About

COMMENTARY is America’s premier monthly magazine of opinion and a pivotal voice in American intellectual life. Since its inception in 1945, and increasingly after it emerged as the flagship of neoconservatism in the 1970’s, the magazine has been consistently engaged with several large, interrelated questions: the fate of democracy and of democratic ideas in a world threatened by totalitarian ideologies; the state of American and Western security; the future of the Jews, Judaism, and Jewish culture in Israel, the United States, and around the world; and the preservation of high culture in an age of political correctness and the collapse of critical standards.

Many of COMMENTARY’s articles have been controversial, and more than a few have been hugely influential, touchstones for debate and discussion in universities, among policy analysts in and out of government, within the ranks of professionals and community activists of all kinds, and in circles of serious thought worldwide. A large number of articles can be counted as landmarks of American letters and intellectual life. Agree with it or disagree with it, COMMENTARY cannot be ignored. To read it is to take part in the great American discussion.

I'd love to rate this App highly...

But I can't, simply because there's no unpinch-to-enlarge feature. Commentary's articles are usually well written, interesting and long, but how this tiny font can be read by anyone for a long period is beyond me. So an otherwise highly desirable App will largely go unused.

App works OK but no Desktop connection

I like Commentary magazine. I moved my subscription to my iPad/App Store with automatic renewal. After my subscription renewed, I lost access to Commentary online with archive and single article downloads. About the app: 1. It works OK if all you want is to read/keep the current issue or those for which you've previously paid. 2. On a seemingly random basis all the issues get deleted and you have to reload them. 3. Reloading is a long and laborious process. 4. As mentioned, there is no way to save single articles for later access.

Good content, terrible app

Have had to remove and re-download app every time I try to read issue. Unless resolved, I will cancel subscription.

Thank you, Jocalgal.

I almost made the same mistake. The app's convenient and good looking, but I wish there were a way to change type sizes, mark up the text, and forward an occasional article.

No offline reading

Even though stated in the app description, the application doesn't allow offline reading. If this is due to a bug, please fix the app. Otherwise correct the false and misleading description! Unfortunately, a magazine I can not read offline is useless to me.

Buy the app via the Commentary website

I love Commentary magazine, and the ipad app has a great display format. However, I discovered a problem when I went to the website to print an article that I wanted to mark up with a highlighter. The website doesn't recognize iTunes app users. I phoned the help line. I was told that you must buy the ipad app via the magazine's website in order to have access to their website edition. Bummer! They suggested that I cancel the iTunes purchase and repurchase the app via their site.
AVFoundation
The AV Foundation framework provides an Objective-C interface for managing and playing audio-visual media in iOS and OS X applications.
Core Foundation Framework
Core Foundation is a framework that provides fundamental software services useful to application services, application environments, and to applications themselves. Core Foundation also provides abstractions for common data types, facilitates internationalization with Unicode string storage, and offers a suite of utilities such as plug-in support, XML property lists, URL resource access, and preferences.
Core Graphics
The Core Graphics framework is based on the Quartz advanced drawing engine. It provides low-level, lightweight 2D rendering with unmatched output fidelity. You use this framework to handle path-based drawing, transformations, color management, offscreen rendering, patterns, gradients and shadings, image data management, image creation, and image masking, as well as PDF document creation, display, and parsing.
Core Location Framework
The Core Location framework lets you determine the current location or heading associated with a device. The framework uses the available hardware to determine the user’s position and heading. You use the classes and protocols in this framework to configure and schedule the delivery of location and heading events. You can also use it to define geographic regions and monitor when the user crosses the boundaries of those regions. In iOS, you can also define a region around a Bluetooth beacon.
CoreMedia
The Core Media framework defines the media pipeline used by AVFoundation and other high-level media frameworks found on Apple platforms. Use Core Media's low-level data types and interfaces to efficiently process media samples and manage queues of media data.
Foundation Framework
The Foundation framework provides a base layer of functionality for apps and frameworks, including data storage and persistence, text processing, date and time calculations, sorting and filtering, and networking. The classes, protocols, and data types defined by Foundation are used throughout the macOS, iOS, watchOS, and tvOS SDKs.
Launch Services
macOS Launch Services is an API that enables a running app to open other apps or their document files, similar to the Finder or the Dock.Launch Services eliminates apps having to query the Finder to open an app, document, or URL for them. The macOS Finder itself uses Launch Services to perform such tasks. Because the Finder performs no additional processing beyond calling Launch Services, any client using Launch Services for these purposes behaves identically to the Finder.
Quartz Core Framework
Allow users to browse, edit, and save images, using slideshows and Core Image filters.The Quartz Composer API supports processing and rendering graphical data and allows developers to create custom patches for the Quartz Composer developer tool. ImageKit provides user interface support for browsing, editing, and saving images, showing slideshows, and browsing and previewing Core Image filters. PDFKit is a technology that allows applications to display and manipulate PDF documents.
Security Framework
Secure the data your app manages. Protect information and control access to your app.
UIKit
The UIKit framework (UIKit.framework) provides the crucial infrastructure needed to construct and manage iOS apps. This framework provides the window and view architecture needed to manage an app’s user interface, the event handling infrastructure needed to respond to user input, and the app model needed to drive the main run loop and interact with the system.
