07 Nov 2017 Ok there are several things wrong here 1 the app always crashes in iOS 11 01 11 02 and 11 03 and you cannot get to your subscribed issues Seems like we should be credited for every issue we miss 2 The Kalmbach Publishing Co Developer link in i Store is broken The link does not exist which means that Kalmbach is not keeping this link updated so that you can notify them about app issues When i see the issues have been resolved i will update my assessment but until then there are four less stars in the sky which should be all five     Astronomy Magazine App does not work in iOS 11 03 Universe Observer
Don t bother You can t even open the program I want my Monet back     Unaccessible Trek93
Unable to download my issues keeps giving error msg missing file Then after updating it keeps crashing Unable to access for several wks So now l m paying you for nothing Astronomy don t be sad S T and Sky at Night apps are equally terrible and useless Pls note this review pertains only to the app The content when you re able to access is terrific     Seriously ZakZQ
The Astronomy app has become a bigger letdown than Comet Austin Have it on an iPad Pro 2 and it crashes every time     Crashes crashes crashes theknightshift
For over a month now every time I open the app it closes down right away I have at least two months of the magazine that I have not been able to read because of this faulty app 26 7 17 Update review deleted app reset iPad and reinstalled app The app at least now runs without crashing Restored my subscription the app sees the issues But when I try to download the issues show waiting to load and flashes that message but nothing happens This app still does not meet any form of functional use BTW the competition s app works perfectly Download all previous issue just make sure it was not my internet that was the problem 26 7 17 one last update after 45 minutes I finally got a download error September issue missing XML I have no idea what the message means to me but I tried to download again and the issue download in less then 30 second So frustrating YES functional YES Will I change my rating NO If October s issue downloads cleanly then I will consider increasing the rating     latest Version 3 4 still crashes on iPad Avid reader 123
Crashes every time I try and read a magazine Absolutely terrible now Please fix it Updated and still crashes on opening It s garbage now and I m paying for a subscription that s worthless Fix it or give me my money back     Used to be great but now Adam Magus
After updating to the latest version I can t open the app It keeps crashing I sent two emails to Kalmbach Publishing and I am still waiting to hear from them Not a very happy customer I just bought a subscription to Sky and Telescope so I ll be using that more Can t trust This app     Not happy at all Llavi01
    Crashes immediately Cannot read what I paid for Future Robot for love making
I too have been unable to open this app since updating This really ticks me off because this I look forward to reading Astronomy every month I have a year subscription and can t enjoy it I sent in an email but have only gotten crickets in response     Same issue Cpttabor
Crashes to home screen immediately on all my iOS devices some on latest version of iOS and some not The app is completely broken and has been for weeks     Later version crashes Astrosetz
The latest version crashed I reinstalled it and it will not restore purchases I contacted Kalmbach and received the following response We apologize for the challenges you have encountered and are currently working with our App Developer to troubleshoot this further     Latest version does not work drcox3
If you thought like I did that this had ANY relationship to the magazine subscription you currently enjoy well like me you were mistaken This is just a second way to purchase another digital subscription of the same magazine you already enjoy reading on paper every month Don t bother looking for any way to link up your paper subscription or do anything associated with it This is just a standalone app to let you purchase individual issues or a subscription but this is a separate disconnected subscription from what you may have now And to the reviewers saying just email them and tell them you re a print subscriber and to turn on digital they aren t going to do that for free Astronomy is a small circulation magazine to begin with they charge their own subscribers right NOW if we also want a digital version Bottom line if you don t get the magazine at all the may be a valid way to do it but that s it     Already get the magazine Move on GameDrop
The app looks good but I have a print subscription Why should I buy it twice Reviewed when it first came out Even with update still no access for print subscribers Other magazines offer access why don t you Update riddle me this so Astronomy has an app and you can subscribe through in app purchase but if you purchase Print Digital directly from the publisher the digital issue you get is through Zinio and their app Curious     No access for print subscribers monitorboy
Apparently all that one can do with this app is to purchase digital copies of the magazine one at a time I an a current subscriber I had hoped that the app would have a sign in and view utility for current subscribers It does not To see a digital version current subscribers must purchase a third party app and pay an additional 12 00 over and above the subscription price For current subscribers this app is worthless Now I understand that Astronomy Magazine is a small circulation publication that may require third party assistance and may need to charge for that assistance However I am disappointed by the admittedly very small charge and by the fact that the magazine does not appear in my iPad and iPhone Newsstand but elsewhere And this functionality only via yet another app     Not What I Was Looking For KenKK3
You must have a wi fi connection in order to read your downloaded issue of Astronomy magazine Something about authorization So carry a cell phone hot spot when going to a star party If on a plane read National Geographic it works everywhere         must use wi fi to read wishbone636
Maybe I m out of touch on the whole digital subscription thing but I ve been a subscriber of this magazine for YEARS I thought I just needed to register somehow and see all my magazines that I collect already on phone or iPad If I m wrong for the two stars my apologies but I can t see paying that much for looking at magazines that I already have in my possession so I ll just continue looking at them the old fashion way by licking my finger and manually turning page by page         Faithful subscriber Alpha 5000
I used to subscribe Astronomy magazine and Sky and telescope in print This app is extremely awesome I noticed Sky and Telescope app has undesirable reviews I ll probably wait til app is fixed                     Great app Disgusted2222
Ever since the iOS 8 compatibility update I try to open up the magazine but it just crashes right after it says astronomy         iOS 8 Np Np Np
I m not sure what this app is for It doesn t do anything except take up disc space There should be some kind of disclosure on apps letting people know what it s good for This is a waist of time and nothing but an advertisement to buy products Very surprised Astronomy mag would allow this or produce it 1 star only because zero wasn t an option     Good for nothing Paulwnational
I like Astronomy s content but I thought paying twice for the magazine to get it to download it was a little excessive Now I get the joy of having to try to get my money back from a product that doesn t seem to have any customer service     Paid twice FloridaBoi
More than six months not being able to use it Yesterday an upgrade says it fixes a issue of the app crashing which I did Tried to open and guess what the app does not open still crashes Why would you pay for this     App crashes Mercuric66
This app crashes every time I open it on iOS 7 0 2 Only way to fix is to uninstall the app reinstall the app restore purchases then redownload every purchase Needless to say this is time consuming Then the app works fine for a few days Inevitably the crash problem comes back and I have to redo the ridiculous reinstall procedure just to get a few more days of reading before it goes into constant crashing As such this app is unusable And if I m going to pay full retail prices for a digital copy I must be crazy then this business model is a failure I might as well just buy it off the shelf at the store at least the print copy doesn t crash Please fix or lose another customer FYI also happens with Discover Magazine     Needs Immediate Attention r3mdh
It s basically an image view that changes pages when you drag it far enough Perhaps a 7yr old made it Better off viewing the website in a browser     Blows no iPhone5 support Mr. NoKnock
I get this subscription through the nook app cheaper than this garbage Terribly misleading and disappointing     Don t do it junkei aki
I am a current subscriber for the digital mag But it is not support on the Iphone or Ipad Very dissapointed I can get it on the nook or the kindel or a phone which has google play Although I have none of these On the astronomy website it shows a pictrue of reading the magazine from your iphone and or your ipad which is not true     No Digital Subscrition Tiegeg
Ever sense I downloaded this I have been getting lots of magazine related spam     Spam Jasonyuy
The reader application for Astronomy is very poor It s made by Yudu and is the same reader app used by several other magazines It s basically a glorified PDF The text viewing mode is terrible It does NOT remember the text size you select contrary to a demo video posted by Yudu s CEO So it forces you to reset your text size each time you view a new article To make things even worse the text view is one long file for the entire magazine not per article So when you increase your text size with each article you view it reflows the text moving your backwards several pages in the magazine so now you must scroll forward manually to find the start of your article since it does NOT maintain your position when increasing the font size This is maddening and has to be done each and every time you view an article I encourage Astronomy to switch to Adobe Digital Publishing Suite as soon as possible and put out a properly formatted edition like Scientific American has done         The reader application is poor Squirrely_in_Chicago
I am both a print and digital subscriber Both subscriptions were purchased through the AM website Big mistake if you want to use the AM app It will only work if you purchase your subscription through the app Now I m stuck with a worthless digital subscription that I cannot read on my iPod Touch     Won t work with online ordering Robb.W
This app is just a way to sell product I found no way for a current subscriber download the magazine Disappointed     No support for subscribers Les8819
Why can t they just give the real costs Inside the app they want 6 per issue I am not going to play their silly x 99 game and somewhat strangely 4 for a single issue subscription The catch being that it goes on month after month until you de subscribe Same deal on the yearly subscription at 43 or 3 58 per issue I love the magazine and would prefer to read it on my iPad for bulk and preservation reasons but the price should be lower             The real costs Bill B'80
Exactly the same as the newsstand edition Still my favorite astronomy rag after 25 years The nice thing about digital is no worrying about storage and keeping them from getting ruined                     You do have to pay for the subscription the app is free content is not brian.rinehart
Nothing free about this app Weird bait and switch for such a great print magazine     App not free Rim Greaper
That s intresting                     Cool Samiylo15
This is a true science magazine with informative articles and of course great pictures as well as great ads for the amateur astronomer yes I said great ads And yes I m a real user It s great to find out what s going on in the sky now learn about some of the latest science and to wonder at the universe I ve been an iOS user since the original iPhone in 2007 I tried the newsstand magazines back when they first came out I was not impressed I ve recently started checking them out again and am glad to see they ve come a long ways The Astronomy app works great It s just like flipping through the real magazine which I have subscribed too since I was a kid It s nice to have it with me to read articles while waiting around somewhere For those complaining about the workings of the newsstand i e download a magazine app download and browse through the free issues then subscribe if you like it it did take some getting used to for me also Also since different companies make mag apps in the newsstand the experience is different for each company However it does seem to be getting more consistent As far as those complaining about the cost of the subscription give me a break and grow up to the real world These specialty magazines cost a lot to create and we have to pay accordingly When you grow up you will realize that the free or more likely stolen idea is the wishing of children who don t understand how the world works                     A magazine and app xmiller
I have a subscription to the magazine but even if I log into my registered Astronomy account the content still doesn t show up Hopefully this gets resolved with the next update it s a great magazine     Not working Deloro
Very fun to read                     Wonderful Alyssa Harrison
Why doesn t everyone who s complaining you know actually do something There is a button app support prominently displayed RIGHT NEXT TO THE WRITE REVIEW BUTTON And if you really don t feel like writing that long review than go to the website Don t waste your time writing nasty reviews I understand what everyone means because I subscribe the magazine too but I m sure most people have 2 minutes to spare to send the app makers an email that says I subscribe to this magazine here s my proof that I do so let me be able to download magazines from my iPod Not so difficult is it                     Lazy people these days Chajssjsjsizjdjs
The app is free kids but you still have to buy the magazine to have the magazine They should just delete the bad reviews where people don t understand how magazine apps work In this case it s a magazine about science so if you can t figure out the app the content is probably wasted on you anyway For everyone else it s Astronomy magazine How cool is that                     Just as advertised King Zulu
I already have a subscription to the print edition No way am I paying the 43 again to read it on my iPad It should let you enter your code or whatever to prove that you are a subscriber then let you read the digital edition at no extra cost     Bad .Asa
Wasted time downloading this app It s labeled as free I should have known it wasn t I figured it would be a lite free version of the mag I subscribe too After reading the reviews it was clear that it only asks u to purchase upon executing the app Apple get with it Ur policies are so strict for developers why let the ball drop on how it s labeled     It s not free Apple Atruss2
Can t read without buying issues but the App Store shows it as free Not good     Annoying HokieHound
Don t list as free It ain t I deleted right away Should have read the reviews     Free to see the cover That is it glid
Why do they list these as free It is free to see the cover     Sychofarm
I already have a print subscription I ll keep the app when I don t have to pay again     Why pay twice Darkrride

Here I am a current subscriber who paid 43 for the print subscription and an additional 10 for the digital subscription So how does a current subscriber access their issues with this app This app needs improvement to allow access to current digital subscribers        What about current subscribers
I am a current subscriber for the digital mag But it is not support on the Iphone or Ipad Very dissapointed I can get it on the nook or the kindel or a phone which has google play Although I have none of these On the astronomy website it shows a pictrue of reading the magazine from your iphone and or your ipad which is not true     No Digital Subscrition

I already have a digital subscription and was so excited to see this app Finally I could have all my magazines in one place But it was not meant to be You can not transfer your digital subscription to this app and the price is outrageous for a digital copy My subscription is up after this month and I have no plans on renewing it     So disappointed
More than six months not being able to use it Yesterday an upgrade says it fixes a issue of the app crashing which I did Tried to open and guess what the app does not open still crashes Why would you pay for this     App crashes

Love it                 Amazing
Not a free app Requires subscription     Bait switch
I was excited for this magazine to finally end up on the iPad But for 43year for a digital subscription Sorry no Thats a ripoff        Too Expensive
I like Astronomys content but I thought paying twice for the magazine to get it to download it was a little excessive Now I get the joy of having to try to get my money back from a product that doesnt seem to have any customer service     Paid twice
Looks like a decent new app from astronomy mag but I have a subscription and there seems to be no way to transfer my existing subscription to this app So I certainly am not going to subscribe twice        Cant tell
Exactly the same as the newsstand edition Still my favorite astronomy rag after 25 years The nice thing about digital is no worrying about storage and keeping them from getting ruined                 You do have to pay for the subscriptionthe app is free content is not
I already have a print subscription Ill keep the app when I dont have to pay again     Why pay twice
Why do they list these as free It is free to see the cover    
You have to pay 43 for a digital subscription on top of the print subscription you already pay Thats an epic fail dont bother downloading unless youre willing to let them double dip you on the cost You can get print subscriptions substantially lower Id recommend sticking with that if youre a fan of this magazine Im pretty turned off to the point that I may not renew my magazine subscription when its due     Dont bother
Wasted time downloading this app Its labeled as free I should have known it wasnt I figured it would be a litefree version of the mag I subscribe too After reading the reviews it was clear that it only asks u to purchase upon executing the app Apple get with it Ur policies are so strict for developers why let the ball drop on how its labeled     Its not free Apple
Dont list as free It aint I deleted right away Should have read the reviews     Free to see the cover That is it
I already have Sky Telescopes app and can view the digital version of my print subscription for no extra charge Why should I pay 4295 to Astronomy magazine for the same privilege No thanks     No thanks
I get this subscription through the nook app cheaper than this garbage Terribly misleading and disappointing     Dont do it
Its basically an image view that changes pages when you drag it far enough Perhaps a 7yr old made it Better off viewing the website in a browser     Blows no iPhone5 support
You must have a wifi connection in order to read your downloaded issue of Astronomy magazine Something about authorization So carry a cell phone hot spot when going to a star party If on a plane read National Geographic it works everywhere        must use wifi to read
I used to subscribe Astronomy magazine and Sky and telescope in print This app is extremely awesome I noticed Sky and Telescope app has undesirable reviewsIll probably wait til app is fixed                 Great app
This app crashes every time I open it on iOS 702 Only way to fix is to uninstall the app reinstall the app restore purchases then redownload every purchase Needless to say this is timeconsuming Then the app works fine for a few days Inevitably the crash problem comes back and I have to redo the ridiculous reinstall procedure just to get a few more days of reading before it goes into constant crashing As such this app is unusable And if Im going to pay full retail prices for a digital copy I must be crazy then this business model is a failure I might as well just buy it off the shelf at the store at least the print copy doesnt crash Please fix or lose another customer FYI also happens with Discover Magazine     Needs Immediate Attention
4299 You guys are out of control Your paper subscription is out of control but this is plain criminal 10 is all I would pay for a digital or print subscription these days and I would expect free online access with a print subscription if youre charging 40 for that     Bring down the price
This is a true science magazine with informative articles and of course great pictures as well as great ads for the amateur astronomer yes I said great ads And yes Im a real user Its great to find out whats going on in the sky now learn about some of the latest science and to wonder at the universe Ive been an iOS user since the original iPhone in 2007 I tried the newsstand magazines back when they first came out I was not impressed Ive recently started checking them out again and am glad to see theyve come a long ways The Astronomy app works great Its just like flipping through the real magazine which I have subscribed too since I was a kid Its nice to have it with me to read articles while waiting around somewhere For those complaining about the workings of the newsstand ie download a magazine app download and browse through the free issues then subscribe if you like it it did take some getting used to for me also Also since different companies make mag apps in the newsstand the experience is different for each company However it does seem to be getting more consistent As far as those complaining about the cost of the subscription give me a break and grow up to the real world These specialty magazines cost a lot to create and we have to pay accordingly When you grow up you will realize that the free or more likely stolen idea is the wishing of children who dont understand how the world works                 A magazine and app
Just like the print edition Only thing to make it better is to offer all back issues if you have an active subscription                 Best Astro Mag
