HistoryExtra Magazine users say on Google Play
Very good application but the magazines are too costly for students like us...hope you'll reconsider this Thank you
Love the History magazine. However difficult sometimes to find where I left off reading. A bookmark function would help. Also I wish there were a way to have the crossword on the app !
Good idea, but it does not sync with your Google Play subscription, so you have no access the the subscribers only sections. Several months after contacting support, informing them of this, the issue still hasn't been worked on.
Everything is for subscription, except the previews. I wish at least 2 articles would be free.
Love the magazine itself but the app is Soo buggy. I can't ever log in always tells me wrong password. And the emails sent to me don't ever allow me to claim the deals being offered through the app. I own all but the last few issues but can't currently get in to read anything. Would give more stars if I could at least access my stuff I have paid for. Now I don't have everything I paid for and no one will contact me even after email a week ago. Terrible don't waste time or money!!!!!
