Motor Sport – magazine & news App Reviews

Finally, an iPad magazine done right! Easy to read, nice layout, great content. Looking forward to more issues.

All I can say is that this is a fabulous app. The magazine is well laid out and the pictures are fantastic. Well done!

Great articles and pictures but somewhat awkward to use. Need an Adrian Newey equivalent in making this a more user friendly App.

The latest update is really poor, I lost access to all my previous motorsport magazine, and there is no way to retreive them from the in app purchase, it doesnt work. Honestly this is a basic feature, you do not roll an update if you prevent your current customer from reading the magazine! A great app has just become the worst one. Fix this please.

Have no access and getting no help,I have been a reader since 2001 and going digital is the worst depiction I have made. I lost previously purchased material the last time this happened, not holding my breath for a resolution as it has almost been a month now. Have not even seen the latest issue not to mention been able to finish last months due to this horrible update and lack of support for said issues

The writers at this mag give 200% every time. They are the best in the biz. They racing inside out. Many tech issues getting where they have today but its been so worth hanging in for. Been reading the print version for probably 40 years!! So Im biased!!

Motor Sports content has always been great, with the best writers in the business (Nigel Roebuck, Mark Hughes) covering both the history and the current state of the sport - alongside Andrew Frankel for great road car reports. And the new app has matured, with decent performance and navigation and the back catalogue finally loaded in. Add beautiful layout and photography and this thing is a bargain.

I am a racing fanatic sine the late sixties Yes i do remember when Jim Clark was killed In formula two I could not believe my eyes when i bought this magazine for the first time I like it so much i wish i was in born in England! The articles ,editorials and stories are top notch I am very excited to read the articles for the next month Yes i do give the thumbs up to Motorsport And i recommend it to all racing fans Enjoy life and racing Jean Belanger ( Johnny ) Montreal,Qc Canada

Great magazine in a solid electronic format

I have had issues with the previous version, not having access to all the old copies I paid for. Well, with the "upgrade", I see all of the old ones I bought. Upon downloading a couple of them, one crashes my iPad and the others only allow you to scroll vertically, not horizontally. That makes it really difficult to read when two pages contain pics or print on both sides of the page. I love your magazine, its the best. But your app just seems to get worse and worse with every update. Its all very amateur. You should not release a version with this many flaws.

Im a fan.

MOTORSPORT is an amazing publication. It is without doubt the best MOTORSPORTS magazine on the market today and has been for much of my adult life. I had always purchased the print copy until very recently. The digital copy is great except for one important thing. I purchase Motorsports in part to keep an eye on used performance car prices and the latest in offers from the magazines advertorial supporters. So where are all the ads, used cars, parts and accessories, etc. its an important part of what Motorsports offers. I realize its unusual for someone to ask for more ad space and not less but in Motorsports case you bring us enthusiasts together with those companies that can supply what we need. Better cars to buys and better parts to service and support them, heck, you even promote garages to keep our cars in! Did I just miss something in the layers of the digital edition?

Several months back, changes were made to this app and its is terrible. The issues crash my machine on a regular basis. Also, having to scroll thru PDFs makes for an unnatural reading experience. While the magazine is terrific, their app should be throw out and they should start over. Ive actually reverted back to the print version. Their excuse is BS as well.

Not only the most intelligent writing in the sport of motor racing, but articles that grab my interest even though I did not consider reading about the subject matter.

Great app, I still enjoy holding a magazine, but for the times you cant, this app covers it all.

Oh dear. After waiting three months for a version that actually works, and spending a couple of hours or more downloading my back issues, about half of them cant be accessed and simply cause the App to crash.

The app is gorgeous and the functionality is great. If you are a subscriber, dont hesitate to download this, youll love it. If youve never read Motor Sport before, dont hesitate to download this, but be prepared to pay for a subscription because youll likely end up subscribing after you read through the free issue and fall in love with the incredible digital presentation of the best motorsports publication out there. I know this because it just happened to me.

Ive been reading Motor Sport for 40+ years and the addition of the iPad app is wonderful. I still like holding the beautifully published magazine in my hands but this app will come in very handy. If you dont already subscribe then this app should be all the incentive needed to sign up! In my opinion there is no finner periodical being published that covers historic and current motor sport across the globe.

Dear SJRACER, I had a similar problem to yours and the fix is simple. Just delete the app from your iPad and reinstall the new version (hold your finger over the app until it wiggles and a black circle with a white X appears, tap the app to delete). When I did this mine worked perfectly, no problems. Everyone else, As far as the app goes, it is just fantastic. Now, I get a sneak peak of the new issue before it arrives in my US mailbox. This just makes an iconic publication more special than it already was. Nothing worthwhile is inexpensive and in my opinion Motor Sport is worth every penny! Keep up the great work!

Downloaded the update that allows subscriptions, subscribed for a year for 75 bucks (gulp), and still see only the free issue that I downloaded weeks ago with the first version of the app. I believe there should be a new issue available in the store section, but nothings showing up, I got no confirmation that my subscription was even received, and there are no help menus or settings menus that show my account or subscription information. Compared to the other magazine apps out there, this one needs some pretty significant work. OK, AFTER DELETING AND REINSTALLING THE APP I WAS ABLE TO ACCESS THE LATEST EDITION, SO IM REVISING TO THREE STARS. LOVE THE MAGAZINE, BUT STILL STAND BY THE FACT THAT THE APP ITSELF NEEDS SOME POLISH. THANKS FOR GOING DIGITAL GUYS!
