I used to love readly and would have given it five stars but the new app takes a huge backwards step making it clunky and difficult to browse

Readly is a fantastic way of accessing written media like magazines and newspapers (5 stars). The latest app is not as easy to navigate as the previous version and some titles seem to have disappeared... See more

Readly is an absolutely fantastic app
Readly is an absolutely fantastic app
It allows me to read daily papers & weekly/monthly magazines for an amazing price. For the cost of one weeks daily paper I can have a whole lot more. It has an incredible amount of all interests to keep everyone occupied. House, cars, gardening, sport, computing to name a few. It’s certainly worth its money. I personally recommend.

Best Magazine & Newspaper Reader
Readly is the best online magazine, and especially newspaper app that I've used. It's very smooth and especially easy to read individual articles. It would be good to have all uk newspapers available, from the Times Group. Good local news too

Great value for money
Great value for money. Wonderful selection of publications . My only problem is that some crossword /arrow word formats do not work properly. Half way through you are unable to print in the selected square.
Otherwise perfect.

Fabulous.
I have only good things to say about Readly. Exceptional value for money. Brilliant range of products. I appreciate that they even include newspapers which are quite expensive if bought in physical format. All my interests are catered for , from piano to motorcycling ; outer space and beyond. Brilliant and fun stuff. All round excellence.And a great dose of light,and indeed, life- enhancing relief.

Great for Reading Articles at a Fraction of the price of the magazine's
What a great app. Hundreds of magazine's a few news papers to read as well.
One monthly subscription and so much stuff to read.
It's idea if you like reading some parts of lots of magazines as you can dip in and out of them.
There is magazine's for everyone, gardening, house stuff, hobbies ,sport boating, to many to mention.
The best thing is you can have it on upto 4 devices for a ridiculous small subscription per month. Oh and there are back.copies of all the magazine's as well.
Great to treat yourself or a great present.

Really good but not great
Really good but not great. Content is brilliant but functionality is nowhere near as good as, for example, The Times. Being able to move between articles could be so much better and would be great if the puzzles within the papers were usable

I love that there’s such a wide choice of magazines to suit whatever genre I’m in the mood for. It would cost me the earth to buy all the magazines I can read on Readly.
