On the go

Love having my favourite magazine in the palm of my hand for the price of two new stands thanks HotRod

Hotrod magazine

This is great instead of paying 7.99$ in the store you pay only 5.99$ or a year subscription for 11.99$

Just a magazine

The Hot Rod magazine for the IPad, works, but it is just like leafing through a paper magazine. It is like they scanned the pages into a PDF. It does not take advantage of the capabilities of the IPad; no videos, no sound clips, no animations, it is just the magazine in digital form. A real shame, because a magazine like Hot Rod could be really spectacular for the IPad. The app does work, there are no real serious glitches. You can scroll page by page through the magazine. There are some problems because it is just a digital copy. A couple of the adds, take forever to become sharp, and on my IPad mini, some of the text is so small it is unreadable, and has to be enlarged to read. Some simple programming could have made some sections so much better with menus, and photos that enlarged when scrolled over.

Awesome

Great read I no longer have to wait for my copy to show up !!!

Terrible!

The magazine will not stop crashing! 2-3 pages in everytime. Then delete, install and try again. Bam, crash. Repeat. No other magazine does this on my iPad.

Crashing ! crashing!

Keeps crashing since iOS 8 installed...cant download previous issue... Very desapointing

need more content

All this does is show the pages of the magazine. At least with Motor Trends app, you get related video and other pics that are not in the print version, and it is from the same publisher!!! Also, I have been a print subscriber to Hot Rod for over 30 years, the iPad version should be FREE to print subscribers. I feel like Source Interlink is double dipping by charging for print and digital and just giving the same thing twice.

Subscriptions

The mag looks great on my iPad, but Im disappointed that the issues arent free to download for print subscribers. Id love to have a collection of Hot Rod mags on my iPad, but not if I have to pay for the digital copy in addition to the print copy I already get in the mail. Great mag - Ive given up on several car magazines Ive subscribed to over the years, but Hot Rod continues to feature great cars, nice write ups, and sharp photos. Worth subscribing to, but not twice the subscription price.

Keep crashing

I love this magazine but I hate this app!!! Ive reported it last month and continues to crash. Dont waste your money because when you want to use you can bet it will crash.

Crash o Rama

This ap crashes after every use. I have to delete, reinstall and re-download each issue then it crashes again. Emailed them and only response was I sent email to wrong department. Try and figure out where to send an email on ap - doesnt exist. I want a refund or covert to paper issues. Do not get this ap until it is fixed.

Rip off

I paid for a subscription, cant download any magazines, and cant get any help. Stay away from this mag on iPad.

Dont waste your money!

This app is terrible, I have other digital subscriptions that are far superior to this one. The text and photos are very small, and the photo resolution is so poor that when you try and zoom it to. See detail it is horribly blurred. Ill be asking for a cancellation and refund. John H.

New issue!

Hot Rod on my i-devices, love it!

Works for me!

Love having Hot Rod on my iPad 3. The text is always sharp. Images look fine except when you zoom in too much. Love the connivence too!

Could Should Would

This could be a better app. Its sort of annoying to navigate through and it closes out a lot. Its a sweet idea and Ill probably still keep it just be prepared to use patience..

Do not buy

A complete rip off. Low quality. Completely useless.

Love It!!

Awesome App!!! Now I have HotRod Magazine with me all the time!

No free access for print subscribers?

Come on Hot Rod. Allow print subscribers access.

No access for print subscribers

I subscribe to the print version of the magazine but I still have to pay for the iPad version? What BS. Corporate greed at its finest.

Great

Works well but there is always room for improvement.
