### 5/5 — Superb layout

*2026-06-20*

Well done, Golf Digest!  It’s one of the easiest online magazines to navigate, & the content is top notch.

### 1/5 — Horrible customer service

*2025-11-23, version 6.0*

I’m not a review guy, but I’ve had it. I purchased the digital and hard copy subscription in August. Yet to receive a hard copy. I have emailed three times now. With no response.

### 1/5 — One of the worst apps I’ve ever used

*2025-10-18, version 6.0*

I think they just stopped supporting it. The only purpose here is to search and the search bar is broke.

### 1/5 — Can’t unsub from newsletters

*2025-09-21, version 6.0*

No matter how many time I try to unsubscribe, contact the service desk email, or report the emails as spam, I continue every day getting newsletters. Terrible app interface and customer service.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2025-05-10, version 6.0*

Digital search feature doesn’t work and they do not respond to emails. Do not waste your money.

### 5/5 — love it

*2025-01-23, version 5.7.11*

Works well on a cellphone but for the best results use a tablet ! i love that you can download the issues so you can still read it on the go !

### 2/5 — Well written, comprehensive golf magazine. Great instruction articles.

*2024-12-03, version 5.7.11*

I love every issue.

### 1/5 — Golf Digest

*2024-10-16, version 5.7.11*

There is no customer support. No reply to emails. No information on webinars until it is too late to register . No assistance if password is not accepted, although entered correctly.

### 5/5 — Videos

*2024-07-07*

I have yet to find the video section of the app but it would be nice to have access to that content aswell

### 1/5 — Cannot use my digital content

*2024-05-19*

I have had a subscription for years. All of a sudden my subscription is not recognized on my iPad. I have sent numerous emails asking for help.  
I always get the computer generated response, we have received your email and will get back to you as soon as possible.

I have not gotten a response in four months.  Additionally, when you call golf digest to discuss, the technical department cannot be reached by phone. You talk to the customer service representative and they tell you they cannot help you. Please send an email to technical support.
Has to be the worst customer service in the world. Basically the technical support department operates with impunity.
