Love my hard copy, but seem to have less time to devote to relaxing with a good read. Going digital will allow me to always carry an issue with me so I can read an article or two while in"down time" mode. Thanks for the app.

Since the upgrade, the app keeps crashing. Please fix or Im going to have to cancel my digital subscription. I get the paper copy of the magazine but I also enjoy the extras of the digital version. So please fix! Thanks!
The screen goes black constantly. This has happened with every issue since I subscribed in Feb. Customer service is useless.
If you love the print version of O!, the digital version Will knock your socks off. The interactive features, videos, sound clips, are all beautifully designed and laid out. Makes the magazine that much more enjoyable which I didnt think was possible. Ive subscribed to the digital version for over 2 years and never experienced ANY problems.
app was working perfectly well before last update in late March. since then, I open the app and it stays open for a few seconds before it crashes. The screen goes black, I end up on my iPad home screen. VERY VERY VERY frustrating! Please fix immediately.
Cancelled cannot get in half the time. Loses issues. Not worth 19.99!!! Must have Internet to use so forget about reading this one on the plane.
Hi. First of all let me say, Ive subscribed to O since the beginning. I have learned, laughed, and sometimes cried, but always enjoyed. Thank you and Congratulations on 15 years!! I just downloaded this months issue. As I was trying to read, it crashed 3 times. Some of the pages were blurry. I just wanted to pass along the feedback. Thank you.
Companies do the most bizarre things sometime. This update is one of them. The original O app was excellent. I want to assume that the new changes are really just bugs that will be fixed soon, like the awful look of scanned pages or no easy access to table of contents. (Sigh). And I was so looking forward to reading the new issue with my morning coffee. Guess Ill read Wired instead, the best magazine app of all time. ------- Several hours later .... Seriously. Someone needs to get fired over this app. If the magazine doesnt revert to the previous format, Im definitely canceling. They should issue an explanation fast. ------------ Dec 8 Update: Ive upped my star rating from 1 to 4 bc the Jan 2013 issue is back to the original app version. Hurray! I only get the app version of O so I had to skip the last two issues bc they were too difficult to read (all that zooming in on the small print was too time consuming). Now I am happily (and easily) reading the new issue. :) -------------- April 10 2015 Not a fan of the new update. Love the content but HATE the "zooming" past pages feature to get to an article when you click on it from the TOC. Please drop that feature. Its nauseating. Seriously dizzying. Dr Oz magazine has it too and I hate it.
For some odd reason I updated and now it not working. I cant even reload the app. This is so bad because I just submitted my subscription to digital. FIX IT!
Just brought this magazine, love what have read so far
I have to say The Oprah Magazine gets better and better. I enjoy how the team has made the application more useful and operational. I have truly enjoyed the videos and all of the new features. Great job, Oprah Magazine!
The magazine is much better digital, but I like having the paper one to take to the beach/pool. Of all the magazines we subscribe to (currently 13), O is the only one that doesnt include the digital version and requires you pay full price twice if you want both. Very disappointed in Oprah.
This app is awesome. Everything you want from the magazine plus in app purchases, scrolling. Jump to section hyperlinks. Im in love.
Elevates my vision for myself!
Oh. Dear. Lord. I can not believe I have to watch each individual page download. Swipe. Wait. Swipe. Wait. I would much rather wait 10 minutes for the entire issue to download, then read it. As it is, if you navigate away from a page and return, thinking "oh it should be done by now," it has stopped downloading at the point you left it. I dont have the patience to babysit each page as it downloads. Seems like a remedial problem to fix, as none of my other magazines have this problem.
The magazine content is great. The downloads are ridiculous. It seems like it only down loads when you start to read the pages. You have to wait for each page. Other magazines down load and you are ready to read. Oprah please fix this. It has been my issue from the beginning!
I love the digital version because I enjoy the bonus videos. Im a huge gigantic fan of the writers and content choices. Being able to take some down time and refresh with my favorite magazine on the go is fantastic. I have ZERO problems with downloading or reading it. I suspect those complaining about the download may need to check their network connection and/or space available on device.
Except for "O" on line. I usually find reading a magazine annoying. However, the online format and the content of "O" gets read cover to cover.
The app makes it possible for me to carry O mag anywhere I want to go, which I love. I can save articles, get them to Evernote, do everything I want to do with them much easier than I could with paper, and the issue looks terrific. So glad I switched to digital!
I enjoy the magazine very much and I really like the animation that is the precursor to each section.
