### 5/5 — Up to the minute

*2026-08-15*

Love the little articles on GH right up to date and so relevant. I’m addicted to the house cleaning and decluttering ones .The writers tap in to just what we are interested in right now . Great little reads for quiet moments and in the move.

### 5/5 — Gorgeous GH

*2026-03-19*

So loving GH in every format right now - they are nailing every aspect of my life beauty / home / recipes - thank you GH -

### 5/5 — Love the new look GH

*2026-01-04*

I’ve really started to get into the new look GH. It took me a few months but I think it’s brilliant. 

Thanks GH

### 3/5 — Good Housekeeping

*2025-08-22, version 6.22*

Much prefer the printed copy

### 4/5 — Not happy

*2025-05-05*

After paying for a special offer to access Good Housekeeping magazine I am frustrated how difficult to view the magazines I paid for . Very frustrating for a older reader

### 3/5 — Not the best

*2025-02-27*

The extra bits are good, eg the puzzles and recipes. But a new edition has just been released today and both Readly and Kindle have the latest but the actual GH app seems to still only show last month’s copy. So what exactly are we paying for?

### 1/5 — No Images when Off-line!

*2023-11-04*

Since April 2023 my digital subscription has been useless. There are no images when I try to read the downloaded copy when I am offline. I have a print + digital subscription so that when I’m travelling and have no access to the internet I am able to read the downloaded version using my digital subscription. It worked perfectly until I was on holiday in March when I discovered there were no pictures in my downloaded copy! I reported this to Hearst at the time and had monthly emails TO them requesting updates and providing screenshots to illustrate the problem I was having. A few weeks ago they told me they had no timeline to fix the issue. So I’m left in limbo with a useless digital subscription that I have paid good money for. In contrast my other magazine delivers its digital copies reliably!

### 2/5 — Good Housekeeping Digital

*2023-09-28*

I am disappointed in the digital Good Housekeeping.  The layout is boring ie one page can be miles long. It also takes ages to download, downloading each page as you read it instead of downloading the whole magazine at the same time.  Much preferred the Kindle Edition which unfortunately has now been discontinued.  Definitely more work is needed on the app to make it a more pleasurable experience to read.

### 1/5 — Inaccessible! Shame!

*2022-11-29*

As a blind person, I use VoiceOver on my iPhone to access content.

I can do almost anything that sighted people can do.

I can operate my central heating, I can access all my bank accounts, I can listen to any music I want, I can read books, and yet I can’t get past the first hurdle to read Good Housekeeping.

I go into the accounts page and it is completely inaccessible to screen readers.

I can’t input my details and I’m stuck. In this day and age for a company like this to be so I’m concerned about accessibility is quite shocking.

Not to say illegal!

### 1/5 — So frustrating!

*2022-09-28*

I have been subscribing for quite some time and the constant problems I have with magazines taking forever to download, then only part of the magazine has downloaded, usually the adverts. I have had to delete and reinstall the app multiple times because it’s requesting payment when I have already subscribed for multiple issues of the magazine. I’m so fed up with it, I’m not going to subscribe again. Such a shame. Sort this app out please!!!!!!!
