GD Legacy

I have subscribed for many years and as of Jan 2020 access to further editions proved impossible. Emailed the publisher and received automatic replies with suggestions to fix the problem but none worked. Repeated attempts to contact the publisher failed, only receiving the same automatic email. After sales support is nonexistent. Will not be renewing subscription...

Once again, GD Legacy is unreadable, the latest version of the mag doesn't show up even when the server is running. Which it hasn't for the third time in the last few days.. Tried deleting app to reinstall and it was 24 hours at least until I was able to redo the download, to find that the last months issue was still there, even though the paper edition has been out for days. As well as the standard guitarist edition. Which is also offline. So I can't even download issues that I have paid for now. Who knows when this will all be back up again? Very poor.

I've been a subscriber for years now,and since the digital age it's just got better and better,always a great read,with something for everyone

Glad they've finally stopped messing around with the app (for now). Looses 1 star because I used to really like the video front page guitarist had in the original app.

Great app! I love the Mag anyway but the app makes it so much better. It would have been 5 Stars but for one major problem... The printed version always appears on the shelves long before the App version!

Hard to read without zooming

Looked forward to the new version having been a print subscriber for many years and a digital subscriber when the print ones started going missing in the post. However I purchased a years subscription in February and it insists I still have to pay for each issue before it can be downloaded. Love the magazine and content, hate the inability to be able to get what I have already paid for. If an update appears and corrects this problem permanently I will give five stars without hesitation.

But none the less, this is a disappointing downgrade. Issues are now excruciatingly slow to download and you can't start reading Neil the whole thing has finished. Lets hope the content will be much improved to make up for it (to be fair guitarist aren't even pretending that this will be better, just easier for them to produce). We shall see whether my subscription gets cancelled IF my issue ever downloads. Update: finally downloaded the issue! Images fuzzy on ipad2 unless you zoom in. Adverts have returned which I feel is actually a bonus. Video sound is controlled by the iPad mute switch (like alerts) not volume like other videos or music. All in all they have taken everything that was great about the guitarist iPad experience and downgraded it. V sad. Quick update on my previous review as we have had an update which now makes download even slower. I have cancelled my subscription and will find something else to read. The content of the magazine is still pretty good, but as its virtually unreadable on an iPad 2......why bother!

It took so many hours to download the latest issue, even after a couple of resets, that I probably cancel my rolling subscriptions for the next issue.

Why is it that all my previously bought issues have gone? It's just goes to show that you never truly own anything that is digitally distributed.... Very disappointed with Guitarist Magazine!
