Harper's BAZAAR Magazine US Reviews

I dont know what compelled them to change everything but this "new sleek design and style update" did not take the basics of user experience into consideration. As a result, i am bombarded with an annoying interface that wont disappear which is really distracting from reading ACTUAL contents of the magazine. The scrolling within each page is already confusing enough.
I'd give 0 stars for HarpersBAZAARMagazineUS that decides to put priority in copying Net-a-Porter instead of paying attention to the purpose of a magazine. But i cant give 0, so here's 1 undeserved star instead.
Sincerely, a no longer loyal fan (who will soon unsubscribe) 👎

HarpersBAZAARMagazineUS stop downloading magazines twice. The second time was a couple months after I paid for a new subscription. The publisher had no record of my subscription and HarpersBAZAARMagazineUS developer has no ability to address a subscription issue and Apple has nothing to do with HarpersBAZAARMagazineUS so I’ve paid some unknown entity for an annual subscription and only got 3 months of magazines with no way of getting a refund. Don’t know if others have this issue but You might consider choosing another method than HarpersBAZAARMagazineUS for a subscription.

My digital page I wasn’t able to open at all for error and they renew automatically as you know.
It’s hard to get in count at w them, also I finally cancel via email and went to their website remembered id and password and all, however I received an email again a week later saying it will be automatically renew!!
I just got off the phone w their rep, said it was only cancel paper(mail) and digital was still under subscription.
NEVER AGAIN!
Plus half of pages are commercial.. not much to read..

Since the switch to the MAZ platform the customer experience is horrible. Providing feedback to the editor and app provided had zero results. You pay for a magazine subscription and hope to see the full page instead of nag bars on top and bottom. You also continuously jump from the magazine to yet another ad in the browser.

I have an online subscription and have had for quite a while. For some reason, I can’t get the April, 2021 issue. My subscription isn’t up. I reached out by email over ten days ago to Bazaar customer support and haven’t head anything. I am going to try to call tomorrow if I can find a telephone number.

I don’t understand what’s going on - HarpersBAZAARMagazineUS now has a boarders around the pages that I can’t get rid of (hi, I don’t need to see the tool bar all the time, thanks) and scrolling through each page creates a lag.

Overall, it’s just distracting and makes me want to wait for the printed copy. I’m not sure who advocated for this, but it’s disappointing.

No wonder your magazine is dying. HarpersBAZAARMagazineUS doesn’t work. No customer service. Canceling my online subscription. However HarpersBAZAARMagazineUS doesn’t allow me to do so. I’ll just have to refuse the credit card charge. Shape up or ship out. Bye!

The application doesn’t always update with new issues and customer service is of no help and slow to respond.

The latest update that was supposed to enhance the users swipe experience has cause an inability to swipe 😥

It would be great to supply a user guild. I found it hard to use

Too many ads all for big chunky jewelry that no one wears.

I just want to point out that if you are a print subscriber, you can go to the Harper's Bazaar website, go to costumer service and transfer your prescription to digital. I know it's frustrating when other magazines will allow digital as complimentary, but after trying and failing to transfer a few, I realize they all had the same reasons: something to do with their contracts with Zinio. Zinio and Apple are two different subscriptions. For some reason Hearst and a few others can't manage them as it's out of their hands once you decide to go digital. But at least you have an option now! I believe this goes for all Hearst magazines because I was able to transfer my Marie Claire as well.

I never thought I'd be the type interested in a digital magazine version, but it's perfect for on the go! Plus I can read it at work and look like I'm busy, which I am! I had to update my ipad to get it to work but it's flawless.

I agree with the other reviewers. This is crazy, most magazines now will offer a free digital copy with print subscriptions. I just received my September issue which weighs quite a bit. Is not convenient to carry it everywhere with me. Get with the program most of us are carrying iPads, tablets and smart phones. In order to have things for convenience. This is ridiculous we should not have to pay again for digital subscription.

I also don't tend to lug big heavy magazines and newspapers with me anymore simply because I have enough to carry during the day. Is one of the many reasons I have an iPad.

Every other magazine I have offers a free digital subscription for print subscribers. As one reviewer put it so well you're going to end up losing customers by not conforming to this as I said it is ridiculous.

I want to like this but the process of transferring to digital was strenuous. Then to confuse matters another app acted as if they were the Harper's access and I downloaded that one to find they didn't know I already had a subscription. There is so much print content in the magazine that it is difficult to read and enjoy on my iPad. I have felt guilty for a long time over the use of so much paper in the print editions of magazines so I probably will continue a digital subscription but much of the fantasy and pleasure is lost. Will I be able to archive ideas and images from the magazine any more? That will be a great loss to me.

When my current print subscription ends I will not be renewing for another year. I subscribe to 5 or 6 Hearst magazines and I will be canceling with the magazines that don't give print subscribers access to the iPad edition.

Just so everyone knows, ELLE magazines are a part of the Hearst magazine group and they allow you to download the magazines if you're a print subscriber. If anyone knows what other Hearst Magazines allow this feature, please post which ones. Thanks.

Enjoying mag on screen especially classy high fashion able to zoom in around and through. Thought I would miss pear but no. Actually excellent and easy to skip what do not want to view. Thank you! DMari

I love that you can save and edit the page or photo you like. I enjoy the scrapbooking feature. The content is topnotch as well. Wonderful app!

I wish i could give a zero as my rating. I enjoy the ease of carrying just one item with me (my iPad) in lieu of carrying several print magazines along. And now I find out that I'm not able to have free iPad access for my Harper's Bazaar OR Food Network print subscriptions? They MAY offer print subscribers access at a future date and at a DISCOUNTED rate? They must be crazy. Doubt I'll renew my subscriptions. Thanks for nothing, Hearst!

I love everything about HarpersBAZAARMagazineUS, but I particularly enjoy the feature that allows me to add pictures to my private Pinterest inspiration boards.
