97xx Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Am considering the Gold membership. Can I confirm a couple of things? I understand I can't access editions from the LIBRARY should my membership lapse, but what about the ones I have effectively 'bought' during my period of subscription? Is a web browser the only portal to access the magazine? In other words, no 'native' apps can access them directly? I ask as it's a bit painting the hall through the letterbox if you want to access a magazine on an iPad then? Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold john new Posted January 24, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 24, 2021 (edited) I use the gold route - Not sure about your (1), but I assume we lose them at the end as this is a bonus access not a purchase. The Exact Editions App gives me access via my i-pad and I-phone as well as through the browser. (Android use, presumably something similar) The i-pad allows page rotation to either portrait or landscape so for most pages is easier to read in portrait but double page images can be seen in l'scape. The bonus, and is why I think your (1) answer is lose them at end of subscription, you access the archive back to 2010 via Gold. I see it as a subscription to access a library not individual purchases. The BRM freebies I have, plus anything I bought pre-Gold are in the PocketMags app; that split in the Apps I think emphasises the difference. Hope that helps and that someone from BRM can confirm.

Moderators AY Mod Posted January 24, 2021 Moderators Share Posted January 24, 2021 29 minutes ago, john new said: that someone from BRM can confirm. Thanks John, all correct. The Exact access (look at it as rental of all mags) is different from the Pocket mags subscription where you retain the purchased issues if you end the subscription (but you never get the back issue access unless you take out a periodic back issue offer or purchase older issues). 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
97xx Posted January 24, 2021 Author Share Posted January 24, 2021 Thanks chaps, that all seems clear. I hadn't realised that there was an app for EE. Seems to be an endless variety of newsstand type apps! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
