The AD100 list is a trusted industry resource for top architects and designers. The Architectural Digest digital edition app is free to download, with unlimited access for subscribers. Non-subscribers can enjoy a selection of complimentary articles each month. However, some users have noted issues with the app's format. One reviewer mentioned, "The new format is old, boring and one cannot amplify the pictures with two fingers...leaving little pictures and a 'demodé' look." Another user highlighted the importance of the zoom feature, stating, "Being able to zoom allowed to look into small details, which are as important as the big picture." Fortunately, the developers listened to feedback and brought back the zoom function. Despite some minor glitches, the content remains consistently excellent, making it a worthwhile resource for design enthusiasts. The app offers a visually rich and informative experience, keeping you updated on the latest trends and innovations in the world of architecture and design.

Why did you have to change the fabulous format of the digital magazine? The new format is old, boring and one cannot amplify the pictures with two fingers, in fact, they took off that feature, leaving little pictures and a “demodé “ look. We are in the 21st Century, the old format was more high tech than this boring format. Let us have our magazine back to play with!

I love the magazine but not able to zoom in on pictures anymore makes one miss important details. Being able to zoom allowed to look into small details, which are as important as the big picture, sometimes more as they all together make the big picture. I wish they would bring it back. I asked and was told most likely not; so sad. Update 2/2/20: They brought the zoom in function back, which is great. The magazine still has some minor glitches, especially when swiping pages or the occasional mistake of having the incorrect footnote, however, the content is always great. I love this magazine and will continue to get it. No more zoom capability - It’s back again! I love the magazine but not able to zoom in on pictures anymore makes one miss important details.

What happened? A perfectly fine way to read AD was made essentially useless by redesign. Without a text zoom feature, you can no longer read the text on an iPad. Without the picture zoom feature, you can no longer see details in photos up close. If you can’t read the type and can’t enlarge the pictures, what good is this app? Very disappointed with this. I will stop reading until a fix is made. The recent necessary fix to this app completely made it useful and loved again. Thank you for paying attention to your faithful readers...much appreciated!

This publication is sophisticated. It does a splendid job of curating and inspiring interior design ideas and related designers. Adding to all of this are celebrities. Yes, AD features their homes too. The results? Sublimely elegant content. Why a 4 Star rating? I would love to see more industrial design. I would also interviews with overlooked industrial architects — especially young and overlooked ones. Lovely This publication is sophisticated.

I still get the paper copy. But I love the extra pictures and the ability to see the latest issues before it arrives in my mailbox as well as back issues I’ve long since recycled. The only thing that is missing from this app as a way to share articles from within the app. I wish I could share my favorite articles with my friends. Condé Nast, add sharing and I’ll change my rating to five stars. Great Magazine App I still get the paper copy.
