I had a 2 year subscription, started just before it went paperless. (No warning that the paper version was ending.) Ive been slow to use the new format but regularly went in to download issues. As far as Im concerned, these issues should be mine for viewing on my iPad for as long as I want. The subscription cost did not go down even though nothing is printed or mailed (and mailing to Canada adds considerably to the costs). But no, the issues just disappeared off my iPad without warning. I can no longer access or download the because my subscription has run out. ☹️

Disappearing issues
Not an improvement
I would avoid this upgrade, if I could get a do over. Bookmarking pages doesnt work. You have to flip through all pages of an article to skip it, instead of just the first page. And resetting up your account information is a hassle, assuming you can remember the email address you originally used and your password. Also, all previously downloaded issues are erased.
Dont download! Updated
Update: all of a sudden it started working. Dont think it was anything I did - perhaps it needed time to realise Im a subscriber. I did, yesterday, and now I have no issues in my library and no way to download them even though I have a paid-up subscription through Macworld. I advise you to wait until they fix the bugs.
Bad resolution
Latest update made the resolution much worse, especially for the biggest iPad Pro screens.
It coulda been a contenda...
A terrible implementation; a publication like MacWorld deserves better. Unfortunately, the parent company, IDG, doesnt give a darn about the reader -- see their online offering for more proof of this -- the autoplaying video content, ad-heavy pages, and so on. Back to this app. As others have noted, it wont download in the background, so you have to keep the app open and just wait. No working on something else -- just wait. If youre reading an issue and put it aside for a while, your place is lost. In fact, you have to go to your library and open the issue all over again and find where you left off. Very annoying! I gave up the subscription, and the chances of my returning are close to nil.
HORRIFIC
To reinforce what all of the others have said, the shift to digital has been AWFUL! As well, because the app is so difficult to navigate, and cumbersome with having to ref-download the content, I just gave up and no longer read the magazine. I miss the great articles and how-toos. But that I cannot view the magazine in landscape with my iPad Pro is both surprising and frustrating. I wish I could give it 0 stars and still post the comments. Dont waste your money on a subscription - I have two issues left on my multi-year subscription, and I am just going to let it lapse. I guess IDG is more devoted to the PC World.
Unforgivable
If a new Mercedes were introduced to fans of fine automobiles with one caveat - that it had been built by marmosets using pebbles, mud, and their own waste - they would find that the new car had the same level of functionality as this app.
