### 3/5 — Forced advertisement

*2025-03-07, version 10.9*

App is good, does everything as advertised but every two taps it pulls up a “Leave a review” tab.

### 4/5 — It’s ok

*2025-02-09, version 10.9*

It’s ok but there should be some options for people who don’t eat that type of food such as kosher food

### 2/5 — Day 2 Using App

*2024-12-22, version 10.7*

My Yummly app has closed up shop so I was looking for an alternative. I’m trying to use this app but it errors when I try to put a recipe in favorites. My have to keep looking :(

### 4/5 — No guessing

*2024-12-09, version 10.7*

It makes menu planning pretty simple.  Put in your food restrictions if you have any, press a button and voila, recipe.

### 1/5 — Poor app

*2024-11-19, version 10.6*

Can’t save or like recipes search results are non existent

### 4/5 — Gordo’s Breakfast Casserolr

I love your magazine, we have a subscription and I enjoy the recipes.

Your Meal Planner lacks recipes that I’m interested in

### 1/5 — P

Want to keep my recipes and track ingredients required, which is not possible in this application.

### 2/5 — Recipes don’t match instructions

*2024-06-20, version 9.9*

This app is a good idea, however a lot of recipes I favorite, when I go to cook them and hit the start cooking button to take me to the instructions, it takes me to a website with a completely different recipe.

### 1/5 — Error message

*2026-06-01, version 11.2*

Going to delete the app because the continued “error” pop up makes the app unusable.

### 1/5 — Not Taste of Home

*2026-02-17, version 11.2*

This is not Taste of Home. can’t look anything up -all it says is "error". Misleading and junk app. Deleted.

### 1/5 — Difficult

*2025-11-23, version 11.1*

Difficult to navigate

### 1/5 — NOT “Taste of Home”. Misleading

*2025-09-28, version 10.9*

This app has no affiliation with taste of home . As soon as you download it, it shows as test of home. They are intentionally trying to make it look like they are somehow connected to the taste of Home. I deleted the app.

### 1/5 — Wondering

*2025-09-16, version 10.9*

I can’t pull up any recipes or click on a recipe it keeps saying error occurred try again

### 1/5 — Not useful

Keeps erroring out. Can’t get the app the search for recipes

### 1/5 — Food great . App stinks

*2025-08-09, version 10.9*

Love their recipes in general.  Tried the app. Can’t get past “ some Error has occurred “.

When I click on a recipe all I get is an error message.

### 1/5 — Recipe search

*2025-04-28, version 10.9*

I keep getting an error when I try searching for a recipe

### 1/5 — Not really Taste of Home

*2025-01-01, version 10.7*

I can’t really say this is a bad app because once I realized I was being mislead I deleted it. On your home page you’ll see it’s labeled as test of home. I don’t like being mislead and maybe it’s a great recipe app but I’ll never know
