Ive been subscribing to WatchTime for several years npow and it is quite dissapointing that while the app is free, to get content to go with thatg app there is a fee. For instance, why would I want to buy the current Omega Speedmaster Special when I already bought all the content as it all appeared in print? Now I realize that the primary readers of WatchTime are gazillionaires with 6 and 7 figures of disposable income who dont mind spending $35 on a glass of champaign at the polo matches so what is $2.99 for an electronic edition of what they already bought but really WatchTime, what about the rest of us who arent as fortunate and have keep an eye on expenses? Were the lower half of your subscribers and I suppose were feeling a bit decieved by claiming the app is free. Typically idiotic board room decission that fails the test of logic. Electronic version are supposed to bhe an incentive to get people to subscribe, not an income generator. The income comes from subscriptions. Oh well. Looks like Im not the only one dissapointed.
With all the hype about all access, this app took forever to accept a partial of my subscription number but then still will not provide any access without me purchasing the issue. What a waste of time
I received the August 2013 print subscription at home with a detailed insert page of how to obtain all access on the iPad. Following the instructions, I was duped into paying for the most recent offering prior to being able to enter my subscription code! Disingenuous and deceitful !
This app has a lot of promise. Too bad it absolutely does not work. I bought a 6 month subscription which at this point is useless. The app almost never recognizes that you have an internet connection, even when you have a very strong connection. Ive downloaded the same magazines three times already but have no idea where they go. Yesterday i wanted to read one on a plane but it wasnt there and course I didnt have an internet connection to download it. Ive been trying all day to download my magazines AGAIN. The sorry app says I dont have an internet connection yet the Speedtest app shows Im getting 15mb down/3mb up. The app also crashes constantly. I like the idea of reading magazines on my iPad but this app is absolute POS. Dont waste your time.
I called customer support, disappointing. Did not know what they even offer. Just lost another customer.
I purchased the WatchTime all access bundle for $49 .95. It directed me to this app for reading the magazines and newsletters on my iPad. I had some difficulty getting started with the app but the current version has fixed the problems. Its a good app for viewing the magazines and newsletters. The one point of inconsistency is that the ad for the All Access bundle says that you get access to all their archives. That is not true. I tried to access the 2012 Buyers Guide and one other magazine that was apparently considered "special" and those publications had additional charges ($15 or so). If you do not buy their all access bundle, and only wanted to purchase one or two of their publications through the in app process, I suspect it would work fine and you would be happy.
Followed instructions to load the magazines keep getting invalid input, or error while activating.
Received multiple "invalid input" messages in attempting to log in. Invalid input? I am increasingly frustrated at magazines that cannot create a working app. I may consider not renewing my print subscription over this after being a subscriber for many years. Deleted app and will not bother attempting again until I see a 4+ average. This shouldnt be rocket science.
Watchtime magazine has always been one of my favorite watch magazines and its articles are always top notch. The usability of the app though needs work and optimizing the magazine for the iPad should be top priority for the developer Awesome customer service though.
The most expensive app I have yet to purchase only to Find it will not let me access any issues of what I paid for. Every time I want to view the magazine , it wants to make me repurchase it and pay again. Very aggravating app dont bother!
Pain for a subscription and never heard from them again. App has 3 ads and thats it.
And online you can buy a Lifetime Subscription, not these exorbitant charges for a single issue. Save your $$$.
