Practical Photoshop for Negative User Reviews
✓ Was good... now a rip-off/ not so muchEdited review below... this morning all my previous issues were accessible. You got a few stars back. The publishers at least could have let the contact go through and notified that it may take a day for the restoration of previous issues. Couldn’t purchase & download new issue, tried all the recommended solutions and now can’t restore previous issues... but it will allow be to buy them all over again... this is really bad... in need of a fix. Now tried contacting company through the “message” us option but the “send” option is grayed out.. so this is really bad....Version: 5.2.3
✓ Not workingAfter the last update this application is not working.Version: 3.1.4
✓ Issues don't downloadI recently subscribed to the online version for iPad but can't download anything without paying again. Had heard this was a big problem with this magazine after I bought it but was hoping problems w the website had been resolved. This is a rip-off as you pay up front for a subscription, get your first copy and then nothing after that with no way to get your money back. DON'T SUBSCRIBE ! WEBSITE DOES NOT WORK AND THEY KNOW IT!!!.Version: 1.9
✓ Don't get itDownloaded it hoping to learn something new. Spent money on a few if the issues since I had a redeem coupon. Spent over $20 only to find that it crashes every time.Version: 2.2.5
✓ MrSaying that this is £1 less than the actual magazine, NOT good value. No option to use / save images that would have been on the disk that came with the mag.....not worth £4.99 per issue...although back issues are £2.99 After a while..Version: 1.6
✓ You have to buy a package after downloadWhat a waste of time! once downloaded, you have to buy in order to try it out. Just add the price before downloading and save people time!!!.Version: 4.9.1
✓ $$$$$Don't be fooled- this app is NOT free!! The first thing you must do is buy a cover, then upload your picture. If you don't buy something, this app has nothing for you to do..Version: 1.6
✓ Free bitGlad i got the free one as i would not pay the price they charge wake up you lot.Version: 2.1.1
✓ NO CONTENT. AVOID!!!!I bought a annual subscription and not only did it cost more than advertised the old magazines cost money as well. That was not the worst of it. The preview of the magazine is exactly what is in it. No more. 11 or the 25 pages are ads reused in every magazine. Complete waste of time and money..Version: 3.8.3
✓ Bogus advertising 👎😝The app is free ... Ha. The app is a store front, NOT a free sample of your magazine. You say here's our new issue ... it says FREE under the app icon and people naturally think you are offering a free trial like almost every publisher here. The FREE or LITE version allows you to TRY before you buy ... you do not. That's BOGUS!.Version: 1.8
✓ Waste of timeI wasted download data for this? Total crap, wants 6.99 right after you finish download. Not free..Version: 1.6
✓ Nice idea but doesn't seem to workNice idea to put videos on, but they are very sluggish on iPad three and one or two i have looked at so far do not keep up with audio - especially those on the 'teach yourself photoshop' edition. If you could get the videos to work it would be great as you could watch on iPad with PS open on the computer. in common with a lot of magazines apps I also find the magazine itself is very slow to load on iPad 3. Glad I didn't subscribe !.Version: 2.1
✓ Poor service and overpricedInitially I was a subscriber of the magazine, but after numerous occasions where the magazine failed to turn up I chose not to renew my membership. Instead I decided to purchase the magazine from the retailers. However, I also chose to download this app, in order to be able to read my magazines anywhere without carrying them around. Unfortunately, the publishers have taken the decision to mislead the consumer by charging the £4.99 (same as hard copy which also has a CD and all the distribution costs, where this as an electronic version doesn't) per issue..... That price remains until it is superseded by the next months copy when the price goes down to £3.99. However, THEY DON'T TELL YOU THIS ANYWHERE ON THE SITE! Their answer when I spoke to them (after they failed to ring me back)... "It's just one of those things we do as a publisher" Poor poor service. They should be ashamed of themselves..Version: 2.0
✓ Poor performance practical photoshop-iPad 1Keeps crashing when reaching a certain page. For £4.99 a go I expect it to perform as it should. Think twice at the moment due to poor performance..Version: 3.1.8
✓ Doesn't work!Every single issue that comes in has problems installing! Not one has ever downloaded properly and I too have lost issue after issue. Sure sounds like it would be a great read, but I honestly wouldn't even know. Their customer support has also been no help, been referred to Apple and we all know that Apple is help responsible for these. Stay away until one day, though I purchased mine nearly a year ago they prove us wrong!.Version: 3.1.3
✓ No BargainI saw discount prices on Practical Photoshop magazine and purchased some of them. I discovered the magazines were only about 20 pages (down from about 115 pages). Not worth it..Version: 3.6
✓ AwfulI emailed with issues opening the Teach Youself Photoshop app last year. A fix was "coming soon". Appalling attitude and zero communication. I am disgusted. Sort it out! Listen to your customers..Version: 2.2.5
✓ So badJust can't get it to work. Please sort it out future.Version: 2.2.5
✓ Practical Photoshop- Cheap - poor content, nearly 50% is repeated from month to month. Save your money.......Version: 3.6
✓ UnhappyHave uploaded teach yourself photoshop and video does not sync with audio I am not happy have tried to contact someone for help but no luck. Paid £4.99 I think and it does not work :-(.Version: 2.1.1
✓ Not worth itWhat is the point of having a digital version if it is no cheaper than the paper version. Would have loved to have subscribed on my iPad but can get 3 issues for£5 if I subscribe to the paper version. Pure greed on the part of future publishing !! Wake up and smell the coffee, the cost should be at least 40% less than the paper magazine, no postage, cheaper to produce- no cd to burn or paper costs. If I can subscribe to the paper version with first 3 issues for £5 and then get 30% off the cover price paying with direct debit then sad to say no point going digital :-(.Version: 2.1.1
✓ False Advertising!!!I recently got a message from you guys claiming I could get a free issue because of Boxing Day! So i got the resent magazine, but was charged for it. Contacted support they sent me to iTunes. iTunes can't refund my money & suggested I contact these people! I got ripped off by false advertising!!! Don't pay any attention to their message!!! Not sure I want to get a subscription to this magazine now!!! I'm afraid I'll get burnt again! Great another message, offering a recent back issue for free, sorry I'm not falling for that twice!!! Not guaranteed to be free!!! See what screwing someone over can cost! If you have a free download for us mark it as free or better yet give it to us so that we can start reading it..Version: 2.2.5
✓ Photographer recently turned proOne star simply because you can't give it zero! Have been waiting for this app to become available for iPhone. Just downloaded and the app won't even open. I'll be recommending that my students don't buy the app or the magazine as there is clearly no interest in selling a useable piece of software..Version: 2.2.5
✓ Too expensive!!We can get better info on the net for free and you expect us to pay that much for your subscriptions? Crazy!.Version: 1.0
✓ A Step BackwardsThe best thing I can say about the "new" Practical Photoshop is that the lower price is nice. But as the old saying goes, you get what you pay for. The tutorials are still well done, but there are fewer in each issue (a lot fewer!). And there is a lot less in the way of editorial content. Most importantly, it seems that reader contributed content has been sacrificed as well. This was a good source of useful information on using a challenging product. I fear that like Photoshop CC, the changes here are going to result in a loss of interest by the viewing public..Version: 3.4.4.1
✓ To the complainersIt's free to walk into a bookstore, but do they give away their magazines? No. So, why expect to get free stuff online? People still put in weeks of time to prepare your favorite magazines. They do so because it's a job and expect to get paid. You don't get paid by giving things away for free. So shut up..Version: 1.0
✓ None of the video links workSome informative info in print but very very frustrating to find links to video tutorials that lead to nowhere. I won’t be buying anymore issues..Version: 6.0.6
✓ The tutorials comentery runs to the end but the video stops or gets out of sync have you any ideas?I am having the same problems in touch with pixel mags waiting a reply having done what they say with no luck.Version: 2.1.1
✓ They are crooksOkay, is I bought the three month subscription, which was fine...then they automatically renewed it for another three months I was still okay with it...then I uninstalled the app while I switch iPads, and lost all my past issues, I still got charged for the issues, and agin automatic renewal of the subscription. I wrote several emails to the company, no response. Do your self a favor and don't get this app or any subscription. I would also highly recommend Advanced Photoshop if you want any photoshop mag...any but this one to be sure..Version: 2.2.5
✓ Stupid!!!This was a waste of my time…I know these ppl need to make money, but it would be nice if it told you the its going to cost money.Version: 1.2
✓ FRAUD!!This App is NOT FREE!! Deceptive. I deleted this app as soon as I found out that they actually charge you. I hope that this app doesn't automatically attempt to get payment although I have deleted this app..Version: 1.6
✓ Worst App EverI bought the latest issue & the app no longer opens! I've deleted & reinstalled it several times but it won't open.Version: 2.2.5
✓ NOT Free it's a lieThere is nothing free here. App just gives the right to buy the magazine. Three is no free sample to see if you might like it. It's a bait and switch type of move. It turns me off and makes me walk away from their magazine..Version: 1.8
✓ Rubbish😤You think this is a really good photoshop app but all it is is a stupid magazine. Very unhappy😠😭.Version: 3.8.3
✓ ProblemsCan't open my magazines. Keep going round in circles. Newsstand to library to newsstand. Can't access to read. Getting very fed up..Version: 3.8.1
✓ RIp OffDon't bother, when you take out a subscription you get some issues you can download as your subscription says but then you have to pay for them whilst your subscription is still active. Also because of the useless instructions they give you to solve the problem this means that any previous issues ca not be down loaded before you have to pay for them again. Keep we'll away from them.Version: 3.8.1
✓ Not free, just a gateway to paid issuesAnd not cheap even. Online magazines for $6? Not worth it, especially on an iPhone. Limited value. Make them $1 and issue and clearly indicate that there are no free issues and this would be better..Version: 1.0
✓ Very BuggyThis version is very buggy. Every few days, all my purchased issues would disappear and I would have to re-download them again; I've over 10 issues. It's quite annoying and frustrating. I will not purchase any more issue until this is resolved. Whenever I'm able to access them I just love the articles, tips and techniques. I look forward to try and use them on my photoshop projects..Version: 4.9.4
✓ CrashCrash when try open any isue. £1.99 for something can not read. :-( I try delete app and download again on my ipad air, then my magazine is ready to download but i have to pay again for the same issue. Not having any magazine can not check is crash again when i opening. Give me my money back..Version: 3.8.1
✓ PoorRepetitive, hardly any new info and difficult to cancel..Version: 3.6
✓ Apps always freeze or even crashI have been trying to read practical photoshop for a while but the app always freeze or even crash. It's rather unpleasant. I tried to restart but it doesn't make any difference,..Version: 3.1.4
✓ There are no issues to buy!!This is stupid, the app is "practically" blank....Version: 3.6.5
✓ Not goodCrashes all the time and can't download latest issue.Version: 2.2.5
✓ Nice mag but way too expensive$65 a year!!!! For a magazine??? Come on guys...we're photographers, not millionaires!.Version: 2.0.2
✓ Yes, the price is highI get several offers from magazine companies all the time with prices as low as $1 an issue per year. I know Apple probably takes a cut, but that's not an excuse for over-charging..Version: 1.0
✓ Not free ):Why say its a free app when you have to pay to actually buy the magazine?.Version: 1.0
✓ Practical Photoshop . Beware you only get half a magJust purchased a copy and its only 25 pages long. Not the same as the hard copy. Wrote 3 emails to Future Publishing and they haven't bothered writing back. Rip off and No Customer Support..Version: 3.6
✓ MisleadingThe placeholder is free but issues are $6 each. With no printing costs, modified smaller content, an no samples/software like the physical mag. It's not worth the same price..Version: 1.0
✓ Stupidest thing ever.Don't download. It's not free even though it says it is. And it has nothing to with picture editing. At all. Whatsoever..Version: 2.1.1
✓ Practical PhotoshopI liked the full magazine much more than the current shorter version..Version: 3.6.5
✓ Not freeWhy have a "Free" label when there is absolutely nothing here that is free. If I want to buy a magazine I will, but don't tell me something is free when it isn't..Version: 1.0
✓ Ridiculous PriceNo paper cost, No press cost, No print cost, No postage cost and it is still £44.99. NO THANKS too expesive You must think iPad users are so stupid. It should be much cheaper. No more than £7.69 for 12 issues. DO NOT FALL FOR IT.Version: 2.1
✓ Practical Photoshop SadnessI bought this mag ipad edition for one year. Currently I cannot afford it so I let my subscription lapse. Warning!!! ...... All the mags you BOUGHT go away. I have no mags that I bought for reference!! That seems mean and poor business practice. As a business owner I would never treat my client base in this manner!.Version: 3.7.2
