Today, I have a new app to share with you called Next Issue Canada. It has been featured on CBC.ca and TECHVIBES.
This app is a monthly subscription (as low as 9.99 per month) that allows you access to over 100 popular magazines all in one place.
If one of your 2014 goals is to reduce your paper clutter, this app is definitely for you. I love reading magazines, but I always feel like I need to keep them and I never know where to put them when I haven’t finished reading one. With Next Issue Canada, they stay on my iPad and I always know where to find them (because I have two special places that I put my iPad so I never lose it!).
The app is very easy to navigate:
Right away after signing up (for a 30 day free trial) and downloading the app, I subscribed to my favourite magazines:
I quickly scanned through the contents of each of my favourite magazines and here were the articles that I found very interesting (amongst many):
Today’s Parent – January 2014
“Guilty as Charged” – Is using tablets, smartphones and technology considered to be lazy parenting or teaching children the with the tools of the future?
I love Today’s Parent magazine as I find there are relevant articles from pregnancy all the way up through school aged children. There is always useful information shared and some great ideas as well in each issue.
Real Simple – February 2014
“Walk This Way” – A step-by-step guide to the simplest fitness plan ever, getting out of the house and walking.
Chatelaine 2014 – February 2014
“Not So Guilty Pleasures” – Some traditional comfort foods get a healthy makeover from Faux-Fried Chicken to Buttermilk Cornbread Waffles.
I love Chatelaine! I have for years. My favourite part of this magazine are their recipes.
Shutterbug – February 2014
“Digital Photography Q&A” – A chance for readers to ask their digital photography quesitons and have them answered by David Brooks.
All Recipes – December 2013/January 2014
“Don’t Miss a Minute” – A variety of make ahead Breakfast Casseroles with sweet and savory options to choose from.
Parents – January 2014
“For the Fun of It” – An article sharing some easy and fun art ideas for children.

Great looking app, Amanda! Love the selection and the price is right considering you’d pay way more than $9.99 to read all those great magazines off the newsstand. Love the free trial too. Thanks for the info!
The free trial is a great way to try it out to see if you feel like it is worth the $ to you for sure 🙂 The selection is PERFECT for me! Nothing is missing.
I read your post and downloaded the app and signed up! I found out I can open my subscription on up to 5 tablets. So between me, my husband and my dad – we`ll be doing a TON of reading. I enjoy reading your blog!
There are a lot of magazines here that i would not normally buy, but would read them if they were in a doctor’s waiting room. Having them all at my fingertips on my iPad is intriguing.
AWESOME! So glad I could share something with you that you can share with your whole family!
I love this app and the price is good considering you buy one for $799 and up here in Canada. And you are right we end up donating ours to the Library but it’s a waste of paper. Nowadays with technology having that recipe you want or article you want at your fingertips is great!
This app is amazing! Right now I have a stack of 10 mags on my counter that I need to read! ITs a pain because who wants a) 10 mags on your counter and b) to lug those around!!! If I used this app, I could have all my mags at the touch of my finger where ever I was!! I probably wouldn’t be 10 mths behind! lol
Amanda your post is very timely! I recently purchased the new issue of Canadian Living and after browsing it thought that it would be great to have a subscription. I do think having the Next Issue app would make a whole lot more sense though, for more then one reason. I am heading there right now. Thank you!

Great tip! Thanks for sharing 🙂
Stay hydrated!
Drink lots of water to keep yourself hydrate. On a personal note, stay away from those energy drinks.
i learned they have TRX team training – I would love to try this!
Oh yes, those energy drinks are so high in the icky kind of sugar, right?!
YES!
I’m glad you learned something new!
Don’t stretch cold muscles. Warm up before stretching or save the stretch till after the workout.
I learned where the Good Life Fitness is located in my city by visiting their website.
Good Life has some women-only clubs and I like that.
Eat a high protein meal before a workout!
Take the stairs instead of the elevator to get a mini-workout!
If taking the bus, plan to get off the bus a stop or two before your destination.
walk more
I learned a lot of people have irrealistic goals
I learned it helps to eat a high protein meal before a workout.
Grab a friend to workout to help each other get motivated!
i love their Asics Gel Neo 33 Running Shoes Mens orange ones are so cool
This app is so great! I love the idea of being able to browse magazines without carrying physical magazines around.
