Architectural Digest App revisa

This publication is sophisticated. It does a splendid job of curating and inspiring interior design ideas and related designers. Adding to all of this are celebrities. Yes, AD features their homes too. The results? Sublimely elegant content. Why a 4 Star rating? I would love to see more industrial design. I would also interviews with overlooked industrial architects — especially young and overlooked ones.

Wonderful photography of the current design trends.

No matter what I try!

I signed up for a print + digital access subscription and signed into the app with that info. That worked for a day or two and now I get a paywall on every issue of the magazine, even the ones it let me access previously. When I try to relink my subscription it says that it can’t be found even though I have 11 months left.

This is a joke, yes? The digital subscription type does not allow you to use the app. Because that would make no sense! 100% regret this service.

Used to use this app a couple of years ago and loved the layout & functionality. Just renewed my subscription directly through AD, but the app will not recognize my new subscription account. The “Link print subscription” option only displays my old expired subscriptions. AD’s tech support can’t do anything about the issue….

I love the digital magazine. My only concern is that my I-phone app does not advise of the cost in the app description. Only AFTER I downloaded it was I informed of a $7.99 monthly cost. Hidden costs like this take up space on my I phone!

As others have stated, this still won’t link to your print edition. Many people have reported this and they do nothing. Very frustrating.

No landscape view and can’t even verify my subscription information. Please hire a good developer

Links to reset your account password, or link print subscription are non-functional, as ever. .

The three stars is solely for the app and not the content of the magazine. A feature that is not currently available for this app, but absolutely should be, is the landscape mode. Inability to see an entire image of a two-page layout (which is typically used for the featured article) is incredibly disappointing and frustrating. Even on a one page layout, you are constrained to the width of portrait mode when zooming in on a landscape photograph. Please, please, please add this feature and I will update this review immediately.

Very difficult to sign up for a subscription. My card was charged before I submitted any of my my sign in credentials , now I cannot sign in . It really should not be this difficult to subscribe .

most unintuitive and frustrating app. Impossible to navigate

I still get the paper copy. But I love the extra pictures and the ability to see the latest issues before it arrives in my mailbox as well as back issues I’ve long since recycled. The only thing that is missing from this app as a way to share articles from within the app. I wish I could share my favorite articles with my friends. Condé Nast, add sharing and I’ll change my rating to five stars.

I have been trying for over a decade to get architectural digest and Condé Nast to make this magazine accessible for people who are blind and they have not achieved that as of yet. They are missing out on a large demographic. It is very disconcerting.

The way this app is designed, it’s like it doesn’t want me to use the magazine. It closes without prompting about 10 seconds after you start scrolling. Difficult, unintuitive, unresponsive navigation experience.

I haven’t been able to read a single thing from this app. Complete waste of money.

This app is a train wreck. The sign up process is kafkaesque, and when you finally do get into it the UI is utterly user hostile. One false move with your finger and you will be warped into a different article. Unless of course you WANT to go to the next article, in which case it someone psychically detects this fact and blocks your first 5 attempts. To top it off, this app is just totally unnecessary. Ever heard of a web site?

How do I get landscape view (to view 2page spread)? Also app is does not show up on my iPad (I have to open from App Store) please help me.

Terrible application you can’t download any issues to an iPad

Why bother with this app when it’s going to charge you eight dollars each issue where you can see this for free at your local public library. Oxymoronic!!!

I wish it were like actually swiping through the magazine but half the time when you try to swipe to the next page it does nothing and you need to go into the side bar and select the next page. When trying to exit or go to the next page you need to swipe up or down to make the menu button appear and half the time when you swipe up or down it also does nothing, they need transparent over laid buttons that are small and not in the way to help guide you through and go between pages, there should also be a zoom out feature that you can see ye larger image and a way to read with your iPad flipped horizontally.

Cannot see type down here.

I downloaded the issue and the app crashes whenever I try to open it

I am really glad to have this available on Mac now but I would like to be able to view it full screen rather than one virtical page at a time. Either that, or I would like to have an online version that I can look at by logging into the AD website.

Subscription only gets recent magazine. To get older magazines you have to pay for Ad Pro. I called and did it on the phone. Ad Pro is for the archive on your browser. But it does not work? They told me there was a glitch and I should get in 5 days. Very disappointed with service.

Left and right

Why is it so hard to navigate through the site. Left, right, down & up. Holy F*!! Someone fix this and make it SIMPLE, LEFT TO RIGHT OR RIGHT TO LEFT. It’s like playing a maze puzzle with your app.

This version of the AD app is extremely frustrating to use. It is way less functional than previous versions. Very difficult to navigate and hard to close an edition and move to another. It also doesn’t rotate on my iPad and doesn’t bring up the descriptions of what you’re looking at. Really surprising and disappointing that this is the best they can do.

I have paid 240$ for my subscription and the process is too complicate. Continuos errors on the sign in process. I have not been able yet

Can’t download version from their app. Customer Service didn’t know what to do. Still no fix.

A waste of money. I don’t understand what exactly I have access to for $19.99

Estoy muy disgustada con mi compra

Had to deleted 3 times after installation. Had issues in downloading issues. Many features which are making the application slow.

You know good and well what all of the critics are saying so your pasting the optimized zoom for a response is bogus! What you’ve done was basically gone to a PDF of the actual print magazine with zoom whereas in the past the magazine was made for the digital format and was absolutely perfect! One of the best digital mags...but now it’s terrible! I imagine this is cheaper for you and even though your magazine has always been about quality you’ve chosen to go down the other path. So very disappointing. Even the resolution is different...shame!

Everything i did i expected paper subscriptions, but after not ever receiving, decided to hunt down my email confirmation. Logged in and see i have a digital subscription. Cancelling required me to register and put my shipping address and hunt for turning off "auto renewal" and cancel.

I have paid for the subscription and it will not download any magazines.

I love the magazine but not able to zoom in on pictures anymore makes one miss important details. Being able to zoom allowed to look into small details, which are as important as the big picture, sometimes more as they all together make the big picture. I wish they would bring it back. I asked and was told most likely not; so sad. Update 2/2/20: They brought the zoom in function back, which is great. The magazine still has some minor glitches, especially when swiping pages or the occasional mistake of having the incorrect footnote, however, the content is always great. I love this magazine and will continue to get it.

What happened? A perfectly fine way to read AD was made essentially useless by redesign. Without a text zoom feature, you can no longer read the text on an iPad. Without the picture zoom feature, you can no longer see details in photos up close. If you can’t read the type and can’t enlarge the pictures, what good is this app? Very disappointed with this. I will stop reading until a fix is made. The recent necessary fix to this app completely made it useful and loved again. Thank you for paying attention to your faithful readers...much appreciated!

Why did you have to change the fabulous format of the digital magazine? The new format is old, boring and one cannot amplify the pictures with two fingers, in fact, they took off that feature, leaving little pictures and a “demodé “ look. We are in the 21st Century, the old format was more high tech than this boring format. Let us have our magazine back to play with!

Worsening format changes make AD harder and harder to read/enjoy. Dense, tiny text that cannot be enlarged fills pages, photos are smaller, pages more crowded w/ a cluttered look. This used to be one of the view magazines that was more enjoyable in digital form. No more. I thought Anna Wintour had creative input here. Please fix this Anna! AD demographic are mostly the reading glasses set anyway. So are ipad users!

This version is terrible. You can only look at it in portrait on iPad. Not seeing both pages. Small fonts and you can not enlarge. Photos cannot be enlarged so often missing details. I am now reading it with my printed version instead of electronic. Absolutely useless and when is the next update?

I use a pad so I can zoom in on photos and unfortunately AD has changed tons static view. Das!

The new app is a PDF of the print version minus the ability to zoom or click on links. No thanks. Just canceled my subscription. Condé Nast did this to Bon Appétit as well (canceled last week).

Unless AD quickly upgrades their new app I'll be a past-subscriber. Not only can I not read the new months magazine, but SEVEN years of digital issues are worthless to me.

Is it just me, or did AD go to just static pages? Very hard to read.

The latest update to this app is the worst and is making me doubt if I will renew. I like the publication; however, there’s some incredible incompetency demonstrated.

I used to look forward to the new issue of AD to read on iPad. It looked fantastic. You scrolled vertically for articles, could magnify most rooms, click to see captions and click for details to disappear, and the font was adjusted so you could read comfortably on your iPad. You could link to articles from the table of contents, and jump from article to article by clicking on a sidebar table of contents. Now it is as though Condé Nast just digitally uploaded the magazine page by page. No adjustment of font or layout. Good luck reading all that tiny text intended for a big magazine on your iPad with no magnification or zoom allowed! The helpful directions as you open the magazine read “swipe from right to left.” That is the extent of the app’s functionality. That’s all you are able to do once you are in the magazine. Want to revisit an earlier article when you’re at the end of the magazine? Hope you enjoy swiping through 100 pages to get there. Ready to close the magazine and revisit an old issue? I tapped and tapped but could find no exit function. I work with digital things all day and have for years and years so it’s not my problem— the English House and Garden share this problem. I had to click on the iPad home button to leave the magazine and every time I clicked on the app, the magazine didn’t open to the library with all the back issues — dumb business decision because I often have bought back copies in the past — but to that same issue on the page I had left. What’s going on, Condé Nast? First the July edition arrived a week into the month. But at least the magazine was a treat to read once it got here. Thanks for nothing, Conde Nast. I guess you are trying to save money by you are killing the golden goose. And will the celebs really want to share their homes with you if it means their homes are viewed with this limited app? The celebs do love their iPads. Doesn’t anyone at Condé Nast get that??

The new version breaks nearly everything. You can’t expand text or zoom into pictures anymore. The index is NOT HYPERLINKED now either, and the page numbers in the index DON’T MATCH THE PAGE NUMBERS. So, the index says 110, but you can’t jump there. You have to bring up the list of pages and scroll to page 110, but that is actually shown as page 108. If you go further, the discrepancy increases. It’s actually the worse magazine reader I’ve ever used, and for the last few years was one of the best. Crazy how lame it is, you have to really work at it to make it this bad.
