Very Disappointing Implementation Very Disappointing ImplementationIt’s tough to assign a star rating to Macworld. On the one hand, it’s, well, Macworld. The content, writing, and editing ranges from above average to excellent. But the implementation of the iPad app that delivers that content is a disaster. Every page contains a popup ad at the bottom right that covers text of the article, and there is no way to get rid of it. So, if you want to read an article, just know that you will never see the final paragraph. Navigation between articles, and even pages of articles, is so difficult that it’s often easier to close the app and reopen it to move to another article. C’mob Macworld, you’re better than this. For a publication that pulls no punches (e.g., as I write this, there is a current article saying, “iTunes 12.2 is a disaster”), it would be nice to see you getting your own house in order before asking users to believe you criticism of someone else's.

This app is awful since last January's update. This app is awful since last January's update.Update: Macworld continues to crash in the background approximate 20 times a day. This means that if you are reading Macworld on the iPad, and then you put down the iPad for 30 minutes, if you pick up the iPad again, you’re back at the iPad home screen. To get back to where you were, you have to go through the 8 steps below to get back to where you were. I’m all for electronic copies where it’s done well, but this app is done EXTREMELY poorly, and this COLOSSALLY bad bug has been around for 4 months without a fix. This is inexcusable. IT CANNOT SAVE YOUR PLACE. IT IS A MAGAZINE APP! Every time you restart the app, i.e. every time you want to read a magazine, you are back at the cover, with its stupid animation. Then you have to swipe to the first page, and go to bookmarks (be sure to bookmark a page when you’re done!) and then go to your place. Which, of course, isn’t your place, because each article is a set of vertical pages. And the bookmark only records the top page of each article. So, when I want to read an article where I was the previous day, here’s what I do. 1) Tap newsstand icon 2) Tap Macworld magazine inside icon 3) Tap latest issue 4) Swipe cover to first page 5) Wait a second or two for first page to display - you need to do this for the bookmarks menu to be available 6) Tap bookmarks icon 7) Select your most recent bookmark 8) From that page, manually swipe down 3 or 4 pages (I forget, I was falling asleep when I put the iPad down), and try and resume reading where I left off. But this is better than paper I guess. So glad they canned their entire staff and came up with this gem of an implementation. FWIW, the previous update was better; it at least saved your place, saving about 4 steps and 20 seconds of startup time over this version.

My last Macworld subscription My last Macworld subscriptionAfter struggling with the Zinio version unsuccessfully and downloading the Macworld app I would have to say that this is even worse, however difficult that achievement was to reach. I am unable to read previous issues and have to re enter data each time. After 20 years of subscribing, I really wish I'd never extended my subscription. Pitiful effort and lesson learned. Sad.
