Popular Mechanics Magazine US App Reviews

Every time I try to download a new month the app crashes. I love the magazine but the app needs to be updated. Please fix!

The worst application ever. Do not install and subscribe. After two years of subscription they want me to buy all issues Ive paid for again. I cannot read them and I cannot get my money back. Their team told me that they are working on this problem three month ago for Christ sake and nothing has been change since than.

Not renewing my subscription I am 3 months behind because cant download issues. Horrible

Frustrated with app. Been trying for two weeks. The thing loads and then just says,try again later. I have paid for this and has tried for three weeks to open my subscription. So jut try again is not the answer. I paid money for this, and it does not download. I have sent messages to your contact, but, nothing... So how do I try again. Please help....no satisfaction, and feel ripped off... Who do I phone?

Surprisingly, there is no two finger pinch zoom feature in this app (which is so common in many other periodical applications). So bring your reading glasses with you if your eyes dont see so well. I wont be subscribing to their digital content for now. Hopefully they will add this basic feature in the future.

does not work on an updated gen2 ipad

iPad 2 ver 5.1.1 crashes without ever getting app to open.. After shutting down all apps, and reset.. Still not working. Why I dont update.. I dont want a slower OS. Apple breaks older devices through updates.. I guess they can break them without updating too. Planned obsolescence is suspected.

PM has been my favourite mag in this class (Ive been reading it since the 60s). The digital version gives me all the goodies on my iPad for a great price and with added functionality and detail. Get it !

Even after you "download" a magazine you still need to be online to view it! How useful is that while travelling? Also, this app has a terrible digital subscription process and UI. Frustrating and impossible to use. Very illogical and not at all user friendly. Content is generally shallow and often advertorial. I am not renewing my subscription.

bugs bugs and bugs.fix it please.

Printed issues are OK, but on-line edition issues are colorful and interesting and educational.

Great issue! Will be widening minds of the youth.

I downloaded the update but can not see the december issue...

unfortunately after update when Im trying to open issue application just closes. I like PM, but this bug is very disappointing

The free issue wasnt included. But their support is excellent - very polite and very effective. All issues resolved quickly and professionally. The magazine itself is a great read and a must-have for most of us geeks out there. PS The app can crash if you just skim through the issue quickly, but I guess itll get fixed in the future updates. Anyway, it doesnt happen that often and doesnt really get in the way.

The picture is almost unreadable on the new iPad. Text is very blur and images too. Please add retina support ASAP.

This application shows bugs. It cant be removed from my update list in apple store. It was uninstalled but still wants to be updated. Boring thing. I still cant remove it from my update list in the apple store. Please remove it from my update list.

Its impossible to read with this font

Nice app, not to bad, I would expected more from such a tech magazine. Cant go in landscape mode, not that smooth and it keep saying that there is something new, have the latest issue but keep saying NEW.

Slow and Unable to download issues, ridicolous $3,99 or €2,90 at issue!
