PhotoPlus for Negative User Reviews
✓ Reader view??I don't understand how a magazine wouldn't have a easy reading view. Zooming in and out to read an article is horrible. Even comic books have learned to make reading them enjoyable on a phone why can't magazines?.Version: 4.4.1
✓ Magazine not comingI have enjoyed the magazine. However, the magazine expected in August, has not been realised! My subscription expires in December 2018!!! Will I receive the August edition and subsequent months!! I am very unhappy as I enjoy the magazine content!,.Version: 5.2.3
✓ Not USA.Based an d printed in England. All add's , story lines ect are are from G.B. STORES. Any comment to the magazine take at least 4 weeks to answer. Apple why did you go offshore for news stand?.Version: 3.8.1
✓ Too expensive$60 is way too much for a digital edition of this magazine. Especially when you consider that it is focused to the loyals that have probably already invested 100s or even more likely 1,000s of dollars in Canon equipment..Version: 4.0.3
✓ Content is repeated with Photography WeelkyEditions are extremely slow to download, I'm on a 100Mbps Internet connection. Content is repeated with their another magazine Photography Weekly..Version: 3.6
✓ $60 dollars!!! Are you guys insane?$60 dollars!!! Are you guys insane? I can almost understand why it might cost that much when you have a British magazine being sold in the US. But this is a digital version, ridiculously overpriced..Version: 4.8
✓ Constant Crashes with OS8Since upgrading to OS8 app is not working. The app will open however once in the app trying to open any issue results in crash. I have 8 magazine subscriptions in newsstand and this is the only one not working. It worked great up until the upgrade..Version: 3.8.1
✓ BrokenThis app is broken....please remove or fix!!.Version: 3.6
✓ MisleadingApp states is free. This is not true. Once you download this "free" app, to see anything you must buy an edition or subscribe. A cunning ploy to get you to consider their product.Version: 1.6
✓ Ok but not specialOk .... But not special .. A lot of articles the same through the year.Version: 3.6
✓ App not workingI have a I tunes subscription for the e-mag. App was not allowing access to latest editions on the subscription even after restore i-tunes purchases. Now on iOS 14.5.1 Reinstalled the app. Did not fix the problem. Now it does not connect to the store so no access to any thing..Version: 6.0.6
✓ App is free but needs subscriptions for issues... It's not free... Without issues the app is uselessApp is free but needs subscriptions for issues... It's not free... Without issues the app is useless.Version: 1.0
✓ Could be way betterQuite often quits unexpectedly , also does not remember where you where, every time have to choose magazine again you left off with..Version: 3.8.301
✓ Too ExpensiveI have subscribed to this magazine and simply wanted to reduce the space that they take up, as I tend to keep all copies. However, I have to agree with everyone else, the price is just way too much. I appreciate there are costs but if magazines do not sell, they are simply waste. The electronic version is there and can be duplicated with no additional costs even if only one person buys it. Make it cheaper and I will even buy back issues. At this price, its not going to increase the sales..Version: 2.2.5
✓ Won't load!😠Disappointing!! subscribed and it will not load. It completely crashes my iPad scrambling the screen freezing and making it reset! I'm going to unsubscribe and I think I'm better of sticking with the traditional paper mag from the newsagent. It also will not restore my previous purchase. Just crashes every time..Version: 3.1.3
✓ Is this a scam????Got a subscription via iTunes. They claim my email is not registered and I can't login. Seems like a scam..Version: 3.8.301
✓ ProblematicApp seems very problematic compared to other Newstand apps I have. Sometimes store won't load, downloading issues very slow, sometimes an issue gets stuck as "queued" and never downloads, and sometimes app crashes for no reasons. Seems even more problematic in IOS8. BTW issues stuck in queued state require I delete apps and all issues and start all over. Poor quality app results in negative experience with good magazine..Version: 3.8.1
✓ AbandonWare???Dead on ios8? About to file for refund for my past purchase as i cant open the issues.....Version: 3.8.1
✓ Too expensiveThere's no printing to pay for, no paper to pay for, no delivery charge and most of all no cover CD. So, why the hell would I pay £4.99 which is the same price as the hard copy??? It should be £2.50 at the most and then I'll buy it. Until then, not a chance in hell..Version: 2.0.2
✓ Some good but a lot of repeat of content.The repeat content from issue to issue. And they constantly try to get you to complete your library by buying all back issues. Every issue they have. Enough already. I can’t even open the app without the “complete your library” sales pitch. Absolutely not. I wish I never subscribed, I won’t renew. The content is based out of the U.S. but that doesn’t matter, because photography is the same no matter where. And product prices and availability is different no matter where you buy it even in the states. But enough with complete your library!!!.Version: 4.9.5
✓ Can't purchase any issueI installed as wanted to see if this was better than Zinio version but I can't even download the free issue. That what u call it keeps spinning and nothing happens..Version: 2.2.5
✓ Can't justify the priceI used this app with the free introductory magazine offer. This is a great magazine for any Canon user, and the app works great too. But I don't know how the publishers can justify the full £4.99 price for an e-magazine, when the paper based magazine costs exactly the same and you are paying for the printing and cover disk. I won't be buying any digital version of the magazine until the prices are dropped to reflect the reduced overheads costs and they stop trying to rip off iPad and iPhone users who they expect will pay these premium prices. A star for the app and a star for the magazine.Version: 1.0
✓ ConfusedAs a regular reader of photo plus magazine I decided to get it on iPad and subscribed for an initial 3 month subscription. Firstly I'd like to know how to access the video tutorials I used to get with the print version, it says in the digital version that there is a website to access it but I'm damned if I can find it. Secondly, I have recieved a notification that the next issue is available to me, but can I find a way to download it? You guessed it, no. This really does need sorting, and based on my experience I wouldn't recommend it..Version: 1.8
✓ Don't bother...£4.99 for a digital copy, the same price as the hard copy??? You kidding me, and without the content of the CD. Don't bother....Version: 1.8
✓ DisappointedThis magazine is advertised as free but isn't. This is really deceptive and should be stopped/changed so people are aware that you need to pay to get the magazine. No sample or cut down version? I wouldn't buy a magazine from a news agent without being able to have a flick through it. The price is also as much as a physical print copy of a magazine... It's overpriced for digital media. I'd have considered it if it were only a couple of dollars a copy..Version: 1.6
✓ No free issueAs a print subscriber I wanted to see how usable iPad version was. It says "free issue to download". Not true. It has 'look inside' with small image of pages but not legible or zoomable. Fix by removing that claim or giving a proper free issue please. And it is too expensive for what is just a PDF of print mag with what I guess has no new features or navigation..Version: 2.2.5
✓ Magazine is good the App is poorI found the hard copy of the Magazine good reading and containing a lot of helpful tips. The app performance is pretty poor and often needs to be removed and reinstalled to allow you to download magazine updates, unfortunately this means that you also need to re-download any magazines that you wanted to keep.Version: 3.8.1
✓ Not Free,Would have thought you could access 1 issue before deciding whether to sign up for subscription..Version: 1.8
✓ Free? NOT!!!Says its free but it's not. Very miss leading..Version: 1.8
✓ Still UnreliableThis app has cost me a fortune over time. The unreliable purchase recording is so frustrating. Even after many, many wipes and re-installations there are issues in my Library which have 'Download' right next to them but when selected the app asks me to pay £6.99 AGAIN!!! Rip off and annoying..Version: 5.6.3
✓ Great, just for canon!Can’t comprehend why there are still people complaining about digital magazines advertising they’re for free. The APP is FREE to download and the subscription prices are clearly stated... :) Although ASOS and net-a-porter are completely free app AND magazine issue downloads! :) I would suggest that the photoplus magazine developers offer at least 2 free samples which will allow more users to review the contents and ease of use and buy more issues if they like it. It’s no different to potential customers taking a quick flip through at a physical news agency. Do this and you’ll find happier users. Thanks!.Version: 1.6
✓ DisappointingConsidering it is the same price as the print edition but without the cover disc I really expect more than just a screenshot replica. Give us some interactivity and added content! After cancelling my subscription that I had running since issue 2, think I will be resubscribing to paper when there is a good gift on offer..Version: 1.6
✓ Terrible supportI bought several magazines from iTunes. Apple took my money. Cannot access magazines. Went to apple for support. After two days Apple emailed me to go to storefront I bought mags from. No help, no magazines..Version: 3.8.301
✓ Performance issueSince version 3 the application is unusable on my Ipad3 I literally have all the back issue and I subscribed. It takes more than 20 sec to open the apps and then it's sluggish as soon as I download an a magazine from the ones i've subscribe. Multiple mail to support team with no answer even that part use to work well. I guess success bring issue and lack of service. Would be great to get my app working. In the meantime I've rolled back to version 2.x it's not perfect but it's way faster..Version: 3.2.1
✓ AmateurishNot particularly well written not of relevance to advanced users.Version: 6.0.6
✓ DissapointingI was so looking forward to this and so cancelled my paper subscription but why should it cost me more with out the cover mounted extras!!! This is a rip off, considering giving up on the mag altogether. :(.Version: 1.0
✓ Too high price!Not paying such a high price ! Can get better info on net for free..Version: 1.0
✓ Update killed my app!!!!!!!!!App now doesn't open. Paying subscription with NO product to show for it. Sort it out QUICK!!!!!.Version: 4.8
✓ Crashes fix it and fastGuys beta test better. This version crashed five times while trying to read the latest issue. Fix it soon or I will go back to getting my fix with other mags..Version: 3.1.4
✓ Doesn't Open - Don't waste your moneyAnd they want me to pay for a subscription?.Version: 3.4.4
✓ GasyauI agree with the other reviewers, that it is difficult for the publishers to justify the same price as the print copy with less content ie access to the video tutorials. Some adaptations for the iPad would have been nice, rather than a straight copy from the print version. It is not always easy to read the print without sometimes zooming in. Being able to view the photos in a whole page would have been nice. Without any improvements to this app, I will not be renewing after my 3 months..Version: 1.9
✓ One device?I love the magazine and have been buying it from day one for myself and my wife to read. I thought it would make sense to try the digital copy for when I am out and about. So it's a bit ridiculous that this is only allowed to be on just one device at a time! Should my wife and I have bought two subscriptions for the magazine to read?.Version: 3.8.301
