Crashes upon opening

Crashes immediately when attempting to open application.

Crashes a lot

its a pretty lively crasher but if I didnt crash I would give it 5 stars

Creating a desire for learning

I am 57, I have read every issue since I was 10. You appealed to an ability others said I did not have. Today I run my own company and I still apply the message of using your head and your own hands to simplify a complex world. Steve Ricci

Love it!!!!!

As a master automotive mechanic and a college lecturer . I love this magazine the interactive part is so great for learning I read it over and over every time a new one comes out ( still buy it in stores also when Im traveling ) Stuart m

Wont let me open up the 101 gadgets issue

All other issues work I go to open up the 101 gadgets issue and the app crashes I am a new subscriber but this seems pretty lame

Please fix crashing

I love this magazine and app. But since the last update it is crashing constantly. I am running the latest iOS on iPad mini. When it works I will happily change review to 5 stars.

So much better than the newsprint version. The extras are really first rate.

Every other page is an add. Not happy

:(

Better than printed

I like this better than the printed version. There is way more content and everything appears hi-def.

Better than printed

Great

Lost features

I purchased a certain issue so I could run a feature in that issue. However, the new version of the program REMOVED that excellent interactive--one of the best elements in the touch/tablet version of the magazine! Im very disappointed that this new version provides FEWER cool features than the older version. I would seriously like to see that feature restored -- or receive a refund. If you have an older version, I would recommend you NOT upgrade. I wish I could get that older version of the program back.

Dont convert from print

I converted from print to digital in response to an email from Hearst. Now I dont get either version and cant find the status of my subscription any where.

Like it

Like the digital version, very accessible

Dont bother...

Some articles just dont download. Previous version were better, because the magazine downloaded as a whole

Complete waste of time... only the cover has clarity... could not read one article.

Like it!

I was reluctant to try it, but decided to try it. I have no issue with it. There is a sample issue to try before you buy it. The electronic copies are cheaper than print copies at $1.99 monthly or $19.99 yearly. It is auto renew. I can read it on my IPhone 5, and havent tried my IPad yet, and you can read it landscape view. I dont understand the other reviews - loads each page quickly without issue.

youll get no more of my money!

Useless. Crashes constantly when changing pages. I want my money back !

Cant download whole magazine at once. Worthless for plane.

PopSci App is GREAT!

I have read PS for nearly 50 years starting with my fathers subscription (both PS and PM). The added content possible with the electronic edition is amazing, as I still get the paper edition as well it is a great contrast. I can see how the digital edition expands on the story and brings more life to it! Only request would be that I could have my iPad in "landscape mode" or turned horizontal if I choose. Would allow me to see more at one time and other digital magazines I get do this.

Great

Love this mag should be where the tabloids are in the grocery stores maybe then people will learn useful info instead of who got plastic surgery lol
