People Magazine for iPad app review

People Magazine

Price: Free

People Magazine by Time Inc. gives you digital access to the entertainment and news magazine on your iPad while on the go.

If you have a People Magazine print subscription, access to the digital version is free. If you're not a subscriber you can purchase individual issues or buy a full subscription.

The magazine looks simply stunning on your iPad and browsing through it is a breeze since you can use the swipe functionality to flip pages. You can also tap and scroll as you browse through the stories.

The digital version of the magazine gives you a number of exclusive bonuses including photo galleries not found in the print version, and extra photos in the Star Tracks section.

Other fun features include behind-the-scenes videos of all your favorite celebrities, movie trailers, TV reviews, and song samples that you are available to buy.

Because the content in the digital version is a bit different this acts as a wonderful complimentary piece to the print issue. No need to remember to grab all your latest issues as you walk out the door; instead, have them available to you on your iPad with the app.

This latest version has addressed some bug issues that were found with iOS 6.

People Magazine was updated on Nov. 7, 2012 and has 454 customer ratings with an average rating of three and a half stars out of five.

The fact that there is exclusive content for the digital version is wise so that you’re tempted to not only buy the print version but also download the digital one. The magazine was very easy to read and flip through and the picture quality was excellent.

For: iPad with iOS 4.0 or later
