WIRED Magazine

Got a digital subscription and it’s not verified by their systems. Send emails to customer care who verified my subscription and send me instructions that do not work. I address the issue tones of times and all of the reps send me the same instructions as if they are not listening. Honestly how can you position yourself as a publication of all things digital and the future and whatever when you cannot handle stuff like that. Money out the window for me. Stay away

My subscription was the worst experience. 1) I was charged far more than what was shown to me when I chose to subscribe, 40 eur instead of 10. 2) I never received I single copy of the magazine. 3) Worst of all, I tried to cancel my subscription but the site is designed to make cancellation so difficult that after 30 minutes I gave up. Days later I tried again with no luck and I have now requested by email to cancel. Let’s see if this works. Unacceptable experience from the beginning to the end.

I've never downrated an app before, but this one crashes on my iPad 2 as soon as I upgraded it to iOS 6. Launching the app shows the splash screen... and then it kicks you back to the iPad main screen. Quit the app, reboot the iPad, the works. Nada. It keeps on crashing. Oh, how nice, I'm paying for the privilege of not being able to read the magazine :( Well, when it was working it was a good magazine app.

Τα αρθρα του ειναι πραγματικά παρα πολυ ενδιαφεροντα και σε απορροφούν. Αξίζει τα λεφτά του και περιμένω να δω το επόμενο τευχος που θα ειναι για retina οθονη γιατι αλλιως πραγματικα αδικειται σε νεο ipad

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.

Just canceled subscription. Just too hard to read with dinosaur of an app

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….

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.

Have a print subscription but this app suddenly won’t let me access the digital version after years of working.

Something changed recently where the layout of each issue has changed. It used to be an article view where the article was formatted for digital devices and the words were large and able to be highlighted. The contents page also showed every article that you could jump to. Something in the last few weeks changed and now it’s just straight images from the physical magazine which is very hard to read because the text is small. On an iPad I have to constantly zoom in to parts of the page to read. The text is not highlightable and when you zoom in far the text becomes fuzzy. The contents also just says page 1, page 2, etc. 😕
