I'm not a fan of the issuu app.
I used up three personal ids trying to register an account, as the first two attempts weren't successful but nevertheless blocked me from using the ids again. The app is pretty unintuitive but fairly crude, so it doesn't take long to work your way around it, but IMHO it provides a worse experience than just reading the mag in the browser, even on an iPad.
I'm aware that it's a stepping stone to a more fully featured platform at some point soon, so I'm not too stressed about it - I download all mags as pdfs to GoodReader anyway, where I can snip out articles, bookmark pages, delete irrelevant pages etc. so that's what I'll do with from now on.
Edit to add - I'm not trying to sound grumpy, honest! Ian and team have done a great job in reacting to circumstances. It's a really good start and will only get better, I'm sure.
