The Drake Magazine - Reviews, Revenue and Downloads - Apple App Store

Description

The Drake is a quarterly magazine for people who love flyfishing, and also love quality writing and photography. The Drake is informative, educational, and entertaining, but it is not a "how-to" magazine. Many of the stories are about the "culture" of flyfishing—the people, the places, and of course, the fish.

Same

As other recent posters have stated, I cannot access my library and I’m paying for a monthly sub through iTunes but still asking me to buy each issue. Seems like there’s a gap somewhere.

Can’t restore iTunes subscription purchases

I’ve wasted a lot of time trying to read the magazines I’ve been paying for. Get this fixed soon, please.

Can’t restore my purchases and still charging me

The new app looks great. Just wish I could read what I’m paying for. PLEASE FIX THIS!!!

Why is it so hard to have an app that works

Can’t restore my purchases. Has no issue charging me monthly.

Good mag, terrible app

I'm just about fed up with wasting time trying to use my subscription. Downloads are unbelievably slow, they usually hang after a few pages. I tried deleting the app and reinstalled it, to no avail. It should not require a genius to build an app allowing subscribers to read this magazine!

Credit where due

They have done a lot to get there digital issue, well issue, fixed. Digital issues resolved. Great magazine and they are committed to the fish, the sport and the water.

App is way better now

Ive noticed the past three issues (summer, fall, and winter 2019) all appeared about the same time as the print issue in the fly shops, so it appears the Drake’s customer service has finally caught up to its great content.

Best writing out there!

Not sure where some of these comments come from, no issues for me at all. But even if there were some, the content would be worth it! Its so easy to sit down and get happily lost in the stories found in The Drake. You can tell - well before the “by line” - that the authors love what they do. Mix in plenty of humor, amazing photography, insightful commentary and it all adds up to the BEST publication available for fly fishing enthusiasts! I LOVE The Drake, nothing else compares - you won’t regret it!

Updated Review

7/12/19 Another update. The summer 2019 issue was available on the app yesterday, the same day that the print issue was available. As noted in my previous review below all problems with the delay in the availability of the issues in the app have been resolved. Excellent magazine! 5/29/19 The content and functionality of the app are fine. In fact the magazine itself is excellent. As you might see from other reviews, there has been a history of the issues on the app not being available until much later than the print version. On April 1 of this year, I posted a review about the digital version lagging about half a year behind the print version and the lack of response to my emails about this. Here is an update of that review. I received a thoughtful email from the editor (Tom Bie) explaining the challenges they’ve had with the digital platform and their plans to improve. The app version is now caught up with the print version, and the most recent issue is available on the app. Based on this, I think the issue has been resolved, and I anticipate the digital version of the summer 2019 issue will be available the same time as the print issue. I’m glad to see the Drake Magazine step up and remedy this. Having a viable, environmentally friendly alternative to the paper version of the magazine is important to many fly fishers who are concerned about the environment.

App is terrible

Love the magazine but the app is terrible. I have been charged the subscription rate monthly but it has not updated the offering since Winter last year.
