Download our app from your app store. Taunton Apps are available
for Apple and Android devices.

I have purchased a subscription through this app but I'm still
being asked to pay for issues.
Purchasing a subscription directly through this app (at the iTunes
or Google Play store) will make the most recent issue and any
issues released within the time that your subscription remains
active available to you. Issues published before your subscription
started, or after your subscription expires will still need to be
purchased.
Downloading issues of the magazine
If an issue is free or you have previously purchased it, you can
tap the "Download" button to save the edition to your device.
Please be patient while issues are downloading. There will be a
bar to show the progress of your download, but these are large
files and may take up to a few minutes. You must be connected to
Wi Fi to download an issue. Once downloaded, it can be viewed
offline.
Archiving issues of the magazine
On the shelf, if a magazine is saved on your device you will see
an "Archive" button below the cover image. Tapping this once will
archive the issue, helping to free up space on your device. Once
archived, the issue will remain visible for you to download again
at any time.
The application is using a lot of space on my device, how can I
reduce this?
Each issue can be quite large. If a magazine issue is saved on
your device you will see an "Archive" button below the cover.
Tapping this once will archive the issue, helping to free up space
on your device. Once archived, the issue will remain visible for
you to download again at any time.
The magazine download keeps freezing, how can I restart
it?
When you start a magazine download, the process is then taken over
by your device's operating system. These downloads are usually
very stable, but if you are having problems there are a few things
you can do to try to get it working properly:
- Connect the device to a Wi Fi connection, rather than trying to download over 3G, GPRS, etc.
- Connect the device to a power source
- Restart the device entirely - this will clear the download queue and you can start the process again from the beginning.
