Not what I expected. At first I thought it would be great. After I enrolled in the gold plan for $9.99 a month I discovered that most of the magazines I liked were not included in the gold subscription. Only three crochet magazines, Reader's Digest, Taste of Home and a bunch of tabloid magazines were included. I can suscribe to them individually and save money rather than paying $120.00 a year! I miss the Texture app where I could get all magazines for $14.99 a month including weekly magazines.

I was SO hoping the Magzter Gold plan would be a good replacement for Texture. After enrolling in the trial, though, I found most of the magazines I previously had as included in the Texture plan require an additional pricey subscription payment for each magazine! Even popular ones like Southern Living, Money, Popular Mechanics, Ski, Wired, Men's Health, etc. , ALL require subscriptions over and above the Gold plan payment. And then they don't even have others I was getting on Texture such as Consumer Reports and National Geographic Traveler. Without all that this is a very poor replacement option for me.

Alright I really like this app. You can read milllions of books! There are some minor glitches, like where you can not open a certain book but you can open other magazines of the same ''newsletter.'' Also it would be really helpful if you could fix a glitch where it kicks you out of the app altogether? Last glitch, it cannot open links from a magazine for crosswords or something. Still, I have to admit it can open magazine and load them really fast, way faster than I expected I've got to say. Thank you to the people who made this for making such an amazing app for free so people don't have to buy their favorite magazines and have fun and enjoy reading them. If you fix these little glitches you will definetely get more positive reviews, thanks, again! Edited

I have installed the app 4 times now. The most recent time was today on Android 9 on a device released a few months ago. Before this, I wasn't certain if Magzter simply didn't work on my tablet, which is Android 6. However, I am having issues with the app on Android 9, as well. Most notably, when I leave the app while a magazine is downloading, the magazine reverts to 0% downloaded. I have had issues with this app since day 1, and am considering cancelling my subscription.

Disappointing. The logon experience is cumbersome, and doesn't live up to modern standards - either in the app or on the web. There is NO provision to have the company completely delete your account info except for writing an email to generic "help" mailbox -- also very clunky, especially in light of GDPR and modern privacy considerations. I found this fairly alarming. I essentially have NO option to delete my own account, but must go through their "help" feature to "ask" to have it deleted. Not acceptable in today's market. I tried the app when I heard about the "smart reading zone" feature that my township apparently opted into, which is supposed to give me free access to content. The UI, however, is unusable on a cell phone - none of the content can be scaled for a phone display. Searching for a particular magazine is irritating. With all the hype around this, and the appearance of business deals having been inked to make it possible, the execution is extremely disappointing. It appears to me that the focus was on the business model, leaving the user experience trailing far behind.
