### 1/5 — Poor image resolution

*2026-06-22*

I have subscribed for years. Suddenly, in the past few issues, the quality for most pictures/images has declined - a bit fuzzy. I use an iPad Pro. I may not renew if this is not fixed.

### 1/5 — App no longer supported

*2021-02-25*

Hello, I wanted to let people know before they download this app that House & Home customer service informed me that the IOS app is no longer supported. I can no longer access magazine issues which I previously purchased. I am very disappointed.

### 5/5 — Exclusivity

*2020-09-07*

October 2020 magazine in store before on line, what about exclusivity of subscription.

### 5/5 — Great house and home tips

*2020-04-26*

Enjoy this magazine so much.  Good articles with authors from different areas of home life from gardening to decorating.   Great all around home interests magazine!

### 1/5 — doesn’t work

*2020-04-07*

unable to open the magazines.

### 1/5 — Too long

*2020-04-05, version 9.0*

Why when I pay for annual digital subscription, am I the last to get a magazine copy.  It is already on supermarket shelves but I’m still waiting!
I will NOT be renewing my subscription.

### 1/5 — No landscaping viewing

*2019-11-16, version 8.0*

I’m due to renew but will decline because since the last 2 issues, and after a developer’s upgrade, you cannot view the magazine in a landscape option with the 2 consecutive pages opened las if you’re holding the magazine in your hand. It’s just become like a regular PDF file

### 1/5 — What happened to the interactivity

*2019-01-22, version 7.0.7*

Had this app for the past 4 years. Enjoyed it due to the interactivity of the online magazine. 

Since it has been updated, it’s basically a PDF version of the physical magazine. Also, I’ve lost all my downloads/ previous purchase starting February 2018. I am not willing to pay $3.99 for each magazine download that i already paid for. 

Very disappointing and will be unsubscribing.

### 4/5 — Great fix

*2019-01-19*

Thank you for the fix on the updated app. I can view my previous purchases. Quality much better.

### 5/5 — Great Magazine and App

*2018-09-21*

I bought this magazine in Canada on my way home to California. The articles show high quality decor but also lots of ideas for the average home. One of the better decorating magazines I’ve found. Some of the reviews say there are problems with the app but they are old. I find no problems and like the videos. It works well.
