Pros and cons of Forbes Magazine app for iPhone and iPad

Forbes Magazine app good for

I dont have an annual subscription to Forbes Magazine but I always read the articles on their website. Its awesome I can do that here regularly.

I love the new intuitive look and feel of the app, and I can still access the print version of the magazine. A good mix of website and the print version. Keep it up Forbes!

Some bad moments

Please go back to the previous magazine version. Basically this one is just a browser!

Do not recommend. Way too many advertisements. Obviously the company is in financial distress or willing to piss off every customer they have left with non stop advertising. Like theres a fine line and Forbes has crossed it only caring about making money off of customers by selling advertisements. Go bankrupt sell to someone that has vision.

The app is utterly unwelcoming. The trial time lasts 2 minutes (yes, just 120 seconds. That is pretty much it) and offers just a few articles that can date back to 1992 (there is just one article from this year when I opened the app...). The bombarding advertisements are no better. Without paying for the magazine, costing nice 6 euros, or a year long access – dozens of euros – there is no way to see whether the app is worth it. The trial time is ridiculously short, the articles are not new at all, and the ads that require you to wait specific time before allowing you to cancel them, makes the app a misery. I enjoy reading Forbes, but the app is a failure if compared to any other app with news or even basic articles.

Your stupid stupid app doesnt word After your last update: trying to switch to PDF view produce a black page

I tried to obtain the digital subscription. I am a print subscriber. The digital subscription should be included for free. I have now tried to pay twice for the digital subscription and it still has not gone through. They do not even have a phone number you can call. This is one of the worst experiences of hat with an iPad app.as a follow-up, the app is very bad and freezes constantly.

Its not easy/fun to read by magazine edition without a search tool, plus a big timer pops up and only allows you to read for a 2 minute preview. Whats the point of the app?
