PC Pro Magazine

Continuing the woes with this abysmal app. Since the last update, even the offline feature doesn’t work. You can tap to download locally, but if you try and read it without an internet connection, the app just freezes. Absolutely useless when travelling on things like planes! As before, a good magazine ruined by a terrible app. Surprised with all the experts in the magazine, they can’t get one of them to sort this out!

Each page is not fully displayed, you need to scroll up and down, there’s no way to zoom in/out. No interactive table of contents to enable navigation to a chosen article. This is a very basic viewing app.

Disappointingly old-fashioned UI. Shouldn’t have to search through a bunch of print-facsimile pages to find, e.g., reviews for printers that excel in photo-printing.

The app has never been great, but worked okay. However the latest update has made it worse. No easy way to jump to pages in the magazine and not as easy to view a full page on my iPad. With a magazine that is 100+ pages and the real world articles are past page 100, means this is really frustrating. The digital version of PC Pro always seems to be the poor relation, with new issues coming out days later than the printed version (how does that work!). So it’s a good magazine, let down by poor app for digital readers and getting worse. Amendment: I’ve found out there is an obscure looking icon on the top bar for scrolling through pages, but not obvious and it still doesn’t let you jump to a page number. If I was cynical, I would think they wanted to ensure we see all the adverts as we scroll through.

Just subscribed but there seems no way to access a page you add to the scrapbook.

Magazine is OK. happy enough to subscribe but twice now the new editions have not downloaded. Hope customer support fix issue promptly.

The same problem as the last two reviews. No way to buy or subscribe it seems. It’s the same with the Computeractive app - also Dennis publishing. Been like this since October. Respond please Dennis… Even better, fix it! Four stars for when it’s working…

Since October 2021 Am having nothing but problems with pcpro app. The ability to buy single issues has vanished from the app! So I started a digital subscription, the instructions to access my account are all wrong! They don’t work! So frustrating , have been with pcpro for years.

While the scrapbook option is ok for single pages, it would be much more useful to have a genuine bookmark option to allow re-reading useful articles that run over several pages.

Has suddenly become very crash mamin git hard to read magazines,
