Archie Comics Reader App Reviews

I had 207 books. I loved this ap. I spent a fair amount of money here the past four years. All of my books are gone all of them. I hate this ap. I hate it, and now I hate Archie comics too. Ohhhh and when you do buy a book, good luck trying to turn the pages. Its seriously the worst reading ap Ive ever had. Bye bye.

This is what Ive been waiting for, an app that combines all imprints of Archie Comics. Its true you could stick to one app but there were problems with items such as The Fox mini series allowing you to buy the first four issues on the Archie app but the Red Circle was the only place to get the fifth issue. Now there have been some issues with all my issues restoring to the new app but the customer service has been outstanding and slowly but surely each of my purchases are making their way to the new app. One suggestion I have is a fit to screen option. I still have the same problem on my iPad needing to rescale each page to get the top and bottom on the screen. Still, I love getting everything in one place finally and how pleasant customer service has been to work with getting all my issues. I do wish the website still functioned more like it did than simply pointing us to the app. But all thing considered, I love the renovation and quick response time from customer service. I highly recommend this app to anyone who loves all the imprints from Archie.

I am a huge fan of Archie comics, but this update is just terrible. I wish there was a way not to update, but I cant see one. The app was obviously designed for the iPad, and on my phone the graphics are overwhelming and it always freezes up. I have had a subscription to the unlimited program they offer for over a year now, and love Archie comics. The only problem is the fact it is so difficult to navigate! I cant find anything, it always freezes up and shuts down from excessive images, and I lost every comic Id bought previously. Very disappointed and do not think I will continue my subscription.

Poorly designed interface. Can never easily download the UNLIMITED books that I pay a lot of money for on a monthly subscription. Now this new app is trying to charge me for everything I want to read even though the monthly unlimited fee just got sucked out of my card a week ago. I love reading Archies but this app makes it too frustrating and no longer worth it. Im going back to the actual paper books!!

Omg! I had like 200 comics on the old app! It said my email doesnt exist but I get Archie emails to that address everyday!!! I had to create a new account and it said that I had 0 purchases to transfer!! Im officially done with Archie comics! PLEASE FIX!!

None of my old comics were restored. I read the FAQ and did what it said to restore. But nothing is there. The app is not helpful at all. It has very little info to help you. I am not happy with this app and hope there will be some updates with improvements.

Cant even sign in

But I do not understand why theres two apps now also the app recently hasnt been opening for me!!

(Update: January 29 2016) I just recently downloaded all the Dollar Digest 70 free issues you gave away in the store. In order to make space for the new free issues you have this week, I decided to delete them all. To my surprise, none of them were saved in the cloud, and now I have to purchase each one of them again. In all honesty, I feel extremely disappointed right now. I am trying to like your app, but I simply cant. I have experienced so many issues with your service that at this point, I am ready to give it up all together. First, I lost most of my purchase history when the app was revamped twice in the past 2 years. That was money wasted. On the last failed update (the addition of the new app), I complained to you and I was given a 3 month access of unlimited service as a consolation price. To be honest, I felt ripped off because all I cared about was the recovery of my rightfully purchase material. Your approach was only a quick fix that did not address the real problems. When you gave away all the Dollar Digest issues for free a few weeks back, I thought to myself that you were trying to redeem yourselves of all the negative feedback. I was hopeful for a moment, but yet again, my high expectations came crashing down. Without the ability of saving stuff in the cloud there is no point in giving anything for free, because truthfully it is not. If I have to repurchase what I already owned, then there is no point in calling it a gift. It is just a misleading and cheap tactic to keep customers in. Nothing more and nothing less. As a long time fan of Archie Comics and as a consumer, I have a word of advise for you. Fix your problems. Give customers what they want and provide the best service possible. In this time and age of virtual integration, It is unacceptable to see an app and a cloud service that are incapable to do basic tasks. My hard earned money will continue to support companies that do not let me down or feeling cheated. Sadly, yours is not making the cut for the time being. (Original post: Dec 21 2015) I am terrible disappointed with this new app. Many of my old comics simply disappeared with the update and there is no way to access my previous purchase history. Also the interface does a poor job in showcasing all the available series and titles. Browsing through the store becomes a nuisance due to the lack of a proper searching option. This is the second time the app has received a major overhaul in the past few years. Each time, the experience has been very unpleasant. At this point, I am not interested in putting more money into this app until all the issues are addressed properly. I rather spend my hard earned cash in other places like the Comixology app, where I know that all my comics and purchase history are well preserved in the cloud and I can access them anytime anywhere. The cosmetic changes made on this new app are not enough to justify its poor implementation and lackluster service.

Cannot access purchased content...

No point in having a subscription if you cant log in to see content that you paid for.

Archies comics were some of my favorite in my childhood, but now Archie has changed greatly.

Im a huge Archie comic fan and have almost 200 of them. Its really nice because you can zoom in and explore the entire page! Many of them are free so its great and I definitely will recommend it to my friends!

Its great but what if ur almost done with ur free comic level.Are we going to have pay or will there be more free stuff

I really enjoy this app and use it every night. I have been an Arcie comic collector for 35 years and I love how the new styles, characters, and stories that have been introduced-Afterlife w Archie, & Sabrina horror are my favorites!! This app works well and is easy to use- loads of free comics too!!

I will be upfront and say I am more of a Sonic and Mega Man fan than an Archie one. However, my love for this app is still heavily present. Originally, there were two different apps for the two comic series. One for all Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic Universe, etc.; and one for the Mega Man comics. Now, both are under the same app and one that looks very professional to boot.

Love this app love Archie it lets me read the ones I dont have on paper I have over 40 on paper

After figuring it all out and got comics back , All works fine, thank you

Up until this last upgrade, I could bring my iPad anywhere and read my Archie Comics, but now if Im not anywhere around internet, I get a blank screen and Ive lost all my downloaded comics. When I get back home, I have to download them all over again.

This app is great. I have got a ton of comics on here
