I think you're right. They have to be set up on the phone.

I have a five as well, and wondered why I couldn't get my magazines 
things like that.
I felt as though I couldn't figure out how to run it.
Can someone share how to run the site?
I even went to help but wasn't able to set it up.
Do I need to go to magazines and set those up on the computerr then it 
transfers to the phone?
Thanks for any help.
I thought I had it all set up, but something didn't turn out rite?
