I love the magazine, as I have for 40 years. But the store and subscription management on the iPad are brutally poor.

I’ve had a subscription for a couple of years. It was great. But I went on today and they want me to buy the latest issue. I have a paid subscription. I just renewed it. What happened? Show more

Lost over 2 years of back subscribed issues! Fix this problem now or I will be submitting a refund and if I have to I will seek out higher authority! Show more

Keyboard is not what it used to be. It used to have so many great interviews with professional keyboardists who were on tour, studio musicians, and great articles about pianists like Bill Evans and Keith Jarrett. I would love to see more articles about keyboardists like the one from a famous contemporary band like Foster the People, and less articles about what microphone is the best in the medium price category. I can read about microphones and other non-keyboard gear in magazines like Electronic Musician, which should be different from Keyboard Magazine. I have enjoyed a few of the articles I’ve read in Keyboard in the past but would like to see more like the ones I mentioned above. The interviews with Benmont Tench and Booker T. Jones were great. I would love to give it five stars but can only give it four because I’d like to see it returned to the glory of the past. Show more

Stay away from the upgrade on this app. I upgraded and immediately lost all of my downloaded magazines. They no longer have me on record as a subscriber. I’ve been an “All Access” subscriber for years and have had nothing but trouble. Now I don’t even exist. Where do they get a 3.9 average rating? Out of 29 reviews, 26 of them are 1.0 ratings and that is only because there is not a lower score available! Show more

I have been a subscriber to Keyboard on and off for 15 years. I have always loved it. Great articles about the guys out there working, their rigs, and a “backstage pass” of sorts to the reader. There were and still are keyboard reviews, lessons, and all round keyboard “stuff”. Now, it has turned into being more about honesty everything BUT keyboards and keyboard players. There are so many MORE articles about drums,guitars, and production than keyboard centered content. Also, the articles about Keys players, are usually about THE SAME players the marquee guys in the prog and jazz world. I also, used to subscribe to Electronic Musician, and it my have changed since I stopped my subscription, but all they are doing to keyboard magazine is just changing the cover. It’s THE SAME MAGAZINE with a couple more keys focused articles sprinkled in there. That is why we see so my articles that have nothing to do with keyboards or keyboard players. Look, I get it I’m sure that there are good reasons why the magazine had to make this shift, but unfortunately there is nowhere for keyboard players to go to find keyboard content anymore. Keyboard PLEASE become a “keyboard magazine” again. Show more

I have been a subscriber for 18 months and after a recent update only 7 issues show as available. No app support contact. FAIL!

Since the app update a few days ago, the back issues of the magazine before March of this year seem to be missing or unavailable. What is going on?

They rolled a new version of the app without having migrated all the previous issues. Stay away from this until they get this fixed!!!!

Doesn't work for me. First time egistration crashes the app. They tell me it will be fixed, blame it on the OS, we'll see.

The content is great but this is one of the worst magazine apps i have ever seen.

Love the magazine, hate the app. I've been a Keyboard reader over 20 years. I recently started to read and subscribe on my iPad. The app is terrible -- always been very rough compared to other magazine apps. After the iOS 9 upgrade, it has completely stopped working. I have no access to my magazines purchases of over a year. I would not recommend purchasing this app. Show more

How do I give this a negative star. Like another reviewer I've found the only way to get a magazine to open is delete the app, reinstall and restore your purchase. Only then can you read a magazine. If you close the app you're screwed. You have to start all over again. Too bad cuz the magazine is great, but the app is crap. Show more

This magazine is apparently going out of business based on the fact the promise update has not appeared by the promised due date. Get refunds while you still can!

I have a subscription to this magazine and cannot look at the issues due to the fact that they did not updated for iOS eight. Business practice and I should get a refund. Show more

This app is now useless. Can't download, can't log in after logging out. I cancelled my subscription with 4 months left on it.

I am echoing the sentiments from many other readers below. This is a great magazine and I've been a reader since I was a kid in the early 80s. The app however is terrible. It used to basically work, but now it doesn't accept my subscription info. Asks me to purchase, then tells me I don't need to purchase since I am a subscriber. Then it doesn't accept my subscription info, etc. this app is very poorly designed. Also, I sent an email requesting info for recovering the app, but nobody has replied or apologized for the problem. Piss poor unprofessional guys. Show more

Crashes immediately under IOS 8. Can't even read previously downloaded issues

Had some issues with crashes at start up with the first download. Deleted app and reloaded with some advice from dedicated I.T. person. Now it works but still have to delete, reload, and restore purchase in order to download the next issue. I have been assured there is an update in process, though. 'Hope it is soon. Show more

App was always flakey, but now crashes when trying to do anything. Must be updated for IOS 8!
