Cant read it!

Bought The 2010 Winter issue and couldnt download/open it! Also sent an email complaining about it and so far FT didnt solve the problem.

Good app!

Good app, although it is strange to subscribe for a year of four issues for $19.99, when I can buy the four issues individually for $2.99

Great

Great have been buying the magazine for years and this is even better with all the links.

Pretty good

The font is pretty small, and I have good eyes. You can of course enlarge it. The good news is there is a lot of info in just one issue, I often return to the same issue several times.

Wheres my magazine?

I purchased the Winter issue and then lost it from my library. Seems you want me to buy it again. When I purchased the aspiring issue it has taken 24 hours to load half of it.

Review

I have paid twice for the same mag ,been charged for a mag I can,t read and get a blank screen every time I try to view downloaded mag.Rebooted app many times with no luck.Wasted my time and money.This is the only rip off I,ve had since I had purchased my IPad and apps

Magnificent

Been a subscriber of the paper version for a long time. I love the fact that now I can blow up the pictures to see details paper can not show.

great magazine

great magazine. But the app site loads slowly.

Awesome

I love the magazine but to have it on iPad is the best! I can zoom in on the pictures and get all the details much clearer and better then the mag.

Hickups

Great magazine, just need to sort some glitches with ordering and merging orders and doubling billing and not being able to download issues etc......

Loyalty costs

As others have noted, annual subscribers pay almost double what individual issue purchasers pay. When loyalty is dishonored, one should observe reciprocity and discontinue with the subscription. You have lost me.

ALL LOST

Lost all my books . And can not restore them . I have tried everthing . but nothing works USE AT YOUR OWN RISK

App needs update

Love the magazine. iPad keeps telling me you need to update your app because you are slowing my iPad down. Seeing as its been a few years I can understand why they would say that, not just because you do slow it down. Could you please update your app?

Great app for a great mag!

Fly Tyer is one of my favorite print edition mags and now its even higher on list due to this app!!

Great content, terrible app.

Short story: The content of Fly Tyer magazine is excellent, with content that makes me a better more knowledgable tyer. However, this app is unreliable. It gives you two options for reading the magazine: downloading or viewing online. If I download issues I will usually open them to a grey screen and a frozen app. If the issue does open I usually only get the one read before I get the grey screen. The grey screen will persist until the app times out or I force quit it. When the app is usable again the issue that crashed will have a spinning wheel over it and will be inaccessible. Being the sporting kind I said, "whatever, Ill use the view online option." While the issues do reliably open they seem to be on a shutdown timer. If I use them for about five minutes (I havent actually timed it but I bet its pretty consistent) the app just crashes. Return to the app and I have to go back a find my place....only to have it crash again. I have several times tried to delete and reinstall the app only to have the problems persist. Would love to read this magazine but the app seems determined to keep me out.

Flytyer Mag Rating

I can honestly only give a single star rating due to the horribly poor app. I lost my ability to log in this past March of 2012 and have only been able to resolve the issue today, August 21, 2012. I had completely given up on the mag and only tried "one more time" after receiving a renewal notice. The content of the mag is good, but the app and follow through of customer service completely discredits any "positives" for the mag.

Unstable app

Im using the app on a 1st gen iPad. This app crashes often when Im opening it. I have had to reinstall it several times and subsequently reinstall all my mags. Its hung several times while downloading the mags. I love the content, just am very disappointed in the app. Its reflecting poorly on an otherwise good company.
