Newsweek App Reviews

They changed the app and now I cannot get my issues. Customer service is unavailable. Really bad service!!! Terrible app!!! Total ripoff!!! I was robbed by a forunte 500 company, unbelievable!!

Luckily I can still download issues that I paid for but the error message is misleading.

Subscription department has serious problem. Please fix it. Ted Todd

A few days ago, I got a message needed to login to new app. It won’t allow me to login and when I try to retrieve password, says my email address not found. Called iTunes and they were no help & told to contact Newsweek directly. app support link gives website to get new password but it also won’t recognize my email address. I just paid in April again to keep my subscription. No response from Newsweek customer support. Really frustrating to pay for an app I can’t use and get no support to rectify the problem!

I like these articles a lot, but every time I finish an issue, I have to delete the app and redownload to get back to the library to see other issues. What’s up with that? Edit: Not only was this problem never resolved, but now I can’t access my account. Newsweek app requires a sign in with a username and password. It tells me this cannot be authenticated. I have reset my password, and it still doesn’t work. I am now paying for something I can’t use. Also, Newsweek has been completely unresponsive to this problem - it does not appear I will be able to use the app.

Th Newsweek app is working very well for me. I learned how o navigate it quickly.

I like these articles a lot, but every time I finish an issue, I have to delete the app and redownload to get back to the library to see other issues. What’s up with that?

Good magazine, improved app, but still not completely fixed. About every second or third time I try to access the current issue, I have to delete the app and re-load it. At least it remembers my subscription now. Also have to delete and re-load the app if I haven't finished the current issue and tell it "not now" when notified of a new issue. Occasionally I can bring up the Library and select a different issue, but mostly not. When I am ready for the new issue, it appears on the Newstand but clicking on it takes me back to the previous one.

The reading experience is quite sublime, like a fine wine on a crisp autumn evening... The content, as thought provoking as the eternal debate of choosing which superpower you would choose between teleportation and invisibility. The person that developed the app undoubtedly has an enhanced sense of how to invoke aesthetic pleasure. Download this app if you would like a shotgun blast of knowledge to the face. Enjoy.

Since doing the update I now can not get my new issue

Locks up my phone consistently. So frustrating

I am experincing the same problem as gremlin

I always have a hard time to go back to my list. The bottom just doesn’t appear at all. So frustrating

Really great app, easy to navigate around the fantastic content and super user friendly.

It took me just a short while to navigate this new Newsweek app and now I really like it. There are quick links from the table of contents to quickly take you to the articles you want to read. I've always enjoyed Newsweek as a reliable news source.

Reading Newsweek on my iPad mini the font is too small to read comfortably. This may preclude my subscribing to the magazine.

I have been using this app for couple weeks and so far I loved it. It is easy to navigate between pages and articles.

There's a reporter named Alex something that either is too lazy or doesn't care about being accurate in his articles. Of course Newsweek won't fire him because his lies fit in with their liberal propaganda.

So far… So good…

I love reading Newsweek's articles. Especially all the articles about the candidates.

I have subscribed to many magazines through iPad. I cannot get this one to work. I followed all the instructions under the frequently asked questions and I cannot get it to work.

Great

last week through the app for an electronic only subscription. Was able to download one issue. Now app wants me to sign in again. Unfortunately, app not letting me sign in. NO HELP from Newsweek, app developer or iTunes. Am now stuck with (about) $25 annual subscription with auto renewal next year. All I want is to CANCEL this Newsweek subscription. And get my money back. Worst comes to worst, (well in advance) I will make sure there is no credit card on file and no money sitting in my iTunes account, so I can't be ripped off next year.

The 5-12 2018 issue can't go back to the library

You obtain the app, subscribe to Newsweek, they send frequent tantalizing article lists by email, and then do not allow you to sign in to read the articles, i.e., the "sign in" does not respond on the iPad. I have waited for over a month since subscribing, and still no go. I can read the magazine on my laptop, but the iPad app is dead.

Excellent app. Convenient access to lots of important and insightful news.

Easily the best magazine app I have on iOS.... Going green is the best thing that ever happened to News Week.

This app works well for me but I haven't used it extensively. I just gave it four stars for that reason. It may well rate five.

I've paid my subscription, I set up my account ID and password, and now they won't accept my ID/PW,. The PW reset feature doesn't work. I've done the reset process 20 times - they are supposed to send reset instructions to my email. They have not sent a single reset email. I haven't seen an app this bad in over 10 years.

There are some things other fancier do better but at the end of the day it's about the content. Excellent content here. World class journalism. Great app to boot

A new subscriber, I have only read a few issues, have had a good experience, would recommend future subscribers.

Very disappointed there is no Dictionary when I touch a word I have to leave the magazine to find a Dictionary I've always enjoyed Newsweek but I like reading on the iPad because of the Dictionary feature.

The "share" functionality of the app doesn't work even remotely correctly. If I want to share an article with someone, I have to go to the Newsweek website and find the link there. If I were able to share articles normally, this app would definitely have 5 stars

This app is good in that it is reliable and is a convenient way for me to read Newsweek. The reason I can't say that it is great is because you can't zoom in on photos or text. That makes it h****** my eyes and fatiguing to read.

I used to respect this publication but since the recent presidential race, the quality has truly gone downhill. Everything is a hit piece which reflects the limited intelligence of the writers. Imagine if Americans actually believed this garbage.

I love the layout and functionality of the app. i think one of my favorite features is the progress bar to let you know how much is left at top. also i appreciate it always remembers my last location so its easy to pick up where i left off

I'm a new user, but app seems to work well.

Not sure why I would pay $4.99 per issue of a condensed Newsweek in tiny app form, when I can get all this news for free everywhere else. Apparently Newsweek is still clinging to the old world.

Easy to use app, not innovative. Good articles.

I like it really great app

Good magazine; app could use some work.

Totally love reading the latest news and the content inside is A+

Really love that I can read it on my phone. Good visuals.

I've subscribed to Newsweek for over 20 years. The hard copy delivered to my house is still great, however the problems with digital access are so numerous that I cannot believe they are trying to market it.

Terrible app. Slow. Articles have typos. Uses up my data. Images won't load properly.

I am delighted that leaving the app no longer results in the magazine being "closed". Continuing from where one left off is a must. Previously, reading Newsweek was an inconvenience.

sometimes the library icon comes up sometimes not and then you get stuck in one magazine and have to erase the app and download again to get to the other editions. useless. fix it. someone there should be able to do it.

Why do many businesses continue to release products before they are tested. This APP is one of the most bug worthy applications I have ever downloaded and used. On the second issue I downloaded the APP Crashed. I was unable to do anything to the APP. I could not swipe and move pages. I could not find the, already difficult to find home page.I could not even finish the already downloaded previous weeks articles. “ Nothing” Now I need to fight Apple for my money back. The 1 edition of the magazine I was able to download but only read half! Maybe I will receive half of my $4.99????? This is a great News magazine! Horrible technology.

No problems with the app, fast download and nice navigation of the magazine. Excellent magazine content as well.

The return of what was once one of the main sources of news that mattered for millions of people. In depth, thoughtful, balanced reporting instead of sound bites that do not leave the consumer any more educated than they were before they read it. A well informed middle class is indispensable for a world or nation to be nimble enough to adapt and triumph over the adversities and problems that will only increase in this rapidly changing world.

This is a great app! It navigates thru the pages very well. I love the convenience of having an app that really works! You can go back to previous copies-which is a bonus for me!

Story on how Hillary could still be president was hilarious! Fortunately it is pure fiction, just read the constitution and see for yourself.

Real issues on iPhone X - can’t get back to library one a mag is selected. Have to delete the app and redone load to get back to library page
