T3 Australia for Negative User Reviews

✓ I can't believe I or anyone puts up with it!!I have always loved The T3 magazine. The app used to work well but now it never works unless the app is deleted, reinstalled and then the issue needs to be downloaded. When I contacted customer support I was told that it was the iOS 8 update. The problem persists and judging by the poor average scores of the reviews I'm not the only unhappy customer. This does not happen with my other newsstand magazines. It's astounding that T3 allows this to continue. I wanted to give the app 0 stars but 1 is the lowest possible..Burni1969Version: 3.8.1

✓ Is this T3 or what?Oct 13 - I now find myself adding comments to a previous review. What happened to the content? This used to be an interactive magazine, now it's just a PDF. Should I look at the original version and see if that is still the same as the old versions. Seems to me we were paying for a truly tech magazine previously with interactive content and if we are not getting that anymore then we should be paying less. I'm appreciative of the turn about that was made after my last comments but this latest change is a joke. I bought this months hoping it was an error but seems I was dreaming. Oh and to make matters worse, about one third of the way through in the October version there is a Australia T3 advertisement, saying interactive, intelligent etc.....is this false advertising or what? June 13 - Tomorrows technology today? It seems like yesterday's tech from two months ago. I also used to buy this magazine religiously and was really excited when they finally got the Australian version of the app up and running but it seems like we are still months behind every one else. I noticed the main T3 app release August 2013 at the end of June and the Australian app is still in May. Additional to this the cover work always seems to be a month behind in the Australian app, not sure why this is. I don't know what is involved in making this happen at a timely rate but I am disappointed that whoever is driving a tech magazine cannot keep up with a modern process. I've given it 2 star because I want to support the magazine but as far as frequency goes....big downer! Would be 5 stars if they kept up with hard copies. I think I will either go back to hard copies or maybe subscribe to Stuff!.SapphyrreVersion: 3.4.4

✓ Multiple issuesPoor implementation prior to this edition - counter intuitive swipes/ directions. Have currently been downloading this edition for over an HOUR!.Doug D PerthVersion: 3.1.4

✓ Not badThis app seems to have improved somewhat with the latest edition. Couple of videos and downloaded much easier than the last mag. Recommended if you're into this mag..WazzaJDVersion: 3.2.2

✓ Has T3 stopped publishing? Don't waste yr $$$No issues since December 2014. This mag is a scam. Don't waste yr money. Not only is it now cheaper (by some margin) to buy individual issues, but the sub costs same as UK version which is monthly! What am I paying for here - no 2015 issues yet, really poor to be charging for this. Future Plc should be ashamed. At this rate it will be lucky if we get 2 a year - I want a refund! Scam..MjwilmoVersion: 3.8.3

✓ 2015 subscriptionI subscribed late last year but can't see let alone download the 2015 editions..CorolonVersion: 3.8.3

✓ Frustrating AppWas hoping to stop print magazine but app is too buggy and requires too much time re-installing so new new editions can be downloaded. Latest edition doesn't download at all..Paul HulettVersion: 3.6.5

✓ Where's the next issueWarning. This is meant to be a monthly, yet I subscribed almost 7 weeks ago and still only the relaunch issue. Pay for 12 issues and you expect 12 issues. First issue is good, albeit lacking any form of digital enhancements like other magazines, even links don't hyperlink. It's just like a high image quality digital scanned version.SchuffVersion: 4.2.1

✓ Soon to be ex subscriberI've been buying Australian T3 since it first hit the news stand, never subscribing but rarely missing an issue. I took out an iPad subscription late last year and the experience since then has been anything but smooth. When I eventually get the magazine to download and open without crashing I get the feeling that the tech team put trying out iPad features above that of actually consuming the content. Switching to the standard version delivers a slightly more stable, if less dazzling experience. A number of the problems I've encountered with the magazine are shared with others from the Future stable (I subscribe to 5), however Australian T3 is without doubt the most problematic. I subscribe to more than 30 iPad based magazines and therefore think that the problems are not related to my iPad. I saw the August copy of Australian T3 on the news stand yesterday and today I can also see it in the online Store, however even though I have a current subscription I can't see it in my Library. Just adds insult to injury. Whilst the price of an iPad subscription to Australian T3 compares favourably with the print edition you only need to look at the prices of other digital offerings to see that the landscape has changed. If the publishers of Future remain complacent I, for one, will vote with my wallet..FormertechVersion: 3.2.2

✓ Waste of time.I have a print subscription but have to pay for this!!! Already paying for UK version.Virtual_adVersion: 2.1

✓ Too many marketing notifications. SpamToo many marketing notifications. Spam. I uninstalled.WebberistVersion: 4.2.9

✓ No new edition DO NOT PURCHASEThe same edition has now been available for over 4 months! New edition is way overdue and still no sign..CtbnunuVersion: 3.8.3

✓ ShockingNever written a review before, but just don't understand lack of communication. Apple, you should remove this Pas it is fraudulently taking money and not providing stated product. Apple should be ashamed..DnfonlineVersion: 3.8.3

✓ UselessDoes not download, don't get ripped off like I have and buy a copy only to find you cannot read it. Should be reported to the the ACCC..Recon_itVersion: 3.8.1

✓ Don’t subscribe not updated magazine for monthsLast new edition was a few months ago and they are not providing updates. I’ve paid full year subscription. They are not responding to emails.Carlos1964Version: 5.6.3

✓ Really crappy serviceThey say they updated the app in March 2015...possibly to rip more people off, just takes the money and doesn't deliver a product..Rusty_SnakeVersion: 3.8.3

✓ Money back please AppleThis subscription is not as advertised, so it's time we got our money back please. I understand Future Plc are in financial trouble in the UK and they clearly don't believe they need to bother about Australian customers or Australian trade practices law, but we bought our subscriptions in iTunes so it's time for Apple to do the right thing and refund us the money we paid to them (Apple)..MartyntiVersion: 3.8.3

✓ Do not buyThey have not published an issue since last year and no refunds. Shame on you Apple for allowing this to continue......T3x0zVersion: 3.8.3

✓ Quarterly magazines - watch outRecently purchased a yearly subscription believing the magazines will come out monthly just as before and evident by the past issue frequency. However they have changed this to quarterly (only found out after emailing them). I would not recommend this magazine if you wanna stay up to date on new cool gadgets and tech..Me.NicVersion: 3.8.1

✓ Very Poor ServiceDO NOT BUY.......no update since December, no contact from the magazine, have paid for a monthly magazine...... Please refund MY MONEY......PSOEBVersion: 3.8.3

✓ AwfulThis is an absolutely disgrace app I've had ever subscribed with. No current updated magazines available. 3-4 months lack behind, downloading issue. Paying money for such a terrible service. What a disgrace!.SimonP&SVersion: 3.8.3

✓ RegretReally poorly implemented. It's basically just a pdf of each page - not at all adapted for iPhone or iPad. Cancelling subscription - this is just lazy..Tipperd06Version: 3.8.1

✓ Tech mag misses the pointYou'd expect this tech magazine to be built for the iPad, wouldn't you? Nope. It's a lazy replica of the print copy. The British edition is formatted specially for the iPad, and it's cheaper. Buy that..Adam DuhhhVersion: 1.0

✓ Very Disappointed...I love this magazine, I used to buy each printed copy religiously and then started using the app and have a subscription.....the current latest mag available is April??? We are now In June, not to mention the days it takes to download 1 magazine, there was a time when it just worked and now it's terrible I have paid for a subscription and getting nothing!! This needs to be resolved its been too long now and is a joke. It's a technology meaning the readers expect to be able to download it and be kept up to date not wait 3 days for 1 issue that 2 months old!!!!!!.C0nsult3ntVersion: 3.2.2

✓ Great mag but $40 for a one year subscription is ludicrous$40 a year for a digital magazine?!?!.Versatile1609Version: 2.1

✓ Stuck in "queued" modeAppalling. I've purchased a magazine, attempted to download it, which it does, but then switches over to the "queued" mode and that's it. Refuses to open. I've uninstalled the app, re-installed, restored purchases, downloaded again...same issue! Not happy. Great mag though, but I may stick to printed rather. This is way too buggy. Using iPad Air..TissinkVersion: 3.6.5

✓ Issue downloads stallVery unreliable app. I paid for my copy and all it does is stay on 'pending' despite it showing as downloaded. I have reinstalled the app several times with no improvement. Never again.Try The VealVersion: 3.8.1

✓ What do I get?When I subscribed it was monthly, then it was changed to quarterly. No notification of change or offer of refund or extension of existing subscrition to cover the same number of mags purchased. Other subscriptions for this mag appear to be monthly. Actually more "13 issues per year". Check out the cover, this is the same as the English November 2014 issue. Its now March 2015 and still the same issue. A tech mag with up to 4 months old content- yah right! Not happy. How can they get away with this under Australia's consumer laws?.Dshep64Version: 3.8.3

✓ Just stopped workingAfter latest update app just stopped working completely. Prior to that January edition had many white pages . Not good at all..Chook 41Version: 3.1.4

✓ Money backMoney back only one issue in 5 months??..QyqyqyqyqyqyVersion: 3.8.3

✓ Fix the damm app!Honestly guys... Pull your finger out and Fix your app. Not being able to download after spending serious money on a subscription and I can't even download the latest copy. Won't continue my subscription. To think you fooled me out of my money... Again..RoscomoscoVersion: 3.8.1

✓ No interactivityNo interactive material. Text hasn't been resized for iPad so you have to zoom all the time. Ordinary effort. Just a PDF....An impressed readerVersion: 1.0

✓ Change without notificationAgree with the others. Subscribed for a monthly publication and without notification the frequency has changed. Unacceptable. Some refund should be offered. Content of the mag when published is usually of a good standard but this is no way to treat subscribers. 4 stars for content 1 star for customer service..MrBronzeSkullVersion: 3.8.3

✓ Stuck on "Queued"Have tried to download, takes ages to get to 100% then stalls during install and returns to status of queued. Have tried hard reset, re-install etc but nothing works...app support suggests that not enough memory but I have brand new iPad Air 128gb...such a shame as I love this magazine...and ironic that it is a technology magazine but doesn't work with latest technology!!!.Joel_jayVersion: 3.7.2

✓ Good magazine, poor appMagazine itself is quite good. However, issues take forever to download and won't download fully in the background meaning the apps needs to be open until complete......MvpneveragainVersion: 3.1.4

✓ This publication apparently does not existI have contacted the app developer and the magazine publication team about my automatically renewed subscription for this publication that apparently does no longer exist asking them for a refund. Both refer me to each other claiming no responsibility for any obligation toward me. How can this app be still available in the store for a service that doesn't exist? I shall contact iTunes and complain in the strongest manner..DrewstockerVersion: 3.8.3

✓ The magazine is great BUT.....The app is hopeless. I've had to reinstall the app several times as the download keeps corrupting meaning I've lost all my content. Takes too long to download an issue as well..Trs71Version: 3.1.6

✓ Can't download the contentI have now tried twice to download my magazine, the first time it took a week to get to 24%. I followed the support instructions and the second time I am at 7% after 3 whole days. When I emailed support they provided no further assistance other than to tell me how to cancel my subscription. It simply does not work, do not waste your time..Bbrb1975Version: 3.1.4

✓ Rip off!!!!!!!!Without warning changed from monthly to quarterly release half way through a very expensive subscription. That is not what I paid for, we all deserve a full refund after all my previous 30 issues that I had paid for are now inaccessible. Complete rip off. Complete rip off. Complete rip off. Complete rip off. Avoid!!!!!!!!!.Rocker4444Version: 3.8.3

✓ TerribleShockingly bad, constant hang ups and stalls when trying to download issues. Getting sick and tired of deleting and re-installing to try and get it to work. Not very impressive for a technology based publication..CrozzerVersion: 3.8.1

✓ App keeps playing upMagazine is good but the downloading keeps crashing. Solution is to erase the app and then try and download again. Such a pain... 2 days now and still haven't been able to read the mag. Had this problem a year ago and disappointing that it is still not fixed....GardieVersion: 3.8.1

✓ I want my money backMade the subscription and tried to download, the status stuck on "Queued"..Leon Chen AuVersion: 3.8.1

✓ DisappointingHave always been a fan of the printed edition from the news agent. Then the interactive version for the iPad was released and although slow to download, was a great app, worth the subscription. Now it's just a plain old boring PDF of the print copy. Don't think I'll be renewing my subscription when this one is up..Optimus LameVersion: 3.4.4

✓ T3 ReviewThe articles in the magazine continue to be interesting. The electronic version is slow to load and is difficult to navigate. Storage size is relatively large. Other magazines allow the subscription to be shared across I-devices using the same ITunes account. This has not happened with T3. Overall the physical magazine is preferred..Toward1Version: 3.6

✓ Where have the monthly issues goneWas wondering why no new issues since the December one when it is now March. Only found out through reading these reviews that they have moved to quarterly issues. Very poor when I subscribed based on monthly issues. No notification of this and once every three months is way too long between issues for a tech magazine. Will be canceling this and finding an alternative..A_df_009Version: 3.8.1

✓ Paying for interactive but get PDFI am sick of paying for an interactive magazine but only getting a PDF version. I can see that others are getting the same. My subscription expires at the end of this month and I will not renew it unless it is restored to an interactive edition like the UK get..MorfergusVersion: 3.4.4
