Thank you Jim .enjoyed reading it, was just thinking that the only thing it needed was page numbers and hey presto there they were but I haven't a clue how I got the preview pages with numbers along the bottom of the screen and couldn't replicate when I went back to finish reading the excellent magazine, can anyone tell me how to show that.
Tap the screen to bring up the pre-view. On Android though a tap and hold (long press) seems to be needed.

All working now Jim, thanks muchly. Don’t know what I did differently today. On iPhone and iPad.

just spent some time mooching, I like it. Took a while to remove the page banner at the bottom of the page, it covered the last paragraphs. No other issues, encountered. Well done you And all contributors.

Jim After skimming through the mag during testing, I’ve finally settled down to a ‘cover to cover’ read and thoroughly enjoyed it.... thank you for your and the contributors’ efforts. Looking forward to future issues.

Only slight downside for me, I thought from the testing conversations that someone was going to proofread the whole mag for typos/spellings etc, but still plenty evident. If only I had the time to offer !

Just read from cover to cover. Well done Jim. Spotted a few typos but that did not detract from the content.
Look forward to future copies.

The Android phone took three attempts yesterday, before being successful in downloading the App. However, despite following your advice above e rebooting Jim, and after almost ten attempts, nothing I do gets me the App on my Android tablet. I just keep getting.......................
There was a problem generating your subscription, please try again. :(

Cheers,

Jock. :)
Jim, I came downstairs this morning, tapped the screen to wake up the tablet, tapped the link on page one, and "Voila", straight to the App store, then installed and opened the App. (y)
I don't know why it wouldn't work for me yesterday, after repeated attempts. :(

My only problem on the tablet, is that I can only read the magazine in portrait view. I have the same problem with the Camper Contact, Metro Bank, and Search For Sites Apps, so it must be to do with the tablet itself, and not the App.

Cheers,

Jock. :)

The Campercontact app only works in portrait mode at the moment. I've read somewhere they might change it to work in landscape but this hadn't been done yet.

Really impressed. Hope we can get realistic, independent van reviews. The mags you can buy seem too dependent on advertising to give unbiased information.

Thanks John. :)
When I contacted the Dutch owners, they informed me that they had no intention to change the App to work in Landscape view. :(

Cheers,

I posted this on another thread in response to a Q re buying, but it probably would be better on here, so I replicate it below

Our launch mag has an article about buying from a motorhome show. click

I opened the laptop version but could not find a way to zoom in on the print which was difficult for me to read.

Did I miss something? I tried clicking left and right on the mouse.

For Android, try this - first DELETE any MHF app you have on your device. Then shut down and restart - IMPORTANT, if you don't do this it doesn't work.

Now download the MHF app - from Playstore seems to be okay. Note this doesn't download the mag.

Finally download from the link on Post 1 - it will probably take a short time depending on your device and connection. This should give you the free subscription.

I'm on Android 9, which was a little rebellious when we were first testing until Jim took a hammer to it(!), but it now appears to be working okay according to various posts and for me.

What TerryL said. Follow religiously.
Saw Jim today at the show, and he said the app team are working on getting Android to show in landscape.

This is an impressive "pilot" issue!

I read the articles on alarms and toilets and learned stuff in both.

Looking forward to reading the other articles and of course to the next issue!

You don't need to go to the App store. Just click on Jim's link in his first post above, and it'll take you to the correct location, then click on install. (y) No fees required.

Cheers,

Jock. :)

tried downloading via the app but worried because it says ‘in app purchases’
also can it be read off line in app.

I downloaded it via Yumpu and then saved in iBook.

So if you have downloaded the app, how do you get it without separately downloading outside the app or paying. Sorry cannot do with reading 6 pages of posts?
