Thank you. Well first of all it’s Forbes magazine and second of all I’m starting to learn everyone’s job position and what they own and do and I’m gonna reach the top level of all of this so thank you again ........

Cannot Access Anything. Very disappointed with this app. I tried everything to get access to their content and at this point is useless. I paid $30 for the year and I was only allowed to view the first month of it. I contacted the customer service and after doing what they asked me to do, I was still not able to access it. I already cancelled my subscription.

Love the magazine. The app, not so much.. I hate to ever leave a negative review, but my hope is the the magazine publishers realize how poor of a job their app developer is doing representing their brand. I’ve been a reader for years, and recently decided I wanted the magazine available instantly on my iPad. After paying for the subscription, the app still demands that I pay for every issue. It tells me that I need to activate my subscription, yet does not have any of my credentials recognized. I’ve given it a week to try to contact the developer, but still no response. Apple has issued me a refund, which still leaves me disappointed. I’ll take my money back, but what I wanted was the articles.

Unlimited Access is a joke. Despite having an unlimited access subscription, I cannot use the app on my iPad. Instead I have to use the web browser to view content. Very disappointing.

Informative. I appreciate Forbes articles and enjoy the knowledge I gain. It's nice to be able to keep up with what's happening.

Content is great. The app is quite disappointing.. Love Forbes and the content. Even subscribing can’t make it so the note that tells you to turn on your notifications will go away. Nor will turning on your notifications. Not all of the content can be read either. Certainly expect more from Forbes. “A” for content. “D-“ for the app itself. One of the most frustrating apps I have used.

Poorly formatted app. I like having access to Forbes on my iPad, but this is the most poorly formatted app out of all of the news apps that I currently use. This is particularly true given the price of the subscription. I want to have access to the magazine; so I continues to subscribe. However, this is the only app that makes me feel the cost of the subscription is not consistent with the value of the technology.

Keep politics out of the articles!. No pc! No slant! No bias! Just a good business read. Facts are presented well and I feel informed vs preached at.

Horrible. I don’t even write reviews ever but this app was so horrible, I felt an obligation to speak out about it. Where do I begin…well I’ll start with the fact that it took a century just for the scroll to register. I mean I could’ve gotten up, popped a hot pocket in the microwave, taken a bite of it when it comes out just to realize it’s to hot, come back to my room….all before it took the time for the scroll to register. Second, I tried to search articles and nothing popped up. Then the user face seems so outdated and illegitimate, like I’d catch a virus from using it or like one of those apps you find advertised while watching an illegal stream. If I could give this app 0 stars, I would but I’m forced to give it a 1, but I guess I have to since the app actually turned on. Needless to say, I will not be downloading this app ever again. Forbes, more like Horbs (short for horrible).

Educationally Informative. Learning and understanding as the world changes drastically daily. Forbes provides insight with meaning!

Im satisfied. Even though, I’m using free version but it has good features that you can use. It’s worth to buy full version to access all features.

Great app for mindless consumers. If you’re looking for a biased source to reinforce your opinions, this is the app for you! I wouldn’t recommend this app for anyone looking for a reputable news source, but I strongly recommend it for supporters of the Democratic Party who want their opinions reinforced regardless of factual accuracy.

Brief and Timely. Forbes consistently has articles that are timely. They keep me up to date on what’s important in a brief manner.

App won’t recognize my subscription. I subscribed through the browser and paid. The app recognizes my login but says no subscription and wants me to pay again. Well, at least i can access content through my browser. Pretty heavy ad load however. One plus: browser access let’s you turn off auto-renew.

Subscription problems. I bought the promotion for a two year subscription. They took the money and issued an account number. However their app will not accept the account number or the other ways to login. I had Numerous contacts with customer service for subscriptions for two weeks I was passed around from one department to another. No one would focus on the problem and it never got resolved. I had to request a full refund. Is that crazy or what??

Crashing constantly. Your app continuously crashes when reading articles on iPhone. Please find a quick fix for this problem. Thank you.

Bad. The quality of its articles is declining and to read it in the app is not easy. Almost impossible to download it and read it when you don’t have connectivity. After being a subscriber for over 30 years I look at it less and less.

Not a great news layout. I like Forbes’ news but it’s layout is awkward compared to Google’s layout. It seems less newsy and more artsy. The issue with the layout is it really doesn’t lend itself to sorting through articles quickly.

All Stories don’t load. Just got this.’Feature’ stories load. ‘Most popular’ load a sentence and that’s it. I can go online, find the complete story so there is obviously more that isn’t downloading.

My review. Forbes is the best media to get informed about news and money.

Objective & Insightful. Wide coverage of business news and social and civic concerns. Well written and interesting. Covers stories that others don’t.

You listened. The fact that I have the option of looking at the magazine in a magazine fashion makes all the difference. Thanks for listening.

Subscribed but still don’t get full story. I just subscribed but the app still does not give me the full story and when I try to sign on thru my browser it try’s to get me to subscribe again.

Why do I need a subscription when Instill have to pay $5 dollars to read a magazine?!. There is no point in getting this subscription! I repeat, DO NOT GET THE SUBSCRIPTION!! I bought a year subscription and I still need to pay 5 dollars per magazine for each magazine I want to read? What is the point? This should be changed.

The Only News App You Need. Unlike the others Forbes is fair and impartial

Good Continuation. I rather wake up every morning and read what Forbes, has to offer than any main stream social media app!

Russell Ausseresses. If you're a businessman on your way up, Forbes is not just a necessity, it is almost a requirement and prerequisite for your success. The app is very easy to use. Just as the brand itself, it never disappoints. It is always a go to place where you can find the stories of the movers and shakers of modern America.

Annoying ads that won’t go away. Ads all over the page and won’t go away. Very annoying

The worst experience. I bought a subscription online first and then it got randomly cancelled without any refunds. Then, I bought a subscription in the app - and never received an receipt, can’t log in into the app, but money has been charged. Emailed customer support - crickets

Have a Valid Subscription - Keeps Asking to subscribe. Worked fine for a few months, renewed subscription back in November and have not been able to access magazines since. Keeps asking to renew. Have sent multiple emails to support team and no feedback at all on the issue. No customer care number for Maz provided. Terrible customer service experience.

The Absolute Best Business Magzine. You I must read it or remain in the dark at you peril.i

Unable to view paid content despite unlimited subscription. I am logged in and I have a subscription Was never able to view full content in the app, only on the web The help section of the app does not seem to send feedback email Cmon people it's not that hard to do it right Are that that bad with your money? Or just my money..

Where’s 2020’s Magazine?. I could only receive 2019 magazines. After receiving a response from what I thought was Forbes, I learned this is a separate developer app and not developed by Forbes publishing. Weird.

Subscription problems. I subscribed the 49USD package on the website for a full access to all content, but I can’t access to my subscription on the app, I’m writing to the customer service but no way they answer me… how can I get a refund?

Not user friendly. App is aggravating to use. Trying to log in and page to update subscription continues to come up. Awful

Something to trust. I don’t do ratings often but the last few years have made me value well researched, reporting that isn’t trying to sell me something. I have recommended Forbes to a few friends who have later thanked me. Thanks for making me look good, Forbes.

Worst magazine app. Forbes obviously doesn’t care about the customers. I have sent in a complaint about this over a year ago and recently and they are standing pat. It doesn’t remember where you last read. Fortune had this issue years ago but fixed it. Forbes just prefers to stick to outdated technology and does not care about its subscribers.

Me Ernest Correia. You have kept pace and fresh over the years most appreciated

Anonymousssss. I enjoy reading and watching the news

Categorizing. You should give us the option to categories so we know where we can go just like the website! Sort the news into categories please!

Struggling with this interface - really not well laid out. I love the quality of Forbes journalism, but the iPhone app is killing me. I see pictures with a word or two of text under them. Can’t tell what anything is about without clicking on it. There’s a banner asking me to turn on notifications permanently wasting a portion of my viewing area. Come on guys… this is shoddy design.

Forbes is smart… But. I’ve been reading Forbes magazine almost 50 years, so they don’t have to sell me on their worthiness. Yet as we often see in business the provider has not tried to buy their own product from themselves. I have a regular magazine subscription and am having a very difficult time figuring out how to get it digitally-which I think I would now prefer. So many less popular magazines have this available. One stand out is The Economist which gives you a beautiful digital, and a spectacular audio version to listen to while working out or driving. Hey Forbes– just copy The Economist digital/audio format. It has taken a lot of effort for me to get to this point, which is nowhere.

Falsification of Documents. The photo on this page is not of Donald Trump. It’s actually Dan Quayle, 49th President of the United States. Joe Biden was never elected to the U.S. Senate or any public office thanks to the Zodiac Killer Funds.

Forbes Forgot About Me. I subscribed online for an annual Forbes subscription in late January 2020. Its now 9 March and I haven’t received one magazine. I guess Forbes sense of customer service is gone.

Great Articles, Buggy App. Some of the best informed and well written articles I have read. Have not been able to sync browser and app subscription.

Factual Reporting. I Trust fobs for report in the facts, they are reliable trustworthy and on point. Exceptional journalism keep up the good work.

Data and fact based!. For people who do their own thinking. Not their political party.

Bob. The app has never worked well. I’ve had to buy the app and pay Forbes to be able to use it? Now the format has changed which I don’t care for. There are great apps out there: WSJ, Economist, even Sports Illustrated. Forbes should be able to do much better than this. The developer represents the publisher and this does not make the publisher look good. We expect and should see excellence.

Didn’t work and took my money. Subscription didn’t work but it still charged me and they refused to refund. So I lost 30 bucks and got nothing in return. And then it was a pain in the neck trying to prevent this scam subscription from recurring. So frustration because I subscribed to the physical Forbes magazine for over 10 years and then to be treated like this is a complete betrayal. I never write reviews but this was beyond infuriating to be scammed like this.

Buggy Video. Great content and I love they’re moving more digital. My complaint is the buggy-ness of the app. Before I’d pay for it, I’d like to know I can watch a video without it buffering for 10 min.

Retry. App loads up but then says “retry” - constantly hitting retry produces no result - disappointing

Great Content. Great content unmatched 👍

What I love about Forbes. It’s mostly the topics, but also the sense that your writers are not in a mad dash to churn out a daily knee jerk column that increases the hype of whatever the story of the day is. Rather there is a combination of acadaemic analysis and journalistic writing. Love it!

Free App, not one free article. Cannot see the value for an iPhone.

Raw and outdated app. Was excited about subscription but after I paid it still was forcing to subscribe and wouldn’t let me read anything. Not only that, I’ve noticed my phone was flat for a couple of days by lunchtime which is unusual. Went to check in the settings what’s going on to see that... 42% of my battery was drained on Forbes background activity. Why a magazine subscription app uses my data on the background all day long? The trust is broken, never again

Extremely slow. The content is great, but unfortunately the app is incredibly slow. Worse, it says the magazine issue has completely downloaded, and then every single page appears blurry and another minute is required to load each page properly. Terrible.

Halfway there. Great article content but the app design and functionality needs some work.

Not bad. Not bad, but the covers never change in Newsstand when the issue changes.

Forbes Articles. Very informative and interesting! Great work!

Great. Wish more content was as GREAT!

Great website horrible app. Forbes makes enough money to hire a new app developer. This app is a disgrace.

Worthless App. Have a subscription and it doesn’t recognize address or login info? What good is it?

Fix it please. It won’t load at all. I haven’t gotten to use it and I even re-installed it. I just want to look at the news.

Forbes Unlimited Subscription- NOT ON APP?!. If you have the Forbes unlimited subscription, apparently that does not include the app? Is it really unlimited then?

Consistency. The only thing consistent about this app is the monthly charge. Where is the September issue??? It’s been two weeks into the month. What am I paying for?

Won’t open or download- will be canceling. Horrible

Owner Operator. Been a Forbes reader for 42 years. The app is a great enhancement.

Perspective. An enjoyable and educational perspective.

👎🏻. Issues signing with my digital access that have yet to be resolved after multiple calls/emails sent to customer support. Unacceptable.

My Experience so Far. I cant Access my Account. Hell i havent even set one up. & I have to pay 5.99 AFTER i py for the Year Subscription. SMH Nooo.

Can’t use. Bought a subscription but I still can’t read anything, you can’t contact customer service without an email and I don’t see where to put it in

Great app for mindless consumers. If you’re looking for a biased source to reinforce your opinions, this is the app for you! I wouldn’t recommend this app for anyone looking for a reputable news source, but I strongly recommend it for supporters of the Democratic Party who want their opinions reinforced regardless of factual accuracy.

Whack. I can not view anything

Maz is a very inconsistent vendor. They inconsistently load new issues. PDF version of magazine never comes on the release of issues and requires constant hounding. Don’t have this with Fortune Mag app or Links Magazine app.

App doesn’t work. I can’t access magazine with paid subscription and tech support is lousy

Forbes. It’s is a very one sided, biased liberal magazine. I would question the truth of nearly every article written.

App doesn’t work. The app doesn’t recognize my subscription from iTunes, and it only has magazines issues older than June 2017. So frustrated....

Bad app. Confusing app. Don’t get all issues.

May [GAOTO53] TLC Of {GAOTO} Be Glorious In Our Spirits And Flesh.. 1GAD

Subscribed but still don’t get full story. I just subscribed but the app still does not give me the full story and when I try to sign on thru my browser it try’s to get me to subscribe again.

So, um... that’s cool?. a few videos of top stories is all you get without a subscription

W. I O oh god I can’t wait till next pow

Unusually difficult authentication. Mad at Forbes for making users jump thru too many hoops on initial login.

Not informative. Full of clickbait.

Can't sign in - app is minimalistic.. When I use the app to sign-in I get the message "something went wrong"

Go woke, go broke!. It’s been a while since I’ve read this magazine. Wow! I’m surprised at how liberally biased it’s become. Silly liberals just don’t understand! Too bad.

What’s ahead is excellent. Great topics Good interviews/ prep by Steve F

Applied for a subscription. Another update. It is 5 months later. They have tried to charge me, every month, for a subscription that was cancelled less than 24 hours before it started. They could find nothing about my subscription by name, zip, address, or (get this) card number! My card provider decided to give me a new card. They were as perplexed as I was. New card, new number. Forbes is still an excellent source of information, but this app, and whomever is behind it, are crooks. And they aren’t even good at being crooks. Simply incompetent. I can Not imagine needing to add to this review again. If they somehow get my new card number, that will be time for escalation. Thank you. Just an update. It is one month later. Who ever is in charge of this app tried to charge me again, despite having agreed to cancel everything. My cc company had no problem denying these people. Now the only question really is, are the creators of this app in any way associated with Forbes? Let us hope not. ******** Took over 24 hours to be approved, digitally. It only took a couple of seconds to start receiving junk mail asking for money. Was unable to login to the app, which is what the subscription was supposedly for. Every screen I went to was asking for more money, trying to get me to subscribe again. The people on the phone were really nice, tried to be helpful. They could not find their way thru this murky miasma of a subscription fiasco. Several calls did nothing. Email did nothing. One screen, showing their magazines, told me I could look at the magazine cover for three minutes. This can NOT be the Forbes I have learned to rely on, the Forbes that is one of the highest quality info sources I’ve ever found. What an embarrassment for Forbes. 24 hours is what I offered them, to get this straightened out. 24 hours is up. Unsubscribe, here I come. The unsubscribe process needed to be another phone call. The person was, again, very nice, altho she was initially unable to find the subscription. She eventually did find it, and stated I am unsubscribed. Time will tell. And now, this abortion of an app will be deleted.

App developer took weeks to respond. And I still don’t have access. Come on Forbes, you are not cheap. Get a real app developer.

This is by far the worse news app I ever used.. This is by far the worse news app I ever used

Pretty sweet. I like the browsing feature!

Subscription won’t recognize on app. I have an active annual subscription yet the app refuses to recognize nor restore any purchases for said subscription

Crashes on Launch. Unusable

Amazingly poor login user interface. I have had

Educationally Informative. Learning and understanding as the world changes drastically daily. Forbes provides insight with meaning!

Subscriptions. Lacking the monthly subscriptions. Lack of response from Apple and Forbes.

Glitchy, freezes, stories don’t update.. As title says.

Do not pay for this. I paid $2.99 for the monthly subscription and couldn't get access to the content. It still says I needed to pay. So you stole my $2.99. I repeat do not sign up for this

Best of the best. Insightful, to the point best of the best

App Closes on its Own. Every time I tap on the app, it closes on its own.

App malfunction. It’s seems that enable for me to access this app, a slight glitch occurs at the start up, which causes me to restart attempts. Then it start up normally.

WOKE TRANSFORMATION. Forbes may as well rename itself to The New York Times or The Washington Post or Vanity Fair. It’s become disgustingly left leaning and at this point in time serves no real purpose other than to follow the the of the Mockingbird MSM woke pack.

Forbes. Forbes is always on the cutting edge with their articles.

60 plus years as Forbes subscriber. Best magazine ever

Too much liberal bias. Too much liberal bias

Everything Forbes. This is wonderful.

Love Forbes. Awesome app

Log in problems. Although I can log in to the website on my computer, I am unable to log into the app on my phone. Grrr!
