Make Customer Insights

1. I'd expect more from Make.The magazine's content is good, but this app has a terrible interface.It would be 5 stars if the app would allow storage to SD card as all my other magazine apps do.Painfully slow and crashes a lot.

2. This is NOT a review of the magazine content but the app itself, which is awful! From constantly logging out and not using auto password fillers to unintuitive UI and navigation swiping that is way too sensitive, this app is almost unusable.

3. I believe they have to do on a low budget, but anno 2019, this is a real deal breakerThis app crashes in startup now and hasn't been updated in forever.

4. Disappointed that app seems to be be platform for selling more issues of magazine instead of platform for cross disciplinary innovation.

5. I have witnessed the degeneration of the magazine to become a cheerleading squad for Arduino, 3d printers, and whatever the next must-have motherboard is.

6. And they took away the downloadable PDF option to force us to use this trashHaven't been able to log into the app since I renewed my subscription.

7. Where is the maverick "void your warranty and build something new" approach to life? I have let my subscription expire and uninstalled the app.

8. RIP Make.Can't move to SD card, download progress bar freezes, file sizes are large.

9. I can access the digital magazines through a browser but not the app.cant login to my account through the app, completely useless and way out of date.

10. One star for no ads (but it is paid)App crashes on startup.

11. the entire online presence of Make: is highly bugged, laggy and in general presented badly.
