Real Simple Magazine

I had been reading real simple since 2003. I love the content. I also started reading through the app 5 years a go. Worse app. They have never made a stable app. The download is slow when it works, restoring purchase from iTunes subscription is a nightmare! So unreliable. I say don’t waste time with their till they get their act together! One would think 5 years of loyalty should allow them to catch up on stabilising the app. It’s is still an unreliable app!

Pricey compared to other publications but interface is nice. Hardly crashes.

I have written at least 1/2 DOZEN reviews with no outcome. This is the worst app developer. It is beyond frustrating to say the least. I don’t know how Martha Stewart can actually support this magazine and not hear the voices of the people that have paid subscriptions. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO OPEN ANY NEW ISSUES FOR MONTHS. I HAVE A 1 YEAR SUBSCRIPTION THAT EXPIRES IN OCTOBER/24.. I WANT MY PAYMENT REFUNDED SINCE I CANNOT READ ANY ISSUES. I HAVE CONTACTED APPLE AND ‘NEVER’ GET ANY TECH HELP. THE APP DEVELOPER NEVER RESPONDS EXCEPT WITH A STUPID ‘THANK YOU FOR YOUR REVIEW’ HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE ..

Every single month I have to report that my iTunes subscription is not working. What a pain.

I have a paid subscription thru 2024 and cannot open up new issues, it’s telling me I have to pay for the issue… this has to be the 2nd most frustrating app since the IOS update. I’m getting no technical help at all … when I requested refund thru Apple I was denied for reason unknown. It’s bad enough I lost all the issues of Martha Stewart’s magazine that I had for years. It’s sickening when I see the celebrities who push there products, books etc that live like queens off people like myself who have supported them for years.

The one thing so far is it won’t expand the page to read the smaller print on ads

The page in the magazine with links to your website are not easily found in the app. I have to get to it from the web. Why not put QR codes on the page instead of the link so rates can get right to the article/ recipe/ ideas, etc

And also I’m not a big fan of the magazine overall with the new editor. This magazine has seen WAY better days :(

I’m having the same issues as everyone else. I cannot access my issues in the app without paying for them. I have a subscription,so I’m getting the hard copies in the mail, but I would like to use my tablet as well!

When does the Jan/Feb 2023 issue become available?
