Customer Reviews

Much improved but stingy

This latest version loads fast and is easy to navigate. I'm disappointed that I can't actually share a full article without the recipient paying. This only hurts SA and scientific knowledge. Alternatively SA could allow just 3 free shares a month and then ask the sender, not the recipient, to pay a dollar for every additional share.

Pretty Good IPhone interface

Perhaps there is an option to automatically download the latest version when it becomes available. If not, that would be a nice addition.

Great alternative to access Scientific American

If you have an iPhone or iPad this is the best way to access Scientific American.
