Skeptic Magazine App Reviews

More please...

I love this magazine, I just wish it was published more frequently and a part of the texture group of magazines.

Good Content, Presented Well

Some of the smartest critical analysis of extraordinary claims, in an easy to read and attractive form. What more could you want?

Excellent magazine

This is one of my favorite magazines. I look forward to each issue and usually read it cover to cover. The Skepdoc is my favorite columnist.

Excellent!

Timely and always interesting.

Always something neat

I love Skeptic, and the lecture series at Caltech was a special treat when I could make it. The app is nice. Bookmarks and highlighting capability would be nicer.

Excellent

There are gems among magazines, and this is one of them. With material for old and young like, it provides all you need to develop your critical thinking and learn new things. Highly recommended. Excellent app; never had any problems with it, both on my older iPad and on this one, an air 2.

Good

So far, I like this app, my only complaint is that Im unable to hold a word and get dictionary definitions. Change that, and I LOVE it.

Great magazine

My only complaint, and why it gets 4 stars is that I would like to see more articles per quarter. I understand, however, not wanting to dilute the quality and to be accurate with sourcing and bibliographic information. I highly recommend this for anyone who values reason first and foremost.

Pretty Stable, Great Content

Some very dense articles, but well-researched. The interface is pretty good. I like the ability to purchase back issues. Just wish new issues were released more frequently.

Good magazine

I have subscribed to two issues so far and I enjoyed the topics and articles. I think there should be more information about each author so I can vet them myself. Id also recommend that there be more skeptical of the skeptic articles to read more diverse viewpoints; rebuttal arguments would give the complex topics so much more life. It would also be interesting to open comment sections, though I can understand why there arent any now. Overall, good magazine and the app works well enough for me.

Good, could be better

The magazine is great and I love having it on my iPad, but the app could be more user friendly. Although the app has improved compared to previous versions, it is still basically a PDF version of the real thing. The reader is required to zoom in and out all the time, which is not very conducive to a comfortable reading experience.

Dreadful

Obscenely slow to download magazine, unable to register via app, website was down. Will stick to Zinio.

Finally

I have been waiting for skeptics magazine to hit the app store for the last year. I admit that the features for browsing are not optimal, however, the page quality and reading experience is fantastic. A must have for any skeptic magazine fan.

Love the magazine!! Hate the app!!!

Im a big fan of the skeptics society and i enjoy their magazine very much. I used to have a paper subscription but I decided to switch to digital. Too bad the app is so poorly developed. It is ridden with bugs and unbelievably slow. I hope these issues will get resolved soon. For now i remain skeptical, but not cynical!

Poor app undermines good magazine

Its a good job the contents of the magazine are still good when you can get to them. The app is slow, crashy and disappointing.

App doesnt work

I bought the Steve Jobs edition but it wont download. App keeps crashing.

Perfect

Works great, and half the price of paper subscription.

This app is too quirky

Problems downloading magazine. Doesnt work well I would buy again.

Glad I can get this on my tablet!

Was really glad to find this app.

Waiting for digital Skeptic for years

Excellent magazine and it is now accessible anywhere I am in the world. It would be great to see more interactivity in the digital addition.
