AFAIK it doesn t even allow text size to be modified so essentially you re left to struggle with large images of a small font magazine page that you read in the manner of examining a large photo in sections at a time Any newspaper app allows more readability than this Cp The New Yorker app Very frustrating     Great mag poor app jdh98467

Buyer beware Unlike most magazine subscriptions you don t own issues When your subscription expires you can no longer access any issues I will not be renewing my subscription     Frustrated lost access to my issues CT_News_junky

I ll start with the same statement I read in another review I m not sure what the negative reviews are about I don t get it either Maybe they are from a few years ago but I have had no issues with the app The magazine is clear and easy to navigate The resolution is very high which I love and the quality of the writing goes without saying the best I have wanted something interactive to look over when I m listening to music and this is it Great job                     Great magazine davegordon48

The app on an iPad is frustrating to use It s a poorly designed interface for good content         Poor interface for good content rxchaos

The app is a decent one It allows excellent access to issues of gramophone Two suggestions 1 Make access to previous reviews more precise and easier to locate 2 Allow between pages on screen instead of requiring the user to bring up the arrows at the bottom of the page             Navigation lesit

I ve been an avid reader of Gramophone for years Having previewed the app earlier today I bought the annual subscription through the iPad app itself I have no idea what the negative reviewers are talking about I have access to every single issue published since the magazine s inception in April of 1923 Each issue is searchable and I can bookmark favorite articles With more recent issues selecting an album allows access to iTunes preview and purchase option I love the browsing option when the pages of the magazine may be previewed in the manner similar Apple s cover flow                     Wonderful Zardock

Just upgraded to the latest version Now I can see my back issues but I can t load and read them the cover shows up for less than a second and the it displays ten current issue again I don t know if the Kindle version does the same thing but I will be checking that out tomorrow     bad upgrade very bad YellowRoseBud

It keeps hanging very slow to flip pages constantly loading every page you turn It s as if the magazine is not downloaded but you re browsing the web content So I m not even sure whether you can read an issue offline on your ipad I had subscribed and cancelled it after 2 issues Unless Gramophone learns from other successful magazine apps on iPad I m not gonna restart my subscription Too bad because Gramophone was one of the magazines I was looking forward to read on my iPad Big disappointment     Horrible web browsing like experience Dr. KK

It is difficult to read The fonts look terrible on New iPad It doen t response to your finger movement well I have to stop my subscription after two issues The new issue just replaced old issue Why do you do this     Terrible App JimWNYC

Great content but as many other magazines such a lousy interface no effoort intomit at all If it was redesigned to match interface of let s say Conde Nast magazines then it could work and also pricing is a bit to high 2 99 a month is more then appropriate So we ll see what happens     Sad but true kkereta

Yes you do have to subscribe to the magazine Duh But the pages are tailored to the iPad and display beautifully You can enlarge text too pinch and drag New issues download easily and do not replace older issues                     Tailor made for the iPad classact

The Gramophone app is one I really looked forward to having on my Ipad since I enjoy reading the music reviews when I can snatch a spare moment However this app has two major drawbacks one much more annoying than the other First the issues do not download easily The January 2012 issue would download partway and then hang It was exasperating to have the thing stall so often Much more serious however is the pricing I had just renewed my print subscription for two years at a cost of 143 when I came upon the Ipad edition Could I get Gramophone at no charge on the Ipad as I do with The New Yorker and other Conde Nast publications to whose print editions I subscribe Of course not No price breaks whatsoever I had to purchase an additional subscription for the Ipad at full price and I m experiencing buyer s remorse because I was so weak willed In short this could be a good app with some bug fixes and a fairer pricing structure As it is now it gets my personal Golden Fleece award     This could be excellent but James T. Leak

Even if you stay subscribed a newly downloaded issue erases older issues so you lose them even though you have paid for and downloaded them previously     David Grothe David Grothe

I bought a 1 month subscription At the end of the month my subscription expired and the month I had bought November 2011 disappeared I tried to restore it and was told I had no current subscription So I guess they re saying that you only rent the mag while you have an ongoing subscription and if you let it lapse you lose all your editions Ripoff UPDATE iTunes have confirmed that you only get content while you are subscribed So you could subscribe for a year and once the subscription is over you have no access to that content ever again Putting aside the subscription issue the iPad edition of the magazine is devoid of any functionality or features that take advantage of the iPad platform It s basically just a PDF dump of the print material So it s not worth subscribing to even if you got to keep all the copies This is a putrid product     Beware This is just a magazine rental jaroslavd

I love that this magazine is available digitally The interface is superior to some other magazines that are available With the magazine in the news stand it is there ready to read even when the wifi is not there I now have one of my favorite magazines accessible on my iPad That is so wonderful The pages render as beautifully as the paper version It is easy to zoom to make print larger It is an easy swipe between pages or you can hit the scroll button at the bottom to quickly move around the magazine Thank you                     I love this mathprofessor

After paying for a subscription through Exact Editions this doesn t allow me to read the entire magazine Disappointing     Not worth it Reynoldsdayton
