DownBeat Mag

I’ve been complaining about this app for years. It’s almost working now for subscriptions. But I still have one complaint. If I happen to forget to open a monthly issue before the next comes out, that previous issue is unavailable to me unless I buy it. If I have a one year subscription it shouldn’t matter whether I open it on time or not. Come on Downbeat, just do things right.

I decided to download and give it a try despite all the negative reviews. And I just wasted my time. The app is terrible. It doesn’t even offer a mechanism to connect to an existing DB account: you can only buy a new subscription. Calling this a dumb app is offensive to the vast family of dumb apps out there.

Download the app thinking it would be as good as the Guitar World app. I subscribed, newest issue loaded, but I can’t use the app to purchase back issues. I can only get previews. Tried emailing support but they haven’t helped. Hoping this review will help them solve the issue.
