magazine on your iPad, if you subscribe, which I do. Great, I thought, update and try it. Not only did this not work, it nearly bricked my iPad. Finally got it working again after some effort. THIS IS A DANGEROUS APP AND SHOULD BE IMMEDIATELY DELETED BY EVERYONE! I cannot understand why the overwhelming majority of magazines have useful apps where I can read my print subscription and Smithsonian has been a major fail in this area literally for years. I doubt the app developers ever read these, but if you do: Shame on you. FIX THIS!!!!!!!!!M
