Texas Monthly
Texas Monthly is the answer to any Texan who misses their state like a starving man needs food or a person in dire need of Oxygen. Texas Monthly is indeed the oxygen to my soul!
Login disappears
Login on iPhone disappears seconds after opening the app so I get constant pop ups and ads.
Great reading experience, just having trouble logging in
The app is well designed and has a pleasant layout for reading on the phone. The one thing that is frustrating is that the Log In button in the top right corner always disappears before I can use it, so I am not able to access my account from the app.
Not Cool
I really enjoy my digital subscription to Texas Monthly and was enjoying the iOS app until pop up ads began automatically opening new windows in Safari. Every few paragraphs, while reading an article, a random url opens showing a blank webpage. This is incredibly annoying, and I will be deleting the app and reading issues in a bowser instead.
Unintuitive
This is the MOST unintuitive magazine app in the store. I want to log in and read the latest issues for my flight. I cannot figure out how to do that in the app. I have a doctorate and a masters degree, and I am stumped.
Texas Monthly, a wonderful read.
I stumbled across Texas Monthly because of Steve Earle. He did that cover of Dublin Blues, where it mentions Mad Dog Margaritas at the Chile Parlor Bar. When I googled that, I got the Texanist’s column about Mad Dog Margaritas, and I was hooked. But then I read some stories, very well written , and I was subscribed. I highly recommend it.
When will app be fixed
So frustrating- great magazine, can’t understand the log in issues obviously are struggle for many!
Not working properly
The links to log in or check the subscription disappear
Difficult mechanics
Content is fine. If you are going to offer access by app, you could make it easier to handle subscription. The app is not user friendly. It doesn’t handle the basic user needs for access, subscription management.
Still the Best
Texas Monthly continues to provide great news & insights to their readers about the Lone Star state!
No worth the money
Too many adds, web based content and no offline reading
Login window needs fixing
At first, I couldn’t find the login prompt. Once I logged in, the login screen reappeared over the main window every time I returned to the main screen from an article. I had to manually close it each time before I could proceed. The Texas Monthly content is five stars, but this annoying bug in the app dropped my app rating considerably. Subscribe, by all means, just use the website instead for online reading.
You asked
I won’t renew my subscription again. This publication leans way to far left for me. How about more Texas history, festivals and facts. Leave the one sided political money to CNN.
Long time subscriber
Now even more enjoyment in using my iPad app to read it
App Won’t Fly
The app is mostly just a mirror of the website. You can “flip through” a digital copy of the magazine (60% ads), but you can’t download past editions for offline reading. You can go through your browser and download a single, low-res version of one issue, but you lose it if you close the window. The whole point of a magazine is portability, but this app is really built for reading articles at home on WiFi. (Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have some clouds to yell at outside.)
Review
It’s annoying that you take upon yourselves to enterup our enjoyment of your magazine!
Gotta Read It
I love and always look forward to my monthly subscription of Texas Monthly. The sharing of humorous, heartfelt and informative Texas stories is the best in this magazine. It always makes me feel proud to be a Texan. (Maybe not always the Bum Steer Awards)
Super Weak and Maddening Magazine App
This is the worst iPad app of any of the many other daily and monthly periodicals that I subscribe to and read on my iPad. (My comments here are limited to the TM app, which is horrible, and not TM magazine itself, which is phenomenal.) TM's iPad app requires me to login constantly -- including during the same reading of an article -- in a way that no other app requires me to login. It's not possible to download and read offline. I’m often required to "press and hold" a button to revalidate who I am, just after re-logging in for the umpteenth time. It has no memory -- so every time I pick up the magazine, I have to remember and then find where I left off in an article via a page-by-page turn of the magazine. There's no product feature that allows me jump into the middle of the magazine to the start of a new article -- which means I must turn every page to get to the start of a new article in the middle of the magazine. TM's iPad app is a mindboggling step backward from what its iPad app used to be and massive step away from what other high-end periodicals provide. (Again, we love TM magazine; it's just that we hate TM's iPad edition.)
Would be nice to access a Digital Replica of the Magazine on the app
IThe
The Best
The best magazine in the world!
Can’t login/not renewing subscription
My mother is elderly and has trouble with her vision reading on a tablet allows her to increase the size of text easily. She loves Texas monthly however we can login in. We will not be renewing subscription because of this such a shame.
Constantly wanting me to login
Really want to support Texas Monthly but every time I use the app I get a login challenge. This is a magazine, can’t you retain my credentials? That’s a pretty easy thing to do.
Every True Texan knows TM
Must have TEXAS Chic!
Fix Log in Issues pleaseeee
Would love to use the app but there isn’t a clear log in destination. It just keeps opening up the website though the app
Same complaint ~ great publication but horrible App
I purchased both the digital and actual paper subscription to Texas Monthly. As so many before me have reviewed, the app is horrible and I can’t believe Texas Monthly hasn’t figured out they need to find a different developer for their digital magazine subscriptions or do away with it in its entirety. Due to the number of reviews regarding the App I decided it was best to purchase the paper magazine as well. I have had other digital magazine subscriptions from completely different magazines without any issues at all. If you’re reading these reviews Texas Monthly, please consider getting this resolved so we can have the best of both digital and paper Texas Monthly!
Account Bug Resolved
I had the same issue that some users reported. Changed my password on texasmonthly.com and was finally able to link my account into the app. I had done this multiple times before with no success but now it’s not an issue. Also, I like how you can have an app account instead of just using Facebook to sync devices because I don’t have a FB account anymore. Great changes!
Fix the app
Can’t log in. Can’t download for airplane mode. This app is unbearable.
Texas Monthly performs
Every month Texas Monthly does not disappoint its readers. Intelligent and focused articles which feeds one’s senses. Can’t wait for the next issue.
Website front-end
The new app appears to just be a pass-through to the website. I have been a digital-only subscriber for years via the App Store, but with the new app there is seemingly no way to access my paid-for and still active subscription including paid for back issues. This new app is terrible, and should not exist in the first place if the sole purpose is to just re-display the Texas Monthly website…banner advertisements and all.
Great magazine
Love the digital format.
Won’t retain my log-in
This app keeps asking for log-in despite being a subscriber. Compared to other subscription apps used, this one ranks last. Fix this or I not renew my subscription.
Texas Monthly price by country
A one-time purchase costs $4.70 in Pakistan and $7.40 in Colombia — 1.6× more for the same thing. Below is the going rate for each plan in every country that sells it — the middle price of what the app charges there, in the country's own currency with the dollar equivalent beneath it.
