MCN: Motorcycle News Magazine

Won’t even open

Before they switched to this god awful, low budget magazine blog version—their magazine was truly a work of ark. I subscribed for years purely because of the QUALITY of the digital version and the content was equally as impressive. Then somehow they decided on their idiom of “if it works absolutely perfect, eff it let’s start over.” And now we’re left with this abomination. RIP good digital version.

Unfortunately, the app falls way short of the print version (reviewing in 2018). I use this app on my ipad, so I can read it when I don't have the internet, but that is impossible to do. It is constantly updating issues, and then you are prevented from reading without completely downloading the issue again. The downloads are big too. Even when I try to read it while connected, it is always a ten minute wait just to download. Kind of defeats the purpose of a periodical. Also, the content appears to be a filtered down version of the print version, and just isn't as enjoyable to read. They really need to get someone who knows what they're doing to sort these issues out.
