### 4/5 — This magazine is good, but app has some bugs!

*2025-07-15*

Sometimes I can see reviews about the app just crashes and freezes and needs to be fixed! BTW Good cooking magazine

### 1/5 — Disappearing purchases

*2025-05-02, version 4.0*

Will I be able to access my purchases/ past editions after the app is closed down?

### 1/5 — Awful

*2024-02-22, version 3.0*

I love Delicious Magazine but hate this app.  I live outside Australia so can’t get print edition.  App is a joke and useless subscription because I can’t access my subscription.  Have deleted app and reinstalled.  Shows my previous downloads but won’t open them.

### 1/5 — Great magazine, terrible app

*2023-12-24*

I love Delicious magazine, but the app needs some serious work. It takes several restarts to get the app to load anything, and bookmarks don’t load at all. Would love to see the team improve this, as it is making my digital subscription worthless.

### 5/5 — Reliability and ontime issues

*2023-12-07, version 3.0*

Many thanks for your reliable delivery of the emag… always great to get reading and prepare menus!

### 1/5 — Won’t open

*2023-11-17, version 3.0*

I’ve been using this app for years but I haven’t been able to open it for the last few months. In Canada, on the latest iOS.

### 5/5 — Delicious Australia Magazine

*2023-10-23, version 3.0*

The best photos ever and I love the recipes they provide us with

### 1/5 — Delicious but hard to navigate

*2023-01-03, version 2.4*

Love the recipes and articles but find the magazine frustrating. In other mags I can go from the index straight to the recipe.

I find it frustrating.

### 5/5 — A great Publication

*2021-01-21, version 2.4*

The magazine is not only such a professional product but also atheisticly appealing.  There are so many great recipes.

### 3/5 — Could be more interactive

*2020-10-25*

I enjoy being able to access Delicious content digitally, but searching for recipes in the app could be far easier. The only way to ‘save’ recipes is to bookmark pages but the bookmark previews give you little indication of what’s on the page. At the very least, being able to rename saved bookmarks would be helpful, or an interactive index with links to each recipe in the edition. It’s just not all the user-friendly in its current state.
