Texture – Unlimited Magazines at App Store analyse

Saw that Texture was one of the App Stores "Best of 2016"; five minutes later Id signed up for a monthly paid account. Im admittedly a magazine addict. I am one of those people who buys every magazine at the airport newsstand, then guiltily disposes of them weeks later (or maybe sometimes months later, to my husbands chagrin). And, as someone who *already* subscribes to far too many print publications -- then guiltily tosses those out, often unread, too -- I give this app a big thumbs-up for cutting down on both clutter and paper waste. What impresses me most, however, is the UI. A "most popular articles" feed? A "curated articles" feed? My God, its everything Ive ever wanted! Best of all, Texture offers the "digital" versions of magazines when available -- GQ and Esquires iPad editions are especially futuristic and glitzy. Some of my favorite "niche" publications arent here, which is fine. Just the fact that I can regularly read both Us Weekly *and* TIME Magazine within the same app is worth a lot more to me than what Im paying. Nice job, Texture! (Please never leave me)

No more paper!

Nice, good quality app. The magazine pages and images are crystal clear. A lot of the magazines have cool interactive features. I thought Id only like viewing magazines on my iPad, but a lot of the featured articles are adapted to the smaller iPhone screen.

Texture is truly awesome. It finally put to to rest figuring out which magazines to subscribe to to get the best value. Now I can juggle liberal and conservative thought leaders alongside technology innovators. Simply having The New Yorker, Wired, National Review (yes, I have been reading conservative thought leaders since the 1980s) as well as many other excellent pubs like MacWorld and PC Magazine...I just think its great. Although my punctuation has gone awry, the excellent writers and editors have retained theirs in all their ink-stained wrench converted to digital glory. I get so much more out of this app than pretty much any digital product. Although I worked in newspapers and have a literary arts and music performance background my longing for newsprint has finally subsided and a worthy replacement has been revealed. Texture alongside Stitcher radio podcast aggregator are the main methods I receive variety of news and information. I have made it a point to include alternate and conflicting viewpoints in my reading and podcast listening for a more well rounded continuing education approach. Someone needs to make sure the Windows 10 version gets updated and also some magazines format in a way that requires to small pages vs having one landscape page and some magazines in Windows 10 version do not allow to zoom or increase font size so theres that. Texture could force developers to include these options in their submissions from publishers as part of accessibility requirements. All in all, I think Texture could save the planet with readers gaining a fact-based approach to developing their opinions and also gaining from the longer perspective including historical references and context versus modern medias need for eyeballs and clickbate/ratings circus social media and cable news dumbfoolery.

I love being able to read my favorite magazines without having to subscribe to them individually. Its also nice to have this access on my smartphone instead of shlepping around a bunch of magazines. By subscribing to Texture, Im saving both money and the environment. Such a deal.

This app is going to save me a lot of money! Love the selection of magazines and do not miss the paper. My TV time is really going to suffer.

Price isnt bad, but no gun magazines!
