Needs an update

The app doesn’t work correctly. Loses whole pages. Could be that IOS 26 has made an update necessary.

Great content but news and politics are not included in full digital content subscription?

Great content and enjoy the daily fresh content on the digital app with the subscription. I was disappointed to find that without warning I am asked to pay more for the news and politics stories. Feels like being nickeled and dimed after already paying for full digital content. Please address this feature. Otherwise well worth the subscription.

Mobile Device Readability Settings Recommendation

Room for enhanced mobile device content accessibility by way of text-font size, background tone adjustment settings for readers. To improve content browsing experience, reduce visual fatigue (battery life of screen) from white background only settings. (Times New Roman, Georgia font, black background suggestion, 10-12 pt font like on Kindle app).

Reviewers could use this App as a battery test

Seriously, why does reading this app turn my iPad into a space heater and chew through battery like a coked up beaver I’m a lumberyard? The magazine is great but the app experience is horrendous. At this rate I likely won’t renew because if this is the quality of the product they are happy with… not great bob,

This app is insanely buggy, even though they seem to always be changing it, it seems to never get fixed.

Iphone x support pls!!!

Dear developers, please add iphone x support to your otherwise excellent iphone app! On a different note: the news section seems cumbersome and not intuitive in its current form, perhaps you could show as a list with smaller icons?! Anyway, good luck with the developement!

Think I made a mistake

I joined so that I could read Charles Pierce online. Have been trying for an hour now just to figure it out and still haven’t been able to get access to Charles Pierce articles. Although they want to send me some newsletter that is just going to clutter up my inbox. Never have this problem with The New Yorker, so it is really shocking to see something this bad.

I truly enjoy Esquire

I would, however, like an update on the app from iTunes if there were a way to enlarge the print. Otherwise, the magazine is wonderful and I look forward to a new issue each month. I will definitely renew my subscription.

Bad resolution

Have had no problems with "bugginess" with this update, though have had to sign out/back in to reload if make any changes/upgrades ; takes time. My biggest issue is resolution (really noticeable since I got the new iPad, but bad even before); The Economist has this sorted out; try that app and see the difference. Hearst & CondeNaste still have to upgrade their product to have the text (photos and videos are great) clearer. Its soooo blurry.

Okay when it works!

I enjoy reading this way versus the print, the layout is great. However, pages often freeze up and prevent my from scrolling down. I restart the app and delete the issue and re download it but nothing seems to work. It eventually fixes itself but very frustrating when I'm mid article.

Classic

This is a magazine that lost its way and no way it’s worth the subscription. Anything before the year 2000 is fantastic anything afterwards don’t even read. where are the archives?

★★☆☆☆ Canada · v1.0.6 · 24 Mar 2012

Buggy, still

The content and added multimedia are wonderful ... when it works. I've gone through more than a couple app upgrade versions ... Still download issues, covers that don't show up in library, crashes and lags in startup, deletes and redownloads to get things working. Esquire editors, writers and artists who clearly have a passion for excellent journalism are being woefully let down by their tech developers. Save the app aggro, buy a print sub if you care.

Some good free issues, not sure if I would pay full price for the issues though. I had a number of issued download and when I downloaded the current issue they all disappeared and I have to buy them again

Awful outdated app

Doesn’t really do anything but deliver the e version of the print copy. What a waste!

★★★☆☆ Canada · v1.0.6 · 25 Mar 2012

Interactive content good...text not so much

First, let me say that the interactive content in this magazine is quite good. My only real complaint with this app is that much (if not all) of the text was a very low resolution--blurry actually. Being a user of the 3rd gen iPad I find it ridiculous that text should look blurry. I am not just saying more blurry than I am used to with this retina display...I mean blurry to the point where it is not very good to read for much length. Fix this and i'll give 5 stars.

Resorting issues stores subscription.

The update seems to delete your subscription history as well. Chose the restore issues option and sign in. restoring the previous issues also restores subscription details and all is then good.

Because Zero Stars Is Not An Option

DO NOT subscribe through this app. Like every one of the Maz apps it is filled with bugs and will take you forever to actually access an issue or issues you’ve purchased. Piece of 💩

Why can’t all Esquire content be read on the app?

I get at least a daily blast from Esquire with a lot of great articles- I need to sign in each time - why not have all of these articles in the app? Or have the link in the email open the app?

Updated Review May 2020

They’re no longer monthly, and you should avoid any subscription powered by Maz. After canceling, I lost access to my issues during my subscribed period. Esquire used to be great. Original review: Looks like they simply skipped the Big Black Book for Spring, and I keep getting monthly charges even though they’re combining multiple months into seasonal issues. Great content when it’s there, but lately they’re a no show.
