HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (15 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

Price and subscription42%

5 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ But whatever part-time, untrained editor is in charge of spelling, captions, and making sure the right photos in the right place needs to be replaced with a full time, paid digital error.
★★★★★ Pricey subscription, though.
★★★★★ Subscription and authenticating process more complicated than it should be.
Bugs, things not working33%

4 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ No matter how good the content, if you cant access it, it's worthless. When enquiring to Car, I am told to complain to Apple. There is no facility to do so. Not helpful.

App doesn’t work - can’t access content

No matter how good the content, if you cant access it, it’s worthless. When enquiring to Car, I am told to complain to Apple. There is no facility to do so. Not helpful.

Car for ever

Simply the best automobile magazine on the planet. Great writers and the lead on the most exciting cars and trends. Although I live in the US I feel like I’m included. Georg Kacher is my favorite writer. Makes me feel like I’m in the passenger seat. Keep it going.

Online mag is good but is no substitute for the paper issues !!!!!

★★★★★May 27, 2020
CAR has the presentation of auto word.

This magazine is very special as to its presentation and facts.

★★★★★Mar 15, 2020
Great magazine, terrible app

Each time the screen locks the app closes and you have to go all the way from choosing to opening the magazine you were reading, to going to the article you were reading. It’s tiresome and frustrating.
