Mountain Bike Action Magazine App Reviews

Cant even open to read an mag I paid for. Unacceptable.

When I read a little of it then it crashes. Waste of time

Cant buy any issues, just hangs when I press Buy

I hate to give this such a bad review but the app is pointless!!! It just takes you to newsstand to buy an reversion of the magazine. That is lame!!! I thought there would be bike reviews and product reviews and links to sites. But non of that is there. I guess Ill just stick to the paper version of the magazine and your Facebook updates:(

Not sure if this online magazine could be more confusing.

So I just subscribed to a year of the magazine and it wont allow me to view the current march issue! Looks like they want me to purchase it for an additional $2.99!

MB Action has been a favorite of mine for over 2 years. However, this month they took my $9 automatic renewal and Im unable to access the April issue because apparently I have no subscription credit. Whats up with that.

I bought a single issue a couple years ago to try it out. I keep trying to restore that issue. The app tells me Ive restored my purchases but it doesnt show up. In fact nothing comes up past 2013. I guess I have a year to look at my magazine before it disappears. Thanks for nothing MBA.

boo

I cant download magazines that I previously bought, some of them just do not appear on the store, and others just appear to buy it, even if you paid for it earlier. Mountain bike action is train to steal their customers money.

All of the old issues I paid for and downloaded have disappeared and I cant get them to download with the new version of the app. Issues remaining on my subscription are not available to me. Dont waste your money.

I have enjoyed the digital magzine for the last year. I looked forward to downloading it the first of every month then going through it slowly a page at a time. I particularly liked the hyperlinks to the advertisers that let me chose the ones I wanted more information on. However, recently the magazine went with a new compnay to deliver the digital content And bam my access is gone. I sent a help message a was basically told complain to intunes... So needless to say my subscription is over. It is sad as I truly enjoyed the content. However, it is not worth the hassel of fighting to get the back issues and to download the currnt issue. I do not recommend the digital version.

After last update I lost All my magazines and the app is charging me for the issues that I have bought. Im really unsatisfied, I have subscription since july 2013 and now I can download a single issue without paying for it again, besides the fact that the previous ones are lost!!!

The latest update has lost mu subscription. Love the magazine but I cant even view it with the latest update. Id avoid this until it is fixed.

The new version is straight up terrible. Please go back to the prior version. The new version is super clunky, very unstable and difficult to navigate.

I purchased several single issues and a yearly subscription one year ago and have had nothing but problems since MBA switched to another app provider. My account promptly disabled and I never received my last issue. All of my older single issues disappeared as well. After contacting MBA support, I was instructed to contact the app store as it was their problem. This was, of course, incorrect as MBA is responsible for the content not Apple. I was also given a canned response that restoring my content would restore my account which of course failed. Also, in the canned response was a statement stating that older issues would be restored “in a few months”. Huh? Good luck if you buy this app. I would recommend waiting until their migration to this new provider has worked out the bugs.

Absolutely my favorite mountain bike magazine, but the app needs work. It tends to freeze up in the library screens and worst of all, you have to be connected to the internet for your library to load, even already downloaded issues. Sometimes if I have a magazine already open in the background, it will still open offline, but downloaded content really should be more accessible offline.

Would love to see this magazine offered in Zinio. I’d subscribe in a second!

I have to download the issue over and over, which looses my place every time. Text mode articles are not properly aligned with page mode articles, so when I try to switch to text mode for an article, Im often put into a completely different article. Frustrating. Think Ill cancel and get the dead tree edition instead.

Not sure how long Ive been waiting but the ability to resume reading after returning still doesnt work. Support has acknowledged its a known bug, so fix it already. No way Id recommend this or renew with this type of support. Great content too. Shame.
