| 2024-08-25 |  | | I don't like the fact that I still see ads despite my subscription. Otherwise, it's a nice app with great connect! |
| 2024-07-21 |  | | Technology Review has been providing good, dependable innovation information on technology including IT for many years. My parents read it. I read it. Some of my children read it. Thank you for giving me clear insights into possibilities; And the amazing work done at MIT |
| 2024-04-18 |  | | The app has been completely overhauled to actually make it usable and user friendly, and I now use it daily, and maybe even prefer over the Web version. There are some small UI issues, but overall pretty decent experience now! |
| 2024-03-13 |  | | The latest version has fixed all major issues with the previous version (ability to download an issue, resume to reading point when changing pages, ability to change the font size) |
| 2023-11-20 |  | | Buggy, doesn't have all the content that's available on the website, font size is impossibly small to read and can't be changed. Looks like they threw this app together and never fixed all the bugs. |
| 2023-03-21 |  | | Beware, it is a fraud! I subscribed once, they set your subscription to automatically renew and take money from my card without any prior reminder or communication. I tried cancelling my subscription, I am still mailing the customer service, after 4 days still no one answered. I had to block my credit card and file a complaint for the unauthorized transaction. |
| 2023-03-07 |  | | First, it's a horrible app to read the content of the magazine. Difficult to nagivate and read. Secondly, the subscription don't gain access to the web materiale and you will have to double subscribe to get that. The customer service is like an stupid bot, not offering any help. Best advice is to stay away. |
| 2022-09-05 |  | | High quality science commentary from the journalists at MIT. I always make time for this every 2 months. The format is clean and colorful, like having a magazine on your phone. |
| 2022-08-23 |  | | Great magazine, app could definitely be improved. Would love to see some notification capabilities to the app, whether when new issues become available, or when new articles are posted. Would also love to see a better download magazine option/functionality. I also subscribe to HBR and that app has a really good magazine download feature. |
| 2021-08-01 |  | | I paid through Google the same price as subscribing directly on the magazine webpage and can't have access to the articles in it or the newsletters. Really disappointed of not getting the same deal for exactly the same money! |
