WIRED Magazine App Reviews

The recent change to port rate only is completely unacceptable. The moron who thought this up should be fired. I will be dropping my subscription.

Only 1 out of 7 pages are readable. The rest are out of focus. Conde Nast seems to go out its way to screw up. Out of focus! On an ipad.

If it had landscape it would be 5stars but no landscape view only 3 stars

Like another reviewer said, it appears that landscape mode has been removed from the app. The only time I have to read any form of magazine is during lunch, and the only way I can view the digital version on my iPad Mini is in landscape mode, propped up by the official Apple cover. Now that Conde has decided in its infinite stupidity to remove that format of the magazine starting with the June 2015 issue, I will no longer be a subscriber and will actively dissuade my many tech savvy friends from subscribing as well.

I agree with the other review that it is odd for a magazine to omit landscape mode as it shows two pages side by side like a print magazine which you would think is a feature a print publication would want to mirror in the digital version.

I too plan on canceling my subscription when its time for renewal because of the lack of landscape mode. Ridiculous! Try reading the digital version on an iPad Pro.

On my phone I do not care about landscape but on my iPad every app or game that forces me to use portrait is an app or game I will seldom use. Struggling to see an upside for the publisher on this restriction of use.

Do not install this app. Doest work and it cannot be removed. It doesnt even deserve one star. I cant send this review without a star. So... My Review is 1 star minus 1 = 0 Stars

I see all the negative reviews for the app not readable in landscape mode. Has anyone ever thought maybe it was designed to be looked in portrait mode for a better experience? Why would you want side by side page view on an iPad mini? The pages would be small and the UI would have to zoom or adjust itself. Seems people are just dog piling onto a trivial feature they cant see is a reason for the elegant design of the app. Everything about this is amazing. It loads a lot faster than versions in the past. Hands down a great publication and app.

I thought Id use this app to read the magazine, since the magazine has such a small font size that I find it difficult to read. It turns out that doesnt work, because the font size on this app is small too and I dont see a way to increase the font size! It wont even let me zoom in! Ill have to cancel my subscription which I hate to do because I enjoy it, but whats the point if I cant read it?

I agree with the majority that the font is too small in portrait and dont understand why the app developers wont listen - uninstalled the app as it is useless.

Its ridiculous that this app requires portrait mode.
