The Nation Magazine App Reviews

App is broken

Dont bother downloading this app. I just purchased a digital subscription a few hours ago and the app still prompts me to pay for a new subscription. Poorly designed, hard to use, but worst of all is its unacceptable lack of the most basic functionalities.

Garbage

This app is garbage. Ive paid for a subscription online, it works online. The app doesnt recognize my subscription, no matter how many times I delete it and reinstall. Its too bad, since I bought the subscription thinking I could read it on the train in the morning when I dont have service. So disappointed.

Nation! Step it up!

The UI is terrible, signing on to the app for the first time user is a lame experience! As a digital subscriber Why do we not have access to all issues as stated when enrolling? The app is an utter waste. Use the web site and leave it at that. If anyone from the Nation sees this; you guys need to step it up and invest the appropriate amount of money into making a fluidly, intuitive and functional modern app. This is embarrassing! How on earth do you expect to stay afloat? Even your ads dont work! I wanted to learn more about the Domini fund, tapped on the ad and was taken to a white, blank page - no web site. If I was them Id be rather perturbed.

App doesnt work - please fix!

Nation, this app is a disgrace. If I cant access my digital subscription then why did I get one? Please fix this.

Abysmal, yet useless...

Glad to have subscribed, but unable to access any issues. App is abysmally bad.

What???

I JUST PAID for 6 months...and it wants 1.99 per magazine??? WHST DID I PSY FOR??

Great but crash

One of the best built apps available to read a magazine. But it crashes every time when my iPad is not connected to the Internet. Can you fix it ?

Awful - Login page doesnt function.

If I could give it 0 stars, I would. The app told me (a new subscriber) to log in as an existing user. So I did. Several times. All I get is a message saying that it cant find my account. Meh.

The Nation Magazine

Whenever I try to read a long article, especially in the section "Books and the Arts," the app crashes at the same spot in the article each time I try to read it. Its very frustrating and so far I havent received any response when Ive tried to contact the magazine to get it fixed. Since I subscribe mostly for the longer articles, this is a deal-breaker; Im thinking of canceling my subscription if it cant be fixed.

Fix It.

Havent finished a single article since the iOS update. The Nation is antics crazy balance to my normal news feed. Just need the app to start working again.

Great magazine

Great app. Now that everything is running smoothly I couldnt be happier.

Mr. Terry

- The content is very good. - The navigation seems a bit cumbersome, although the horizontal/vertical swiping model makes sense. - The text is too small and there is no obvious way to adjust it, even in the apps settings.

Cant access subscription

I just got a new iPad. I subscribed on my previous iPad. I cant access either new issues or old issues on my new iPad. The app insists that I have no Account, though the App Store says I do.

Frustrating

This magazine doesnt like me. I tried to read it with this app but it only lets me see advertisements. I tried using the other app they offer but it was very difficult to use and see. I like the magazine, given the bit I can read sometimes but had to quit my subscription as there seems to be no way to read it on my ipad2. They need technical first aid.

Incredibly slow downloads

Im on a 50mbps fios connection and the 150mb file is currently about a third of the way done after an hour of downloading. This is my third attempt at downloading it. This should take 10-15 seconds on my connection. My email to their tech support has gone unanswered for over 4 days. I love the content of this magazine, but this attempt at an app is pathetic. Dont waste your time.

Not worth it

This app is cumbersome to use, and issues take a long time to download.

Does not work

Try to download magazines after downloading app but nothing. The Nation is missing. No magazines show up since dec2013!

Can’t download issues

Downloads begin but never finished. On both iPhone and iPad. Love the magazine, though.

Horrible update

Issues will not download. Very frustrated subscriber. Please fix.

New Version Not Good

I just tried to create a login/password as required by the new version. It claims I am no longer a subscriber, even though my subscription auto renewed itself in late December. Not happy.
