Seventeen Magazine US for Negative User Reviews
✓ Keeps crashing...AGAINStarting last month, whenever I tried to open the magazine the screen stayed black. Eventually, after weeks of trying to get it successfully open, I got it. However, ONCE AGAIN I am having this issue with October magazine. This is seriously angering me and I think I might cancel my subscription. PLEASE UPDATE TO PERMANENTLY FIX THIS!!!.Version: 2.2.1
✓ Use to be my Favorite Magazine...HA, I was dummmmbbbbbI use to actually like this magazine, but after it's makeover, it seemed to get...dumber. I'm not saying I don't appreciate "girl power" or anything like that, but it's just annoying to see it in every issue. Also, I think this magazine just wants to be popular because they keep using words like "bae" and other lingo that will quickly wear out. Overall, a terrible product...DO NOT SUBSCRIBE TO THIS MAGAZINE!!!!!!!!'.Version: 3.4.0
✓ No content to reviewImagine a newsstand loaded with magazines, all of them sealed except for their covers. Not a single magazine to allow you to thumb through the pages to decide if you want to buy it. Each magazine would cost you $3 just to crack its cover to see inside. Would you buy any magazines that way? Welcome to the world that Hearst wants for you here on your iPad. Only the reader is free. Everything else needs to be purchased site unseen..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Won't openI loved this app at first. The idea of paperless magazines was amazing. I loved how interactive to was and I didn't have to flip all the pages. Then the new issues wouldn't open. I thought it was just a minor glitch so I got this version. Now none of my issues will load and I cant even open it half the time. Very disappointed, hope everything gets back to normal..Version: 2.2.2
✓ FrustratedSo, when I downloaded the June 2013 magazine, the app crashed right when it finished the download, and when I pulled it up again, all previous purchases were no longer downloaded and refused to do so. At the advice of the app help page, I uninstalled the app, reinstalled it and then restored my purchases. It only restored 5 out of 12 magazines. I lost seven magazines and could not restore them - in fact, they were no longer even listed as purchased. I contacted Seventeen and they replied back that they were aware of the missing issues problem and were looking to fix it. I don't know if any of the updates were supposed to help with that, but I've never been able to restore the seven magazines I lost. I still use old magazines! The clothes might become out of date, but I still use the makeup tutorials and the hair sections and the exercises in the magazines! And I lost all of those! I'm ticked off to say the least. There was supposed to be a solution and there never was. I payed for those magazines! That's money out the window! And, probably any chance of me getting a magazine off of this app again. I'll probably just get a paper subscription. That way, if I lose magazines, I'll at least be able to find them again..Version: 2.5.1
✓ ...I love the magazine itself, but I cannot figure out how to sign in with my current subscription, so I am probably deleting this app. Can anyone tell me how to log in with my current subscription? If not, I would recommend to the publishers that they fix this flaw..Version: 1.0.7
✓ AmazingI absolutely love this app. I have a lot of the magazines. The only thing that I don't like about it is that it tends to crash a lot. Also, sometimes when I open an issue it only shows black. The magazine doesn't pop up. Other than that, I love it!.Version: 2.2.2
✓ Doesn't work.I bought this months magazine and it took forever to download and then when it finally downloaded, I press it to read it and the screen went black and it didn't work. So I wasted my money..Version: 1.0.7
✓ No way to link print subscriptionI subscribe to the print version of Seventeen, but I cannot download the digital issues unless I pay for them through the Newsstand app, which is ridiculous, who wants to pay for the same magazine twice?! Come on Seventeen, get on board, other beauty magazines I subscribe to offer this service at no additional charge for customers who subscribe to the print version!!!.Version: 2.2.2
✓ Good Idea, But..This app is nice in theory, but I am definitely not happy that I cannot use my print subscription to view the magazines in the app. And even once you get that sorted out, I'll still have to pay a discounted price for something I have already paid a subscription fee for? Ridiculous..Version: 2.2.1
✓ AGH!!This is my favorite magazine ever but, I downloaded an issue, went to read the issue and the screen went completely black. Now I still cannot read the issue I payed for. Please fix this or I will have to delete the app-.-.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Good but what about my subscription?I really like this app and I enjoy the e editions of the magazine but last month I payed for a yearly subscription and with this new issue it says that I have to buy it. What gives???? Also, the app crashes constantly. If you could fix these problems, i would rate five stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.Version: 2.4.2
✓ Buying November 2014 issueI'm trying to buy the November 2014 issue with One Direction on the cover and it goes to process my request and I feel like I've sat there for five minutes, having to keep the app open no less, for my magazine to download. Wondered if another update is coming out soon..Version: 3.3.2
✓ Nice but....This magazine was nice, but there are a few problems. I started downloading this on a good wifi connection at 9 am and was able to read it at 5 pm! (While it downloaded I barely used my iPad and it only seemed to make progress when I was in the 17 app.) Also I don't like it when I'm reading in portrait mode and accidentally go to landscape then back to portrait that I'm off the page I originally was on. Now the latest issue of the magazine won't even work -- It's a black screen! This happened after the last update, which you had to download in order to continue purchasing mags. Oh, and for the people who complain, "This mag isn't free!" think of it this way: would you rather pay for the app AND magazine or just the magazine? This company has to make money --- have you ever seen it on the stand in the stores? Their sales would plummet if they gave free copies away in the app. But on the good side I like the video integration and exclusive iPad user deals. Fix those problems and I'd rate it 5 stars..Version: 2.1.1
✓ Charging twice for the same issue is pure greedWhen I bought this subscription for my daughters, I double-checked to make sure it was a print+digital subscription. For whatever reason, we were able to view the first issue by mail and online, but now, Apple wants to charge again. I'm pretty sure I'm not the only parent/subscriber who is canceling her subscription due to this greedy policy..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Um can't do anythingI wish I could actually use the app because it just crashes non stop, the screen turns black every time I open the magazine and it takes forever for a magazine to "unzip" I really want to read a magazine so I could say something positive but the app won't let me do anything so please fix it.Version: 2.4.2
✓ This is getting so annoying!!!It really PISSES me off that the developers of this app haven't fix this issue with the black screen. I really was happy when I had this app and paid for the year subscription and it work perfectly fine....until after 2 or 3 magazines that it was freezing on a page, and I was okay with that issue. What gets me furious is the fact I can't even access it cause there's just a black screen that just stays there....so thanks for making me pay for something that doesn't even work, Seventeen! If the developers of this apps makes an update that fixes the issues what other people have said it would of been 5 stars....Version: 1.0.7
✓ Good, could be BetterThis app is good and the magazine is interactive is okay at best, but we should be able to click on products featured and be taken there, but what really bugs me with this app is the subscription service. I get 17 the print issue, I have had it for 5 years and have 2 years left. I should not have to pay for both print and iPad edition! Customers who are already subscribed should get iPad version free, 2 other iPad version magazines I have do that. So why not 17?.Version: 1.0.6
✓ PointlessEverytime I try to buy the year subscription, it won't go through. An error comes up saying "Oops! Purchase unable to go through" or something along those lines. It's not my credit card cause that works fine. It won't even let me purchase one issue. No in app purchases will work. Fix please..Version: 1.0.3
✓ Incredibly annoyedI bought a subscription a couple months ago and I downloaded the hunger games issue and whenever i try to read it, the screen just goes to black and I can't do anything with the app at all. And it's also annoying that there's no website or anything that can help me with it..Version: 1.0.6
✓ Cant downloadI hate it it can't freakin download!good thing it was free!😡😡😡.Version: 1.0.7
✓ ...Why are the magazines not cheaper...I know you have to make money but you don't need to pay full price when you can probably get the same magazine in the store for way cheaper I know I cannot afford to by a 3 dollar magazine. That is stupid and it should change.Version: 2.1.1
✓ Can't access anythingThis app doesn't allow print subscribers to access the magazines they already received in the mail. Also when trying to change your password it doesn't work and says it couldn't process it. Very disappointed I couldn't read my magazines on my ipad that I already own and very disappointed in the app..Version: 2.5.0
✓ Very DisappointedI am constantly reading Seventeen Mag. When I found out I could purchase magazines on my iPad, I was thrilled. But the app has let me down. After I have purchased the magazine it takes a painful amount of time to download if it downloads at all. And if I exit the app, it will not function properly afterwards. I hope Seventeen will step up on the app front..Version: 2.3.1
✓ Need to login with existing accountThis app would be great if you were able to login with an existing subscription from the print magazine, because no one wants to buy the magazine twice. I think people would like this much better if this critical feature was added..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Subscribers can't access their issues.I bought this thinking that, like the "wired" app, I would be able to access the issues of seventeen that I own, as I am a subscriber. I have been subscribed to seventeen for several years. However, you are only able to read the issue by buying the virtual one. So if you download this thinking that you can read your subscription on your iPad, you are wasting your time. Disappointing..Version: 1.0.4
✓ What the heck?I expected so much more from Seventeen. The magazines occasionally crash and take forever to load. And there's NO MORE INTERACTIVITY! You used to be able to click on photos and see exclusive photos of celebrities, but they took that feature away! Now, I basically pay extra money for this magazine just because it's on the iPad. Save the money- just buy the print version!.Version: 2.3.1
✓ Let paper subscribers also have digital issues, added to their subscription.I think that paper subscribers should also have a digital copy subscription that is added in the membership. It's a great way, if they lost or damage their copy....so they could see on their tablets, etc... Seventeen should be like those other magazines that let their clients have digital copies that are free with their subscription. I'm really tempted to unsubscribe from seventeen..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Black screenI recently purchased the September issue but every time I tap on it to read it, the screen turns black and freezes. When I go back home and tap seventeen again, the screen is still black and frozen. I haven't even seen the first page of the september issue after I bought it..Version: 2.2.2
✓ DownloadThe magazine it's self is really good and the pop outs are really cool but it takes forever to download could defiantly be a 5 star app.Version: 1.0.4
✓ Seventeen app reviewThis app is on the HORRIBLE side. Ugh. First it turned black in the moving pictures, then when I tried to zoom in, it would not scroll around the page. Finally, when you turn your ipad, it freezes and starts flipping out to a bunch of pages. Otherwise the app is okay. I love the interactive links and stuff. Seventeen magazine is great, except for some of the outfits....that they put on models. Try a different style like Miley Cyrus's dress down outfits. And do more dress up with pant nice top and a cardigan. Try something WITHOUT heels. I personally think the magazine is great. The app has it's peaks..Version: 1.0.3
✓ I like the magazine but can't download itThe download see is too slow and every time I walk away, the screen was locked and it stop downloading ! After a few miutes, the download failed bcs connection to the server failed! I want my 1yr subscription money back!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ FixI downloaded the one direction issue of this magazine. When the download says "100% Unzipping" it goes on forever and my connection is very strong. I exit the app and it says its in my library but when I go to click on it the black screen pops up. I then archive it and try again but the same thing occurs. Please fix this as soon as possible..Version: 2.2.2
✓ OkTook over four hours for the magazine to load and while it was loading you had to keep the app up the whole time, but the magazine is very fun and interactive, but zinio works much better..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Ugh!This app won't work! I try to read the mag but it just closes and goes back to news stand! It's such a rip off!😡.Version: 2.2.2
✓ I wish I could zero starsI looove seventeen magazine but this app barely works and the support is non-exsistant. The other magazine apps by this developer have problems too. It's a shame that Hearst magazine won't even read the reviews here and fix the bugs. I have to say that until they make the support better or fix their apps DO NOT BY THIS APP OR MY OTHERS BY HEARST MAGAZINE. I have already waisted over $10 on their apps and I not even get to enjoy the issues. Huuuuge waste of money..Version: 1.0.7
✓ :(I am very disappointed! Every time I try to buy an issue I have trouble downloading! 😞 it's so frustrating 😖.Version: 2.3.1
✓ It isn't workingI just downloaded the app and it isn't working. I can't Even open it.. Please fix it :).Version: 3.3.2
✓ PotentialThis app has the ability to be amazing. The only problem I have that prevents me from even using this is the fact that I'm not able to use my already paid subscription to the print magazine to read the digital version. If the makers would look into this, they would have something no one would be able to complain about..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Read and please respond you developers!This is ok I guess... it’s so ridiculous how y’all make us pay for this! I literally can’t look at anything because it only gives me a couple minutes to look at each magazine! And personally I can’t purchase anything so that’s very unfair! So thanks for making this the worst app ever !😑.Version: 22.0
✓ CrashingI normally love this magazine but I recently downloaded a new magazine after uploading but it wouldn't load and kept saying unzipping so I shut my device down after numerous tries of loading the magazine. When I tried to pull up the app though it just crashes. Please fix..Version: 2.5.0
✓ Ehh?This app wouldn't be so bad if they fixed the bugs in it. I love the effects you get while reading, but I'm a bit frustrated that although I'm subscribed through my iPad I'm receiving bills to sign up for a paper subscription... Then at times the pages freeze for no reason. Fix the bugs and I'll fix my rating but for now I'm not 100% happy with this app..Version: 1.0.3
✓ Something to think aboutPlease think about adding a way for seventeen users and subscribers to access an already existing seventeen account. I get the issues every month in the mail, but I want them on my iPad. But why would I want to pay $3 for something I already have. Pleas think about this! I've had this app since January but haven't used it because I don't want to spend the extra money. It is now the end of march..Version: 1.0.7
✓ BadDownloaded a magazine went to read it and the screen went completely black. I waited for a while but it never loaded fix soon plaese!.Version: 1.0.7
