Stuff Magazine App Reviews

New update?

Im not really sure what they did, but this app is now terrible. Everything is too small and different parts of each page have to be zoomed in and out to be able to read it. Its like they were tired of making two versions—print edition and tablet edition—and just made the print version digital. No more scrolling up and down. No more tablet manipulation. Just flipping page by page just like print. Ruins the whole experience of being digital. Links also dont work. Lame.

Poor design

I am not even going to mention about the magazine as PDF view. The thing that is stupid with this app is that it supports iPhone 5 but do not let you use the whole screen to view the magazine. This is just dumb.

Renewal pricing missing

My subscription will expire soon and the pricing changed so auto renewal was turned off. I just went to see what is the new renewal prices and it shows three different term durations but no prices. Must be discontinuing app soon. Good buy no renewal until show prices.

Bug

I can read only one issue on my iphone, to read another, i need to reinstall th aplication again. Iphone 5s There is no button to leave the issue SOS

Its Finally Here!!

Ive been waiting for Stuff Magazine to hit Newsstand for some time. It seems fairly stable so far. Good all around app. Keep up the good work!

Dont buy

The magazine download freezes and does not complete. I have tried it over 5 times with same issue. I want my money back!

Cant even download sampler!

Ive tried loads of times but I cant even download the sampler why would I pay for any issues? Please sort this out I love your magazine but deff not loving this!

Awesome

A beautifully done app of a great magazine!

No stars

People be aware not to buy your subscription thought iTunes !!! I bought the one year subscription with a total of 37 us dollars I havent bean able till now to download any issue it blocks at any stage and never want to continue ,by calling the publisher in England a person named Chris took my call and informed me its because I bought it from iTunes !!!!! Sorry but what does it mean ??? That I am not suppose to trust putting money on iTunes any more ... Funny as it is I tried from my email confirmation of purchase to click on the report problem icon in blue that was directing me to I tune store and with one massage all the time cannot connect to iTunes !!!!! All the time tried over 20 times , now I am waiting to see if the publisher will be disent enough to help me with my problem ,or they will bounce me back to iTunes which seems to be impossible to report the problem too and good buy my 37 dollars subscription .. Just wanted to help any one who is about to loose money like me

Nice app with interactions

I thought itd be simply a PDF like most other mags in newsstand, yet it turned out to be a an interactive one, with videos when the iPads in landscape mode and 360 view as well. I like it. However it lags a bit when flipping pages sometimes.

How do you give Zero Stars? Total Rip-Off!

Infuriatingly stupid login. The digital magazine requires that you provide a "subscriber ID" that is included on your PRINT magazine label. But you bought this through iTunes, you say? Well, tough. You just threw away $40, because they dont send you a "subscriber ID" so that you can log in and read the magazine. I believe this is a total fraud on iTunes users. If you must be a print subscriber to read this app, you should not be able to buy the digital magazine on iTunes. UPDATE: After several days, support e-mailed me instructions on how to get logged in. Basically, if you feel stuck click Cancel and get back to the beginning, then pick the opposite option option from what got you stuck. Frustrating, and still *terrible* product design, but you CAN eventually get to your mags if you are persistent. Now that Im in the magazine, it is a decent experience. Ive always enjoyed this mag when picking it up @ B&N. The digital version really needs to be able to sense iPad orientation. I use mine in a ZaggFolio, so I always use it in Landscape orientation. That doesnt work at all with Stuff, which will only display in Portrait (unless Im totally missing something again. possible, but when everything else auto-detects, why cant this?)

Scam -Stay Away

This was incredibly misleading. You subscribe for a year and then you are required to log in with a "subscriber code" you are never given, I have emailed several times and received no response. This should be removed... I couldnt get back to the magazine once I closed the app. I never complain about anything, I simply choose not to...but this is essentially stealing.

Awesome

The best tech magazine app ever so far. I am a T3 reader too; their mags are excellent but their app is horrible. When STUFF launched their app almost a year ago they were perfect BUT not to the T3 level when it came to the Multimedia added on the mag. But STUFF got better with every issue they released until ultimately they released this recent update and now we can read STUFF on iPhone 5 using the perfect screen... Oh the ability just to go through the mag on the iPhone is extremely convenient since I do not carry my iPad every where...well now mini-iPad is out and I do not have an excuse not to carry one.... Good job and highly recommended....

Rubbish and frustrating avoid avoid avoid!!!

Constantly have to reregister and when I try to read the December issue I have purchased it constantly goes back to the registration screen. Really really frustrating, wasted $4.99. Rubbish rubbish rubbish

Garbage

Holy Smoke is this awful. Its a scam and mind numbing at the same time. Its not free, not even partially. It lets you register...and then you see the mag for about five seconds and it goes back to register screen again, and again.....and every time you try to do it. Apple should be booting this crap. Any positive reviews MUST be made by employees or girlfriends....theres no way someone would rate this above garbage level.

Omg..worst app ever

Not even 1 star..its a shamefull app..i dont believe that apple allows such a crappy app to be displayed...doesnt download properly..if somehow you manage it it doesnt log in...i after 10 try you open you cannot read it..terrible..absolutly the worst app that i bought..

Free view is scam

Free view is scam to get your info. If the free view does not work I would think there regular view would not work to.

Warning.

It seems counterintuitive, from a marketing point of view, that if youre trying to get me to like your magazine, or at least one that Ive never heard of, you would at least give me one or two issues for free with the download so I can see if its for me. (Like every other app in the newsstand.) This app asks for your personal information, THEN informs you that youll get nothing as a sample. Issues are about $5 apiece, which is a lousy exchange rate with the advertised UK pice of $£2.95. (Should about $4, although this might Apples bad attempt at banking.) Bad manners, bad marketing = Instant delete.

Nothing in U.S. $

Not sure if you can get the advertised items in the U.S. its like a Sharper Image catalog subscription for the U.K.

Crashes and/or only loads the product test section

Youd think a tech mag could write a decent app! Last few issues have either only contained the test section or the whole app has simply crashed on open.
