The Decanter Premium App

What devices work with the app?
The minimum OS requirements are the following:
– Apple iOS 14
– Android 8.0 (Oreo)

When and why do I sometimes leave the app?
Occasionally you might find yourself leaving the app after clicking on a link, this is because the link is navigating to non-Premium content that is only available outside of the app.

Why can’t I view Premium content on the app?
Please ensure you have purchased the web & app subscription or a subscription that includes access to the app. If you have the standard Digital Subscription you will not have access to the app and will need to upgrade in “MY ACCOUNT” > Decanter Premium Subscription > My Subscriptions, or you may contact us via the email address at the bottom of the page.
