Seventeen Magazine US Reviews

This is ok I guess... it’s so ridiculous how y’all make us pay for this! I literally can’t look at anything because it only gives me a couple minutes to look at each magazine! And personally I can’t purchase anything so that’s very unfair! So thanks for making this the worst app ever !😑

N,c

I love <3 the magazine . Since i have always loved 1D I think it shows the true meaning of the boys . They all are very talented young men. I think they will be even more successful than they already are. I am only 10 years old. But I can still have a true mind. They have gone so far already. They will do great things in their life's. Love you 1D. Hope you like the review. My name is Cheyenne.

So, when I downloaded the June 2013 magazine, SeventeenMagazineUS crashed right when it finished the download, and when I pulled it up again, all previous purchases were no longer downloaded and refused to do so. At the advice of SeventeenMagazineUS help page, I uninstalled SeventeenMagazineUS , reinstalled it and then restored my purchases. It only restored 5 out of 12 magazines. I lost seven magazines and could not restore them - in fact, they were no longer even listed as purchased. I contacted Seventeen and they replied back that they were aware of the missing issues problem and were looking to fix it.
I don't know if any of the updates were supposed to help with that, but I've never been able to restore the seven magazines I lost. I still use old magazines! The clothes might become out of date, but I still use the makeup tutorials and the hair sections and the exercises in the magazines! And I lost all of those!
I'm ticked off to say the least. There was supposed to be a solution and there never was. I payed for those magazines! That's money out the window! And, probably any chance of me getting a magazine off of SeventeenMagazineUS again. I'll probably just get a paper subscription. That way, if I lose magazines, I'll at least be able to find them again.

This magazine was nice, but there are a few problems. I started downloading this on a good wifi connection at 9 am and was able to read it at 5 pm! (While it downloaded I barely used my iPad and it only seemed to make progress when I was in the 17 app.) Also I don't like it when I'm reading in portrait mode and accidentally go to landscape then back to portrait that I'm off the page I originally was on. Now the latest issue of the magazine won't even work -- It's a black screen! This happened after the last update, which you had to download in order to continue purchasing mags.

Oh, and for the people who complain, "This mag isn't free!" think of it this way: would you rather pay for SeventeenMagazineUS AND magazine or just the magazine? This company has to make money --- have you ever seen it on the stand in the stores? Their sales would plummet if they gave free copies away in SeventeenMagazineUS .

But on the good side I like the video integration and exclusive iPad user deals. Fix those problems and I'd rate it 5 stars.

It really PISSES me off that the developers of SeventeenMagazineUS haven't fix this issue with the black screen. I really was happy when I had SeventeenMagazineUS and paid for the year subscription and it work perfectly fine....until after 2 or 3 magazines that it was freezing on a page, and I was okay with that issue. What gets me furious is the fact I can't even access it cause there's just a black screen that just stays there....so thanks for making me pay for something that doesn't even work, Seventeen! If the developers of this apps makes an update that fixes the issues what other people have said it would of been 5 stars...

SeventeenMagazineUS is on the HORRIBLE side. Ugh. First it turned black in the moving pictures, then when I tried to zoom in, it would not scroll around the page. Finally, when you turn your ipad, it freezes and starts flipping out to a bunch of pages. Otherwise SeventeenMagazineUS is okay. I love the interactive links and stuff. Seventeen magazine is great, except for some of the outfits....that they put on models. Try a different style like Miley Cyrus's dress down outfits. And do more dress up with pant nice top and a cardigan. Try something WITHOUT heels. I personally think the magazine is great. SeventeenMagazineUS has it's peaks.

SeventeenMagazineUS is good and the magazine is interactive is okay at best, but we should be able to click on products featured and be taken there, but what really bugs me with SeventeenMagazineUS is the subscription service. I get 17 the print issue, I have had it for 5 years and have 2 years left. I should not have to pay for both print and iPad edition! Customers who are already subscribed should get iPad version free, 2 other iPad version magazines I have do that. So why not 17?

For those that are complaining about SeventeenMagazineUS crashing; when you purchase a magazine, you have to leave SeventeenMagazineUS open until it downloads completely, otherwise, it will crash/won't open.
other than that, it works fine. I have no complaints.

I got SeventeenMagazineUS thinking that I would be able to access magazines for free because I have a paper subscription. I found out that I would have to pay 2.99 for a magazine that I already have on paper! So not fair! They really need to let people with paper subscriptions be able to access the magazines for free.

When I first downloaded it the magazine would not open and the screen remained black. Soo I re-downloaded it and it now works fine! I love how the reader is able to engage with the magazine. Throughout some pages, there lies special 'tap here' buttons for additional information, photos, and even video tutorials. SeventeenMagazineUS is totally worth it and I do recommend to others. :)

I've been reading other people's reviews and they're saying its a "bad buy" and "don't waste your money" but actually I think this is a great magazine. I mean the magazines are only $2.99 to buy. It's more in the stores, so it's not really "wasting your money". I'm having no problem at all with "subscription issues". I love it and I think you will too :)

I love how interactive this magazine is. Click on a story from the cover and it brings you right to it. Your workout section comes to life with videos. The only thing that I would recommend is to allow print subscribers to access their issues for free.

This magazine has got it all! guy or girl advice, look alike clothes for a cheaper price, cheap nail polish, ect. This a defiantly for a teen but anyone can read it. It has such a clear picture and best of all, you don't need to go out and buy this magazine. Just get it for the iPad.(:

I think that paper subscribers should also have a digital copy subscription that is added in the membership. It's a great way, if they lost or damage their copy....so they could see on their tablets, etc... Seventeen should be like those other magazines that let their clients have digital copies that are free with their subscription. I'm really tempted to unsubscribe from seventeen.

I don't have paper a paper subscription so I have no complaints. It works fairly well and I love it.
Of course just like a lot of apps it just needs some fixes, like for those who have a paper subscription, and also HD/bug fixes an the such.

I am a Seventeen Mag fan!

The downloading is taking forever! I purchased it an hour ago and it's only on 7%, but it was still a good magazine and afford more than you could get with a paper version. One thing I wish they had was that you could listen to music while you read.

This was a really great way to start reading magazines until it started crashing. And majority of the interactive parts or the magazine won't work. Fix this bug! It can still be great, just fix it!!

I bought this thinking that, like the "wired" app, I would be able to access the issues of seventeen that I own, as I am a subscriber. I have been subscribed to seventeen for several years. However, you are only able to read the issue by buying the virtual one. So if you download this thinking that you can read your subscription on your iPad, you are wasting your time. Disappointing.

I've loved Seventeen magazine since way before I was seventeen and I still do now at twenty. I am a very crafty person and love to recycle, but I've kept so many physical copies of Seventeen and not used that drove me to buy a digital subscription instead for $10.
