Love Zinio!
What more is there to say about an app which allows you to carry your magazines around with you. I currently subscribe to 5 electronic magazines and they are all right there when I want them. No more lost magazines or looking all over the place for them. I always check to see if there is an electronic version when renewing a magazine. Is it perfect? No because all my magazine don't come in electronic form. Hopefully they will eventually. There are a few enhancements I'd like to see. I'd like to be able to bookmark my position with a label and possible underline things. When you read a great article in an computer magazine it would be nice to find it some months later without reread several magazines and then having to reread the entire article for two lines. Until that happens, I still keep the paper copies that subscription provides me. I currently use this app on my iPhone and iPad. It gets the most use on my iPad, but I have several smaller magazines which are perfect on my iPhone when it needed.

Good reader with technical challenges
I have used this app on Windows for years and prefer digital content (it saves trees and is not bulky to carry around). This app brings that desktop experience to the iPad. It works well. Navigating media content is simple. However, it would be nice if I could queue up multiple items for download. So far my experience is that only one download can take place at a time with no way to specify multiple (to queue up). When I start downloading one item and then select another, the first one stops and the more recent selection is downloaded. I have noticed the app has had numerous user interface changes. It is a little too early to comment on the recent updates. But, I am frustrated by the not-so user friendly interface. It is not intuitive. Plus, I seem to have lost the local copy of a number of items and have had to spend the time to redownload them. This occurred again when I moved to iOS 5. It is quite annoying. I dropped my rating a point today as I have been having problems downloading some publications. this app has not been overly speedy to respond to my concerns. I have paid for the content and it is not available through this channel. Many improvements in the app have made it much more friendly. I have raised my rating to a 5 as it runs pretty smooth and has good navigation. Now, if you could allow for background downloads, it would round out the app fully.

Great Platform For Reading
I have had very few problems with this app. Sometimes there were magazines that I bought that didn't download, but support always resolved it quickly and efficiently, and were very knowledgable and upbeat. Any problems in the past are just that. The programmers have been awesome about keeping up with updates and technology, so kudos to them. I love reading magazines online. They are usually cheaper, but not always. My only complaint is that they don't offer some of the magazines I want, but I am getting them on other apps. I love the surprise sales and discounts which make the magazines an even better deal. I have access to all the French and English language magazines I could ever want. I love being able to keep magazines and not have to worry about clutter. This is a big win for me because I love magazines and books, and I like to keep them. Epic win.
