### 2/5 — No text search and plays loud music upon opening

*2023-04-10*

I thought I’d be able to bookmark some of the recipes I had found on their website in the app. However, I don’t see any easy way to do this, and was startled to hear loud music playing as soon as the app opened. Apparently the video feed starts automatically overall good recipes with little ad content, but was not what I was looking for.

### 2/5 — Make sure your volume is down

*2023-03-31*

Is there really a point to having the annoying music playing when I open the app? I’ve been embarrassed when opening the app several times by how loud the music is. Please make it go away

### 2/5 — Hard to search for specifics.

*2023-03-10*

I’ve always enjoyed taste of home, but this app is not very user-friendly. If you want to search for a specific kind of recipe, like cooking asparagus, in the oven, there’s no way to do that.

### 2/5 — App layout is not easy to navigate

*2023-01-18, version 14.856*

I really want to love this app but it’s not easy to navigate. There’s no tool bar to search recipes. Access to my saved recipes is not convenient. It’s not an organized easy to access app. I love the recipes. I don’t love the app :(.

### 2/5 — Unable to reset password

*2022-12-23, version 14.856*

Want to sign in keep getting conct provider

### 2/5 — Searching

*2022-11-24, version 14.856*

I’m wanting to search for different kinds of foods I.e. salads. So it’s not as user friendly like I hoped.

### 2/5 — Not intuitive, to random

*2022-11-04, version 14.856*

I was hoping for an app that I could easily search for recipes and to be able to save favorites and print out for convenience sake. This is more like a magazine…. Here’s the content, now read it. Not what I was looking for at all.

### 2/5 — Not what I expected

*2022-10-30, version 14.856*

The app has great recipes in it, unfortunately it does not have a search to be able to look up specific recipes. This is a huge problem I don’t like having to scroll through everything to try and find homemade bread recipes for instants. Very limited app.

### 1/5 — No search bar

*2022-10-30, version 14.856*

I don’t have time to window shop recipes. Wish it had a search option! Deleted

### 1/5 — Search

*2022-10-14, version 14.850*

There are no search options. Difficult to quickly find what you need.

### 1/5 — Where are the recipes?

*2022-09-18, version 14.830*

I saw many recipes on Instagram that I wanted to save or print but it never let me because I wasn’t logged in.  So I created an account, downloaded the app and I now I can’t find the recipes… only videos.  There is no search to look for the recipes you saw on Instagram.  I spent 1/2 hour trying to figure this out and I’m ready to give out.  I don’t know how much I paid for the app and if I can get out of it.  I am very dissatisfied.

### 1/5 — Taste of Home

*2022-09-13, version 14.830*

Nowhere can you search for a recipe!

### 1/5 — NO SEARCH?

*2022-08-27, version 14.830*

Seriously.  This app is a joke, don't even waste time downloading.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Search option

*2023-03-26*

I read the only review. Downloaded the app. Couldn’t find the spy glass to enter a search. Double clicked too right corner & the search space appeared. Did a search for Chicken Pot Pie & the selection was 5 videos for boneless, skinless chicken breast. Tried the search again, different wording, poor results. 
I love Taste of Home disappointed in the app.

### 1/5 — What’s wrong with using text?

*2023-03-08*

I downloaded the app and deleted it within the hour. I love the website, but the app is all videos. Like the other reviewer said, I found a list of recipes, but they’re all pictures. Where is the name of the recipe? Why is everything picture or video? Yes, they have their place, but I want to know what recipe I’m looking at or skim the recipe to determine if I want to make it instead of devote time to a video. Also, why is this video just blasting at me the second I open the app? I’d also love to be able to log in with my website credentials, but that doesn’t work? Bottom line: Website is great, app is awful.

### 1/5 — No Stars

*2023-02-19, version 14.856*

This app is full of videos on how to make a recipe.  What is does not have are actual recipes, with ingredient and amounts listed.  How is one supposed to follow a video how to without the amounts of ingredients listed?

And, as many have mentioned, there is no search box available.

There is no reference to their magazine issues either.  This app is a total joke.

### 1/5 — Not a user friendly sight at all.

*2023-02-02, version 14.856*

Can’t find a search for particular recipes. No nutrition on the recipes I did look at! Just wasn’t happy at all with this sight!!

### 1/5 — Taste Of Home app

*2023-01-02, version 14.856*

Cannot find my favorites section. Very cumbersome app.

### 1/5 — Taste of home, more like taste of rotten eggs

*2022-12-27, version 14.856*

There’s no way to search for the name of a recipe. If you have an account on the website, like I have for years, and have several folders with saved recipes, they aren’t transferred to the app. You have to start all over again. All I see are videos. What about the list of ingredients? What about the cooking directions? How about the information like serving size, nutritional information and cooking times? Maybe I’m missing something but this app is a total bust!!

### 1/5 — No option to search

*2022-11-27, version 14.856*

Why can’t you search for an ingredient?  It is impossible to find a recipe without paging through a ton of other things.  Pictures also don’t give you what the dish is.  I will be deleting this app.

### 1/5 — Taste of Home Tv app

*2022-11-22, version 14.856*

Horrible……….couldn’t find the speaker button to turn off the terrible music and no “Search” button!  I’m going to delete it after I send this message!  Had to give it one star because there was not a “zero”option!

### 1/5 — Cannot search for recipes.

*2022-11-22, version 14.856*

Do not like the fact that there is no capacity to search for a recipe.

### 1/5 — Stupid

*2022-11-10, version 14.856*

Absolutely awful app. How do you search for something?  Deleting now.

So many of the recipes are easy to do.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2023-02-09, version 14.856*

Great app
Great recipes

### 5/5 — So far so good!

*2022-04-22, version 14.810*

Nice to see pictures of the recipes as you go along. Homesteading Diva

### 3/5 — Where is the search option?

*2023-02-27*

Not easy to search

### 3/5 — Search

*2023-01-22, version 14.856*

Unable to search specific recipes

### 3/5 — Where are they?

*2022-11-11, version 14.856*

I would like to be able to look up specific recipes.

### 3/5 — Just downloaded app

*2022-11-11, version 14.856*

I love the website so I found the app. How the heck can I search for a recipe? So far I can only scroll through and only get videos of recipes being made. I will keep trying cause I love the idea of the app.

Update:   Found the search.  Looked at the screenshots and just took a guess and clicked to the right where picture indicated the search magnifying glass.  It worked.  Maybe make it a different color.   At least for iOS?

### 3/5 — Food

*2022-06-27, version 14.830*

I’m looking for recipes I’ve seen online in the advertising but there’s no search available

### 3/5 — Search Button Missing

*2022-06-21, version 14.812*

I’m trying to find a particular recipe and don’t see a search button. Time consuming looking through all the recipes in each category.

### 2/5 — Not great

*2023-05-16*

The app doesn’t allow you to search for recipes or save the recipes like you can in your web account.  The only reason I wanted the app was for easy access to recipes.
