### 5/5 — Useful

*2021-03-10*

Along with jumpy army of books and other magazines this is a useful addition. App seems to work okay.

### 1/5 — Grow your own

*2020-02-27*

Magazine is a decent read but app is a disaster. Will definitely delete and cancel subscription as company is very poor and disorganised. There are many other gardening magazines to read!

### 1/5 — Ripped off

*2019-03-13*

Stop before you download this app I was just charged £12.98 for a magazine that was advertised as £4.99 per issue. I’ve checked and not ordered two issues or anything daft like that. There’s a bug, awaiting developer feedback.

### 5/5 — Excellent magazine

*2017-11-05*

Since the death of Organic Gardening magazine, we in the US have no magazine dedicated to those of us who are “down in the dirt” gardeners.  Grow Your Own fills this niche very nicely - offering practical gardening advice in an entertaining format.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2016-06-03*

This is a great little app for my iPhone.  Handy being able to zoom in on the articles and I use when I'm on the allotment as well.

### 5/5 — Fantastic magazine and App

*2016-05-18*

Great magazine and the app is easy to navigate. Just wish subscribers to the electronic version could still get the free seeds!

### 5/5 — Great Magazine.

*2016-03-06*

Great Magazine.

### 4/5 — All round good magazine

*2015-06-13*

A good magazine. Some good tips and reminders for the growing season ahead.

### 1/5 — Robbery

*2014-03-25*

Would be good if it would allow you to download the mags you've paid for after the update then ignore your emails to sort it. Disgrace

### 1/5 — Not an app

*2014-03-24*

It's just a way of buying issues or subscribing. It has no actual content.
