Pros and cons of ShowBoats International app for iPhone and iPad

ShowBoats International app good for

This app works as described and the content is beautiful. I installed the app and had trouble pairing my print subscription with the app. I contacted Stonewash who responded with a solution within one day and the solution worked perfectly. Excellent customer response. If you like really large yachts, this is a great app.
Best magazine out for yacht owners who want to know and have the very best!! Keep up the amazing work!!

Some bad moments

Im a fan from the magazine, but this last version of the app is hard read,this bug keeps closing the app, i tried to delete the app and reinstall, turn the iPad on and off, nothing helped! please do aNice and stable app.
It started fine, but as time passed by, after updates, if started to crash as well wont show me this month subscription. I wont intend to renew it in the near future, as it will expire pretty soon. The subject and reports made, as well pictures and analisys, are very good and I wish I could get the printed copy.
The app breaks down frequently!!! Not a pleasure to use it.... A lot of bugs have to be fixed. And even if the programm is working fine, it runs very slow. Advertaising links are not connected... it would be nice if one could just follow the link....
App does not work. When I notified their office, it took them 1 Week to send me an email telling me they have received my email (thats right, 1 week !!) and then another full week went by and then they send an email telling me they cant do anything to make my app work and they cant give me a refund on the $50 of magazines I purchased. 1 Star only because I cannot save review unless the review has at least 1 star.
First of all this App is not free. Once you download the free bit you still have to pay for the magazines! Secondly, it is full of bugs. Even after you pay for the magazines, it constantly quits on you automatically and very often the magazine that you have paid for refuses to load. Do not get this App until they have fixed these problems. You will save yourself a lot of aggravation.
Dont install this app if you expect to see any more than covers. Besides, I get the magazine at home so I already paid that, but now they are asking to have me pay twice? I travel for work and thought I could read on-the-go. No such luck. I guess the owners of "showboat" think that ticking otherwise happy clients off is a good way to pay for their own showboats.... Update: picture quality is horrible
