I was excited to see the iPad version of this magazine until I noticed that its more expensive than every other digital format. Really Apple??? I will purchase the Kindle edition instead. Sigh

I was very excited to see YJ offer their great magazine on the iPad! However, I am totally confused by the pricing. I get a year, in print, for about $14 and they want me to pay $6 MORE for the digital version? This makes no sense, especially since they only produce 9 issues a year. I would love to reduce my paper waste and go digital so why not offer it for the same price I get for the print subscription? I believe $10-$15 a year would be very reasonable. I hope YJ takes these complaints into consideration. Thanks!
Im extremely disappointed that with a paid subscription of the print version of Yoga Journal, that I do not have access to the digital version as well! Hopefully, they change this before my subscription ends, because I may not renew.
I love the magazine, but imagine my surprise when I found out I can only access the magazine if I am in an area where there is wifi. I purchased the magazine on line to help cut back on the use of paper, but not being able to access it when I want to is frustrating. I paid for the subscription to be able to read it anywhere. Very disappointed with magazine access. You should make people aware that if they purchase your magazine, you can only read it in a wifi zone. I would have purchased the hard copy subscription if I knew this.
How much longer until this app is fixed! I love digital subscriptions but this app is useless unless an active wifi is available...even after a full download.
Thought great now can get the yoga journal on my iPad but this is only for new subscriptions cannot access your already paid for print subscriptions. Hope they change this in the near future. Not paying twice to be able to read open my iPad as well as my printed copy.
I am very disappointed that I cant print an article or picture. Other than that, I love the app.
As many others have already noted, being a print subscriber ought to give you access to the ipad issues as well. Namaste.
winter preview issue in Jason Crandalls article the twist section has content from the inversion section :(
Dear Yoga Journal, Why are you making print subscribers pay twice? I already pay for the print version so please justify to us why we also have to pay to read them electronically. While I understand you are still a business, it seems highly unethical to charge current subscribers double the amount. Based on prior reviews, this complaint and or recommendation has been voiced for multiple years now. Please make this change, as other magazines have done with print subscribers, so we can take Yoga Journal with us anywhere. Sincerely, A highly concerned print customer
Am a print subscriber so why should I have to pay again for a digital version of the magazine. I called and yoga journal digital support confirmed that a separate payment is required even if I am a print subscriber. So this app is useless for folks like me- subscribers who would also like their magazine mobile.
I was incredibly disappointed to find that I would need to pay twice! I just renewed my magazine for 2 years! Depending on the situation it can be nice to have the option to pull up the magazine digitally. I am surprised that a magazine such as yours would want to rip of our loyal customers. If I have to pay again Id prefer new material. Thanks, but no thanks!
If I had known that my paper subscription would not cover the *same magazine issues* digitally, I would have chosen digital instead. Every other paper magazine subscription I have includes digital access. As it stands, I am disappointed at being charged twice. Having a page inside my paper magazine that tells me about what is available online this month only rubs it in.
This is not an app, its an online subscription. And like everyone else has said, charging your print subscribers for online access is not acceptable. Very disappointed in such poor, thoughtless customer service.
Apparently Yoga Journal does not prescribe to the principles of yoga. Charging physical subscribers double for access to the digital version is pure greed. My subscription is up for renewal soon. I wont be renewing.
This has already been said, why is the digital version not included in the printed version. Is this customer focused?
I am very disappointed to find that I cannot access your digital copy even though Im a print subscriber. I subscribe to other print magazines that allow me to view their copy on my iPad. I will delete this app from my iPad because it is just going to take up space. I will not be using it until my print subscription runs out. Please contact me if you change your policy
So I just subscribed for two years thinking I would have immediate access on my iPad. Nowhere during the checkout process did it mention digital access being separate. So sad to discover I have to pay again to read on my iPad.
This app is so hard to use on iPad that it deserves negative stars. I just got charged to renew, but havent been able to get to an issue in a year, and the one on there now is from last fall. It is very easy to get to the ads, but cumbersome to get to the articles. And it seems that you cant access old issues that you paid for. I do not recommend this AT ALL, and am going to research how I can cancel my subscription.
First off, other print magazines only charge once for both print. & digital; whereas the digital copy alone is more expensive. Secondly, my friends who have the print magazine receive theirs long before I may download the digital copy. This has been the case for a year now.
