WIRED Magazine

The app needs to have access to Wired News digital content, not just the magazine. There has to be a way for me to stay logged in and not always have to log into the site each time I want to read an article. Right now, every single time I want to read a news article posted by Wired magazine, I have to log in. It is incredibly annoying.

I purchased a digital/print subscription and attempted to use this app to access older digital issues. No matter what I try, the app will not recognize my status as a subscriber and I’m cut off after 10 pages of an issue. No response from the developer after submitting a ticket. I’d expect more from an app that’s meant to support a tech publication.

I bought a subscription and get the daily emails, but when I try to sign in to the app to view the magazine, it says there are technical difficulties.

I downloaded the app as I bought a subscription for Wired. However the app is clunky and intuitive-which is strange considering that Wired is clearly focussed on technology. I then decided to cancel my subscription. This proved impossible in either the app or the internet site. I was forced to call a helpline to cancel my subscription, and with the helpline person speaking very broken English, this was made even more difficult. Altogether, do not use this app. It is not user friendly.

Have tried to login to the mobile app since I purchased a wired digital subscription a few weeks ago. I keep getting ‘we are having a technical issue, please try back later.’ I guess they want us to just sign in using a browser for reading articles.

TLDR: The $10 subscription doesn’t give you access to the app I paid for access thinking I’d be able to read Wired news articles. Downloaded the app. Then I got the error that everyone else is getting, “Sorry, we are currently experiencing technical issues… etc.” I emailed Wired about this tech issue and we’re going back and forth. I also emailed from the website, which required all manner of unnecessary personal information to simply ask the question. But I got an eye opening reply that apparently the Wired tech people are either unaware of, or something. From Condé Nast Customer Care: “At this time, a digital-only subscription does not include access to the WIRED app. Full access is reserved for magazine subscribers, as the app provides digital versions of the print issues. We completely understand how disappointing this can be, especially given the expectations surrounding digital access.”

Subscribed online and can’t access sub in app. Keeps saying “we are currently experiencing technical issues” upon login. It’s been almost a week now and still can’t access subscription.

Print subscriber, can’t log in. “Technical issues.” Broken app.

Only magazine covers are visible on the app. When I go in through the web it just kicks me out and keeps asking me to subscribe. frustrating.

Gave it 3 star because i really do like the content of this magazine and would like to read it regularly but the app version for the phone is so unusable i had to cancel the subscription and delete it.
