## WIRED Magazine Reviews in United States

### *---- "Horrible App— Fix this immediately"
App keeps claiming that I need a subscription to view magazines even though I already have one and am logged in. I sent out an email to customer support. We’ll see what they say but man. I mean, a hackathon group can create a more functional app than this in like 3 days. Extremely disappointed.
-- raulyintheback, 2025-01-14

### *---- "It’s just the rag"
This iPad app only shows a regurgitation of the Wired magazine, page for page, without even as much as links within the table of contents, unlike the Android & iPhone apps that cover everything Wired.
-- Nickname that no one else has, 2025-01-14

### *---- "Useless app"
This app makes no effort to work on an iPhone size screen. It simply displays a replica of the print magazine - big pages that have minuscule type you cannot read or zoomed in that become difficult to navigate. Why did Wired Magazine bother creating this app?
-- SethSea, 2025-01-11

### *---- "Digital login $5 FAIL"
Upon PAYING $5 for a digital subscription to this magazine, installing, creating a login, the app says “…experiencing technical difficulties” ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Joke! Robbery! DO NOT SUBSCRIBE. They will steal from you from the get go. Login is way too complicated.
-- Stealing- waste of time!, 2025-01-06

### *---- "Read format destroyed"
The Wired app had a brilliant format - with every article scrolling seamlessly on the vertical orientation, and shifting between articles in the horizontal orientation. It was dynamic, easy to figure, and kept your reading position into each article as you moved back and forth between them. 

Now it is all gone and the app is just a (not) glorified PDF reader whcih moves horizontally from page to page with absolutely NO optimization for reading a magazine in an iPad. What a shame!

Please bring it back!
-- Rmabreu, 2024-12-26

### *---- "Poor Formatting"
The most recent update is nothing but a single page of the magazine on the screen. What used to be a dynamic way to read WIRED magazine is now just scrolling a multi-page PDF and the view isn’t full screen. Worse, yet, is that one whole page doesn’t even fit on the iPad screen - users have to scroll down just to see the rest of the single page. 

I’ll keep my subscription, but the app needs to be completely reimagined.
-- nthorn, 2024-12-15

### *---- "Terrible UX"
The app is just a regurgitated version of the magazine.   This means it doesn’t take advantage of even basic features of the internet circa 1995.  No table of contents, no way to quickly jump to an article.  Really!!  This is what makes people hate publishers like Condé Naste. As much as I like Wired I’ll be canceling
-- Nevets L, 2024-11-28

### *---- "Wake up"
Fix this app idiots
-- MMM oh well, 2024-11-16

### *---- "Making it worse"
They keep changing the app to make it worse. Now I can’t even archive an issue !
-- lpublius, 2024-10-24

### *---- "This is why magazines are dead."
I have nothing more to add than the rest. There’s a reason print and digital magazines are dead. See Condé Nast for why.
-- CyberSecGreg, 2024-07-24

### *---- "Layout change 👎"
The content went from pleasant to read to unusable with the change from a “reader” layout to just putting the magazine’s PDFs onto my phone screen. Very strange move after having done it right for so long. Disappointing for a magazine centering on digital culture to make this kind of mistake. I hope it was an honest one!
-- leggerss, 2024-07-12

### *---- "App is unusable"
Unlike every modern news app, this just offers whole magazines for view. It’s not optimized for mobile or any screen. And it didn’t give me access when I logged in, even though I subscribe.

Among the worst news apps I have ever used. Especially embarrassing for a tech magazine. This is what you’d do if you were deliberately trying to kill a magazine. Makes me want to unsubscribe.
-- JC58584, 2024-07-10

### *---- "From good to bad cheap magazine scans"
I loved to read Wired on my iPad. I was a subscriber for several years. I even stayed when they started to issue only 6 magazines per year and charged for 12.
But somebody at Conde Nast decided to go even cheaper. Instead of native iPad reading experience the latest update introduced a cheap scans of paper magazines (why cheap? because they don’t even care when you see a page break in the scan…).
Why?
Want to get rid of all your subscribers?
-- Filip.Krejcirik, 2024-07-05

### *---- "Reformat"
Been a subscriber for years. The new formatting on digital copies is unreadable on my iPhone. The line breaks don’t make sense and you have to zoom and scroll to read for a page length.
-- Halucigens, 2024-07-03

### *---- "The formatting messed up"
I can’t read articles anymore from the app. The view is just like a scanned pages from the book and the font is too small. It was not like this before, something changes which messed up the app viewing.
-- KarthikVarmaN, 2024-07-01

### *---- "Change from readable to magazine format"
I am inclined to not only delete the app but also cancel my subscription.  Every article should be optimally displayed for the screen in the app.  Instead, it now displays like someone photographed the hard copy edition and loaded it for subscribers as a consolation (sorry, you only subscribed to the digital edition).  Either change to the previous digital edition rendering, or at least provide a mode in the app to render the editions, well, legible without zoom, scan and scroll through each paragraph and column.
-- Brian Feathers, 2024-06-19

### **--- "Ancient app"
Just canceled subscription. Just too hard to read with dinosaur of an app
-- bendhoward, 2024-06-19

### *---- "Can’t use with my digital subscription?"
Stay away from Wired digital subscription. You aren’t allowed to use the app, you have to use your browser and good luck trying to find the current magazine and accessing it in any form of a competent manner. Wasting over 30 minutes with customer “service “ and if I hadn’t found my verification I’d have been out of luck. Oh yeah they’ll mumble about the small print….
-- Jasper 2022, 2024-06-11

### *---- "Great Magazine, Unusable App"
As others have pointed out, all this app does is provide typeset pages from the print magazine which are mostly unreadable. They can only be viewed in portrait mode and the text can’t be resized. By the time the user zooms in enough to read the text it’s generally not possible to see a single column width, so you have to constantly pan back and forth to read each line. Text can’t be selected or highlighted. There is no online content. This reminds me of pdf viewer apps for mobile devices from around 15 years ago.
-- cyclosaurus, 2024-06-11

### *---- "Won’t let me access"
Have a print subscription but this app suddenly won’t let me access the digital version after years of working.
-- SteveMo32, 2024-06-07
