Back issues missing

Love the magazine...been reading for decades, first in print then digitally. But the latest version of the app is very disappointing. All but the most recent dozen of several years of purchased issues are missing. I paid for them...now they have been taken away.

Nice magazine, poor app

I have enjoyed Fortean Times over the last decade or so and when it came out on my iPad I figured "great, no more spotty mail delivery". Unfortunately the app is less than ideal if you want to view your purchases in anything other than portrait view. I mean forget the unnecessary things like page flipping animation, in landscape view the spread is minimized to a corner and can only be enlarged to fit the screen if you manually stretch it with your fingers. Side note... that only works for the page you are on and you will have to do it for every consecutive page you turn to. I guess I can view it on portrait mode but the case I keep the iPad in makes this a clumsy venture.

Long time reader and subscriber... Very happy to give up my American subscription (I'm not a fan of the US distributor) in favor of a Newsstand edition.

Love this magazine! I am not a fan of cluttering up my house with back issues of magazines, but love to look over them again and again. Imagine my surprise when they updated this app and most of my years of back issues had been deleted!!!!!!!!!!Why do I even bother? Seriously mad here. It is if someone came I to my home and robbed my library. These were MY magazines. I am so angry. Long time reader, contemplating whether or not to continue subscribing. Be forewarned- you are purchasing a read, not a magazine. 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
