Release date is tmw which is when the digital copies go up. Subscriber copies accidentally went out early. There's a thread a couple of days ago with explanation.

No, looked through it on pageflip, and for the first time put it on my kindle.

😳 must not rant on the internet, I look an ignorant fool, sorry folks.

It was there in pocket mags a minute ago. I downloaded it, got distracted, came back to it and issue 85 has gone from pocket mags. Rubbish.

Really sorry about this. We've been badly let down by our app provider. The issue was full of bugs and glitches and some content was missing so I told the provider to take it out of newsstand earlier tonight and get it fixed. We are really gutted as we've worked really hard to make this issue the best digital issue yet and to see it badly presented due to app problems is hugely frustrating. I've been told that an update to our app now needs to happen and the timeline for publication us now Monday/Tuesday.

You know... Corporate apologies and polite explanations aside.... Actually I'm bloody ****ing furious. Today was the last day of my honeymoon and I've had to deal with this and I've been told it was all down to a 'miscommunication' with a developer.

Thank **** for that. Thought I was loosing it there and had imagined downloading last night. Was enjoying it and went to carry on reading just and no trace.

Pity about the hassles. Not been all that impressed with PocketMags. Lots of problems throughout. I wish now I had spent my money on the Premier account instead of rushing into a sub renewal with Pocketmags to.

Best of luck getting it sorted and hope you get back to honeymooning for the rest of weekend. Mind you heard there's a storm a brewing. You might not make it into work tomorrow... Nudge nudge!

Anybody else still waiting? It sounds like everybody's has arrived early, but I still haven't received a printed copy.

The paper copy arrived last week. Just tried Pocketmags and it appears to have downloaded but when you scroll it disappears and dumps you out of Pocketmags.
