Latest reviews of Cruising World Mag app for iPhone and iPad
Downloading under monthly subscription stop working after the second month. they collected me for 3 months.I Sent 2 email over a 3 weeek period and so far, no aknowledge or response fron Bonnier Corporation support. Stay away for now. I Will stop auto renewwall to cut my losses. Warning Bonnier Corporation has many magasine in itunes, be careful!
I love Cruising World Magazine but this app is garbage! I have subscribed the the monthly issues but half the time the will not download. When they do the issues will not open or after turning a couple of pages will seize. Total crap. If I could give this app a negative rating I would. You are better of getting your issue CW on Zinio, at least that way you will be able to read the.
This app is bad enough to motivate me to write a review - and Im a pretty complacent fellow normally. I enjoy the magazine but this app is unusable and the support is completely nonexistent. I purchased a subscription in August 2011 and downloaded some issues over the next few months. Inexplicably they disappeared and my subscription was no longer valid. They continued to bill me monthly however. No response to support submissions. Ever. Eventually this was resolved in a patch. Newer versions of the app seem to be plagued with freezing and delays of up to a minute. Thats a long time to flip a page or resume from the screen locking. Dont be a glutton for punishment like me! Save yourself some grief and subscribe via Zinio - which is a vastly superior iPad app in both features and performance - Im doing it as we speak even though I have the subscription already - its that bad.
I dont know if its because the whole magazine is a series of large images but the app is very jerky at times. I have an iPad 2 and most of the time that I open a magazine the iPad completely freezes for about 10 seconds. Like its processing something. Same thing when I switch back for an other app to open magazine. I think this app should also support landscape mode. This allows for reading without zooming in all the time. Other then that I can say with certainty that if I could, I would subscribe all my magazine on the iPad with notification when a new editions available. Adios paper magazines!
This is the worst app Ive got. Crashes constantly, jerky, etc. I totally agree with the other unfavourable comments Ive read concerning this app. Zinio much better and although the per issue price is higher, at least you get to read it!
