Poor implementation.

Both app & website are an embarrassment to a magazine & society purporting to be about cutting edge science. . Login procedure unclear, reader gets regularly shunted to "Join now" page even though one is already a member & has signed in. Sharing an article sends a small blurry thumbnail page scan. One can read articles, but saving, sharing and other functionality limited or broken. Lousy, people, just lousy.

Broken with iOS 10

Prior to upgrading to iOS 10 this app had a Text mode that let you choose a font size that made reading very easy. This no longer works. Now there is only one, very tiny and barely readable font size and it does even respond to the iOS accessibility feature that allows you to increase the font size.

What happened?

This app used to be fantastic. This current version is terrible. 😞 It's like trying to read the magazine with a PDF viewer. Honestly, I think they're just scanning the paper version of the SN magazine and uploading the image to its iPad users. The result is a blurry and cumbersome reading experience.

Broken app and no one cares

As a reader of this magazine since the seventies, I was excited to shift my subscription online. For the first few years, no problem. THEN .... A random update and access to ALL my issues disappeared. Restoring doesn't work and SN doesn't follow through with fixing the problem. It is not a login problem or a network problem or whatever. It is a problem with the app that both SN and Apple are responsible for. Until it is fixed, DO NOT buy your subscription here.

Worthless

A year or so ago they had a really good app for reading Science News. Then under the guise of 'improving it' they have come out with successive versions, each worse than the last. Basically the font is JUST TOO SMALL. If you have really good eyes you'll probably love it. But it's easier to read the paper version then constantly expanding the print in this one. Too bad they'll have to continue killing trees for me
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.
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.
Security Framework
Secure the data your app manages. Protect information and control access to your app.
System Configuration F...
This collection of documents describes the programming interfaces of the System Configuration framework. The System Configuration framework provides functions that determine the reachability of target hosts in both a synchronous and an asynchronous manner. It also provides error detection facilities.
CFNetwork
Access network services and handle changes in network configurations. Build on abstractions of network protocols to simplify tasks such as working with BSD sockets, administering HTTP and FTP servers, and managing Bonjour services.
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.
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.
MobileCoreServices
Use uniform type identifier (UTI) information to create and manipulate data that can be exchanged between your app and other apps and services using MobileCoreServices.
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.
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.
