Men’s Health Magazine for Negative User Reviews
✓ Can't download a single magazineApp always gives me an error message when intry to download an issue. Glad I still get the paper version in the mail!.Version: 2.5.4
✓ Refuses to restore my subscriptionI can no longer read this magazine because it will not restore my fully paid subscription. I’ve tried multiple times and even though it says it restored, it still wants me to pay for a subscription. I’ve sent multiple emails via the in-app help and gotten no response. If it doesn’t get fixed soon, I’m going to cancel and request a refund of my annual payment. This used to work just fine..Version: 18.0
✓ Log inI have an account I have 20 in print magazines sitting in my lap right now and I’m having a hell of a time trying to access my online account to be able to always have them on my iPad so I can throw these away. This app has made it impossible to do so and there is no customer support. whatsoever..Version: 14.0
✓ Weird.I already seem to have a subscription but I just signed up for another to log in. The system wants me to read the magazine, but it does not support the website interface. I’m not impressed so far. I’m sure there is some user error but this shouldn’t be that hard at three bucks a month. Make it better please..Version: 25.0
✓ Print?Echoing what has already been written; this app would receive 3.5 stars from me if my print subscription gave me access to the digital copies of the magazine. As things currently stand, it is a brazen insult from MH to have to purchase the same content twice. Totally destroys any goodwill associated with the brand..Version: 1.1
✓ Update bugsSubscribed via iPhone a while ago. Working great initially. Now with the update - problems galore! It tells me to sign in with my account (didn't need to before)... Does not work with my info of email + postal code. I tried making a new account... does not accept my info. There's no other given options at this point. It left me with only 3 monthly magazines (old ones + did not even leave me with all the other magazines I was able to open before). I don't mind if it no longer works; I just hope it doesn't charge me anymore..Version: 2.5.2
✓ Can't access digital subscriptionThis app needs to be fixed ASAP as it does not allow recent subscribers such as me to unlock the magazines. I've tried everything listed in the FAQ but to no avail. Right now I am unable to read anything even though I'm subscribed until April 2018. Please provide an update ASAP..Version: 9.5
✓ Why change a working formatReally confused on how to best use the app after the app update. Original format was wonderful and was actually best in class for magazine apps. No longer the case. Please go back to previous user experience..Version: 3.7
✓ SubscriptionI pay for a subscription online and now the app is not working.Version: 27.0
✓ Runs HotYour app makes my iPad Pro run hot..Version: 27.0
✓ Terrible Customer Support and Doesn’t Give Me MagazineI subscribed to a year right off the bat and it still asks me to BUY all the issues for five bucks and when I emailed support about it, I got a reply back saying it was acknowledged and received but its been a week and I’ve received no response..Version: 14.0
✓ Good, But...The app is decent, but please, for the love of God, update the app so it supports iPhone 6 Plus resolutions! Also, the interface could use some reworking; it's somewhat tedious to get around within a magazine issue..Version: 2.5.4
✓ Lost Subscription - Men's Health to CorrectI lost my paid subscription when I updated to the most recent version. This appears to be a common issue and after contacting Men's Health they are aware and are going to fix it. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt but if you have the old one still, I would recommend sticking with it for the time being..Version: 1.4
✓ Clunky app can’t make text biggerDidn’t like that you couldn’t pinch and zoom or adjust font. Pages were blank on LTE and my WiFi at several locations and speedtests and signal level and other sites were fine. Reinstall didn’t fix. IT guy here that just didn’t like it and I love Men’s Health..Version: 18.0
✓ 4.5 Really?This app is a total mess! No bookmarking, no way to at least have the app open to the month you were last reading. If you see 5 stars, they appear to have been mistakes or they relate to the app from a few years ago that at least partially was usable! Summary, love the mag but really really really hate the app..Version: 12.6.1
✓ IPhone XS Max formatted poorlyThis should not look exactly like the magazine on an iPhone. You can’t comfortably or easily read the articles. It has been a while since I have tried to read this on my iPhone but it’s horrendous. Please give us back the ability to read an article and not have to scroll or zoom all over a page..Version: 12.0
✓ Worst. App. Ever.One again the brain dead at men’s health decide to change the format of their app. Now it’s impossible to read. It’s looks like they just got lazy and scanned every page into a pdf file and shoved it into a crappy app. You have to pinch and zoom each individual paragraph on a page just to have any attempt to read it. Epic fail..Version: 10.0
✓ Locks me outPurchased 2 years subscription and not even a year in I have to pay $6.99 to view what I’ve already paid for, disappointing..Version: 12.5
✓ Fix this app!!Updated the app as requested. My yearly subscription has now disappeared! Asking me to buy June issue... What is going on???.Version: 1.4
✓ IPhone 6 support?Why there is no support the iPhone 6/6 Plus resolution?.Version: 2.5.4
✓ DO NOT BUY Men’s Health!!! They won’t cancel my subscription!!I have tried to cancel this rip off Subscription and each time they tell me it’s been canceled they keep billing me year after year. I am going to report this to the attorney general in the Better Business Bureau. I’m sick and tired of being ripped off by something I’ve canceled and they keep billing me every year. Do not buy men’s health unless you want to pay a subscription fee for the rest of your life..Version: 10.0
✓ Can’t read my subscriptions that I just paid, charges me to viewSee above.Version: 10.0
✓ Deleted App & Canceled SubscriptionI’ve been a print-subscriber almost since the beginning. This app has always been iffy, but I struggled through the problems to get my digital edition along with my print copy. Now, apparently, MH stopped offering the digital version with a print subscription. That’s it for me - I deleted the app and canceled by subscription. Huge disappointment for a long-time fan..Version: 12.6.1
✓ Not working on iPad or iPhoneThis use to be a fantastic app now is keeps crashing. Can’t download for offline reading. Really frustrating. I’ve reached and received nothing back from my request for support. I’ve deleted the app - didn’t work, restored purchases- doesn’t work. I’ve had this subscription for over 5 years and I’m going cancel it..Version: 18.0
✓ Don’t do itI am a fan of men’s Health but I downloaded this app and every year I have to cancel a subscription that I did sign up for. I am a big fan of the paper copies. Call me old fashioned. If you want to continuously have to call and cancel orders year after year be my guess and download this app..Version: 9.8
✓ Needs free access for print subscribersShouldn't have to subscribe twice..much smaller magazines have already done it, please fix this MH.Version: 1.1
✓ No thanks.Im not going to pay for two subscriptions as I subscribe to the print copy. FIX THIS PLEASE!!!.Version: 1.1
✓ So this app doesn’t workGot a new iPad installed and uninstalled this map many times and nothing loads, everything is greyed out no fix? Apple support was helpful but Maz the software developer is just trash with their support.Version: 18.0
✓ Great magazine, poor accessibility and customer serviceI used to buy men’s health off the rack back in the day (the magazine is great). I finally decided to give the e-version a try. The format wasn’t really my thing so I let my subscription lapse. Recently, I tried to access those purchases and could not. I contacted customer service multiple times and never received help that got me into my account. I received copy and paste useless help that is easily accessed through FAQ. But they obviously were not interested in doing more than the minimum. I was definitely better off with the hard copy. Big fail men’s health..Version: 27.0
✓ This update is totally brokenI finally decided to subscribe after all the bad reviews...I had to see it for myself. I took the free trial and was satisfied with my june issue and about to pay my first 23.99$ but this update came and now I cant even access the june issue which was already downloaded on my ipad. Now the only way is to buy the single june issue for 4,99$.I tried to restore purchases ...not working... I tried to reinstall the app...not working... I even decided to take the risk of reactivating the subscription through the appleid/manage subscription in settings... Even then it does not give me access to my issue!!!! Common! Worst magazine app ever guys! Its just sad cause I was really gonna subscribe!!! Until I see that june issue back I will abstain!!! :(.Version: 1.4
✓ I am having issues accessing my subscription through the app on my iPad.I purchased a full year and first none of the new issues wouldn’t download. Once I restored my purchases, the new issues have downloaded but are prompting me to pay $6.99 now. So far this is waste of my money..Version: 14.0
✓ The app is a poor user experienceThis app is terrible. It doesn’t compare to British GQ in its presentation. The pdf version is too basic and the default version looks like a junior web developer project. It’s horrible change it back to what it used to be before. No one likes this version..Version: 10.0
✓ TerribleHad the app last summer and bought a few issues. It was convenient and worked well. Yesterday I went ahead and bought a subscription thinking it would be the same and have had all the same issues stated in these other reviews. Click on the issue and it opens extremely slow. After that it's won't do anything. Today I cancelled my subroutine since I had a 30 day free trial. I'll come back when they fix it. On to print copies now..Version: 9.6
✓ Print subscribers! PeaseExcellent app, but print subscribers want in too!.Version: 1.1
✓ Absolutely Terrible NowI have been a subscriber for years and primarily read using the app. This has to be one of the worst “upgrades” I have seen in all my apps. The new layout looks like a magazine in a web browser. If I wanted to read articles on the web, I wouldn’t subscribe to a magazine. That new “modern” table of contents is useless. I just love endlessly scrolling through tiny squares hoping I’ll see a tiny glimpse of what I was looking for. The saving grace before was the ability to still see the PDF magazine, which stayed true to the print version, but, you guessed it, that’s gone too. This app is a complete abomination. I can’t believe is has 1.5 stars..Version: 10.0
✓ Sharing individual stories from Men’s Health is too hardYou can only share the entire magazine via iPhone or iPad you can’t send yourself an individual stories. The biggest problem with Men’s Health is that you can’t remember all the great advice! If you were able to send yourself an individual store you would like when you’re reading it on the app it would be killer an increase the value add significant way!.Version: 12.5
✓ A terrible updateThe latest update to Men's Health not only deleted all of my downloaded issues, it removed my subscription. In addition it is slow, not overly intuitive appears to require an internet connection at all times and the interface is not very visually appealing. I also cannot figure out how to download issues for offline reading..Version: 9.6
✓ BadDoesn't download in the background, very slow even with high speed connection, it forces you to keep the iPad paralyzed until it finishes downloading one issue at a time, it assumes that you want to jump onto the issue every time it downloads something, very bad and sad....Version: 2.5.2
✓ Doesn’t workCan’t view any magazines. Just shows the covers and freezes anytime you click on anything. Cancelling my subscription..Version: 18.0
✓ Bad new update for mobileThe new update for the Michael B Jordan issue made everything so small. I have to zoom in to read anything. I liked the previous one that was interactive and was mobile friendly unlike the new one..Version: 10.0
✓ GarbageThis app use to be nice. Offline mode is terrible it often does not work. App has no way to visibly show you whether the full issue is downloaded. I read on my iPad often without wifi and offline mode is necessary. Design UI looks older and boring. I'm not sure if they did this to drive people back to print but it's clear no thought was put into this. PDF view is good if you don’t want to create a better UI at least make it so the PDF view is able to be saved for offline viewing..Version: 9.7
✓ Where did my subscription goI payed for a subscription 3 months ago then new update is released and I can not view any of my previously purchased issues. Is this being fixed? Or will I be receiving a refund for my subscription? Not really fair to try and makes customers pay again for something they should still have access to.Version: 1.4
✓ Completely UselessHave not been able to read or download an issue in over a year. Everything just freezes no matter what ... settings, downloads, whatever. Nobody acknowledging that there is an issue; issues actually. Don’t plan on getting a subscription and read it on iPad/iPhone, it won’t work..Version: 18.0
✓ SO Difficult to Read Now...I used to love this application when you could look at both the PDF version of an issue as well as a streamlined scroll version, where you could tap on an article and scroll to read through it. But about 6 months ago, there was an update to the application that did away with the streamlined view, and now there is no longer an option to toggle between the two. Now it’s difficult and very tedious to have to swipe to flip a page, zoom in and out to read the words, zoom out to view photos / diagrams, especially on the iPhone. My suggestion would be to give the reader and consumer the option to switch between the two views. I’m sure a PDF view would look great on an iPad, but for iPhones with much smaller screens by design, the scroll version is much more efficient..Version: 12.5
✓ DisappointingThe older version worked just fine, back when the digital magazines were just the same as the actual magazine. I’ve tolerated the new version for a few years now. Occasionally all downloads gets wiped, so I have to download them again when I actually sit down to read them while in transit. I don't have unlimited data on the go. Now restore purchases no longer work, and I’m only one year into my two year subscription. I’ve even logged in, which made no difference. And you’d think by now, they would have added an area code option to login, as opposed to just zip code..Version: 12.5
✓ Downloads delete every daySince subscribing last week, I have downloaded the latest magazine several times to read on my iPad during my morning commute. Every single morning, I have opened the app to find it has deleted itself. If you are looking for offline access, this app is not what you are looking for..Version: 12.6.1
✓ No customer supportApp started freezing every time I used it. I contacted tech support, and got the standard “Please allow us two to three business days to reply.” Two weeks later, I contacted them again, letting them know that this was my second attempt at contacting them. As of right now (a month later) I haven’t received any contact from tech support. Finally decided to delete the app and reinstall it. Seems to be working, and yes—probably something I should have tried at the start. But a real hats off to the stellar tech support team at Maz (sarcasm emoji).Version: 18.0
✓ Print subscribers?I've been waiting for the app to be free to print subscribers for some time now, and I'm still waiting... I saw a deadline for mid-November, but that's been removed from their description. I will be canceling my subscription if this is not offered soon. This is ridiculous. It shouldn't be this hard..Version: 1.1
✓ Could not get my subscription to workDownloaded the app and subscribed but when I tried to access the content it kept telling me I already have a subscription to enter email and zip code but I live in Canada and it would not allow me access without it. Tried emailing the address that came up for customer service and it came back server does not exist. Not a very versatile app.Version: 12.0
✓ Could be betterWould be a great app if it would actually let me download a book or 2 I might want but doesn't let me. So once fixed I will change my score.Version: 2.5.2
✓ Men’s Health ReviewThe app is not worth having. It will not allow previous purchases issues to be viewed. It is oriented only toward purchasing which is futile if you can’t view previous purchases. The email function does not work. The app is sloppy, none functional in many areas..Version: 27.0
✓ App Doesn’t Even Open RightAll I get is grey boxes with a little download cloud. It won’t download or do anything, but freeze! I used to have this as my go to entertainment when I had time to read. But ever since they have started updating all I’ve gotten is frustration every time I open the app on my iPad. Probably just going to cancel my subscription and find another magazine..Version: 18.0
✓ ...and it gets even worseDownloaded the May issue and it’s in a new format that is an unreadable text size on an iPhone. At least prior to the April issue the text was legible. Now it’s just a bunch of pictures of a magazine that you can only pinch and zoom..Version: 10.0
✓ IPad Pro - just never worksTakes over 30 min to view and/or download before app shuts down and you have to start the download over again. Just want to read the magazine, no frills, just read, but app just prevents this. Not useful and waste of time.Version: 18.0
✓ Horrible waste of moneyFor two months speaking to the help desk which is no help at all. Cannot save/bookmark any articles, cannot do anything, what’s the purpose of even having an app!! Paid for the app subscription which I am reading on iPad with unlimited data;wish I was able to get a refund!.Version: 12.0
✓ App not workingHad to delete and reload app as it would not download the magazine. Now the app sometimes shows the monthly cover but won’t download and on other times doesn’t even show the monthly cover just a grey blank magazine cover outline..Version: 18.0
✓ Refund pleasePayed for he year did the update now they are asking me to pay again for this months issue what the hell! Not pleased at all..Version: 1.4
✓ GarbageJust a scanned version of the magazine. Don't waste you money..Version: 2.5.5
✓ Stopped workingI’ve been a subscriber for years, however the latest updates to the app have left me frustrated. Content downloads don’t work and contact settings doesn’t allow the user to contact the developer for assistance. The app just freezes. Extremely disappointed!.Version: 18.0
✓ Can't sign into my accountSo I just got a new device and I'm trying to sign into my account to access the magazine via the app. The problem is that it won't take my password, and it is the correct password because I sign into my old device with it even after signing out. I think they need to pay close attention to their app and make changes..Version: 27.0
✓ Keeps logging me offI got the app since I got my subscription but it keeps logging me off all the time very frustrating cause you can accidentally subscribe again and pay double..Version: 14.0
✓ Where's my SuscriptionI downloaded this version and my subscription is gone and it is asking me to pay for the June issue! Not very happy!.Version: 1.4
✓ No Customer Service!I have been trying to download the magazine for a couple of weeks. Can’t get it to cooperate. I have asked for assistance twice only to receive an automated reply saying someone would be in contact in a couple of days. Two weeks later... still no help!.Version: 17.0
✓ Still no free download option for print subscribersThey have been promising free access for existing subscribers for several months now. Still waiting....Version: 1.1
✓ Purchased Subscription Never WorkedI downloaded the app in Dec 2016 and purchased a year subscription within the app. The purchase went through but I was never given access to any current or past magazines. I contacted customer service several times and they directed me to uninstall and then reinstall the app + restore purchases. This never worked and I still do not have access. When I asked for a refund, l was told to contact Apple directly. I highly recommend not using this app or purchasing a subscription as it most likely will not work..Version: 4.2
✓ It was so much better beforeThis version has a text view that is pretty much useless. It has a clipping feature that let's you do things like selecting a portion of the screen to share or save, but it only lets you clip what is on the screen. It won't let you scroll at all, so if what you want to clip is below what is currently on screen you're out of luck. You can save a page, but you have to log in through Facebook or email to do so. I exclusively use the PDF mode because the magazine looks the same as the printed version that way. The text mode throws the magazine's layout in the trash and presents it like a crappy unformatted webpage article. You can't use this app without internet in text mode either, because it downloads a page of content when you get to it, and dumps pages, so you can't go back to them. The old app looked like the magazine, had some fun interactive features, and was a million times better..Version: 9.6
✓ AWFULI have not been able to read an issue of this magazine for three months. The app on my iPad and my iPhone freezes every time I try to download an issue. If I try to get to settings/help, the app freezes, if I do advance to help, once I start to type the app freezes. I’ve reached out to Men’s Health, Hearst Publications, MAZ and Apple. All point the finger to each other and none, I mean none of them have tried to fix the issue. Restoring issues does not work. Uninstalling, reinstalling the app does not work. Hearst says they no longer use the iTunes platform for their digital version of the magazine. I finally just cancelled my subscription. The worst feeling is being caught in the middle and no one accepting responsibility to fix the app..Version: 18.0
✓ Why did they change the way it worked?This new men's health app is completely worthless. Constantly crashes. I can't log in my print subscription. Stop fixing what isn't broken and please fix this major issue or there will be no renewing..Version: 9.6
✓ Content issuesLately, the app performs horribly. Illustrations do not load and written text also is partially visible. Really bad reading experience over the last couple months..Version: 27.0
✓ New version is Horrible!I guess they wanted to go out of business as the new version is impossible to use. The version takes forever to load and it unusable. I wish I could comment on the content but since the "new version" came out I haven't been able to access it. Why not go back a version until you get it right! For example tapped to get an article and I the time it took me to update the iPhone version and type this review, it still hasn't loaded..Version: 9.6
