News in general or even hearing bits of what is happening in the world nowadays can be (is!) frustrating and aggravating. Reading about new discoveries, insights and changes to largely accepted knowledge is exciting - and relaxing. I find it so encouraging that disciplined and civil scientific debate continues, and the breadth of topics and accessible reporting engage my mind without stressful thinking. So I enjoy reading about new learning in and about our world, and can relax without the vexing politics and human affairs in general. It leaves me grateful and fascinated in this amazing world that we live in.

I expect better these days than a surprise 3 mo subscription after a monthly sign up. Also have to go through several steps to request (not actually achieve) a cancellation. Scams work this way - it's a shame New Scientist does as well.

New Scientist consistently publishes, accessible, fascinating, and timely articles about everything from snails to planets to universes and back to gut bugs. I still love the economist in the New Yorker, but if I had to give up one magazine, it would not be New Scientist.

I have been a subscriber to New Scientist since 1964 when I received a subscription as a 16th birthday gift. It is still the best general science publication available in English and as a weekly they break a lot of news now that quality daily newspapers have been gutted of quality reporters. This app would be fine if I could adjust the text size and font. I have written to the publication several times since this app was released. Once this app has how it handles text size and font selection I will be glad to change this rating to 5 star

Articles are understandable and interesting. I learn something new either each read. I love being able to play articles when I can’t read them (such as when I’m driving).

I advised this magazine to my students for increasing their reading abilities. The first thing they say is ‘ it is not affordable for us.’ I kindly request the sales department to enable us (teachers) to add up to 5 students for a single purchase, so that I could help them read. Thanks

I do not have the subscription. That being said I make sure I limit the number of articles I actually go into every month bc you are only allowed 3. For the past 4 months I have not been allowed to read ANY OF THE ARTICLES. I go into read an article I am genuinely interested in and I automatically get closed out saying I need to buy the subscription . I should have 3 free articles every month per user agreement. I literally cannot access any articles and because of this am continually missing out on important information I would like to learn. Fix this or get back to me cuz this is highly frustrating.

This is one of my favorite journals, so much so that I subscribe to the hard copy as well as online. Some years ago I discontinued owing to hassles related to logging in. I renewed here recently and — surprise — the same problem occurred again! The problem is that they have two email addresses for me and somehow the system chokes. This time around I think their *excellent* support has resolved the issue. We shall see. This is a popular magazine filled with articles suitable for laypersons and intelligent high school kids. I have a doctoral degree, but not in quantum physics or anthropology or math or other complex fields. Their writers are also excellent, with compelling accounts related to big ideas and world-changing science. They do their homework well. The magazine is thin, not like the old days when such publications were hefty. But if you love hands on, the high price is worth it. If you are on Apple News you can access it there as well. It’s also a WEEKLY publication, which is wonderful. I am a behavioral science guy, and the articles in my vast field are very well done and valuable. It easily earns five stars. This is not an academic science journal. It’s a popular magazine. Therein lies the greatness. It’s the science source for the rest of us.
