Have wasted full years subscription. Am very annoyed and will not be downloading any more. No rating ### 1/5 — HMS *2012-02-14* Oh dear - I'm another one that didn't read the reviews first. Thank goodness I only signed up for one as a trial. ### 1/5 — Indian Edition *2012-02-10* Wish I'd read the reviews. Just realised this is the indian edition! Not happy that I've subscribed and wasted my money. ### 1/5 — Indian version *2012-02-08, version 1.0.1* Yes I was conned too. How many more will be? ### 1/5 — Misleading do not buy *2012-02-05* As previous, this is the Indian version and there is nothing in the description to state that. We should be offered a refund. I am very annoyed , ### 1/5 — Indian version *2012-01-31* Really would like a refund as it is by no means clear enough that it is Indian version! A con! ### 1/5 — LynR *2012-01-18* Agree with all the others. There is NOTHING to say it is the India Edition and it wastes our money and we should of been offered the English Edition for free ### 1/5 — A complete con! *2012-01-15* I bought this before I read the reviews... A complete con, it's the Indian version and was a complete waste of money! It shouldn't be allowed! ### 1/5 — What a con!! *2012-01-11* Stupidly I didn't read the reviews on here first and bought in good faith! Had no idea I was getting the Indian edition and nowhere was it clearly mentioned that this was the case! Rubbish and very disappointing! Thankfully I only bought one copy as a trial - I will not be purchasing again. A con and a rip off !! ### 1/5 — Schrott *2012-01-09* Wenn mit weiteren Kosten dann schreibt man das in die Beschreibung! ### 1/5 — Indian Edition WARNING! *2012-01-08* I subscribed to this for my wife. Nowhere does it say that this is the Indian edition. I feel we have been conned. DO NOT SUBSCRIBE UNLESS YOU WANT THE INDIAN VERSION. ### 1/5 — Ideal home India edition *2012-01-06* Bought this in good faith but it is not the UK edition ....wasted my money. Why did apple allow this as it was not clearly indicated. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ideal Home and Garden *2015-02-28* Don't get sucked in by this app. It only applies to you if you you plan to move to India. It has no relevance to UK and when you realise you thought you were getting a UK version, there is no chance of a refund. ### 1/5 — INDIAN???? *2014-03-26* I bought this assuming it was a UK magazine...but boy was I wrong! It's an Indian edition and so completely useless. All the stores listed and in I did and the style is very different to anything I am used to in Europe. A total waste of money. They should make it clearer that this is Indian...the US editions say so in the title. I would very much like a refund! ### 1/5 — WARNING! INDIAN EDITIONS! *2013-10-26* Yep! Like everyone else who've left reviews, I also fell victim to this magazine subscription! A whole years worth of 'useless' magazine issues! If you're in India, fine - If in UK - buyer beware! Useless to UK market - decor taste also too far removed from UK or 'Euro' taste to even make this an interesting browse. Doubly annoyed that I have to give even a one star rating, in order to warn others. Overwhelming Con! In my book, this is nothing less than Fraud, they must be laughing all the to the bank! :-( ### 1/5 — Con! Don't buy! *2012-11-09* This looks like UK version but its NOT! It's the India version! Saw it after subscribed. I was told that I could turn off the auto-renewal in the app settings but I did NOT find any! This is how they con people and rip you off! Don't buy! Apple store should really take this app off the shelf!!! ### 1/5 — Oh *2012-05-21* Didn,t read the small print !!! This is the version for India ### 1/5 — Ms *2012-05-04, version 1.0.1* Yup, I've been conned too! Bought a whole years subcription! ### 1/5 — Not Ideal *2012-05-04, version 1.0.1* I got caught too - it looks just like the UK version from the cover. big con! ### 1/5 — Total waste of money! *2012-04-14* Why clearly con your customers with this useless magazine!! ### 1/5 — Not UK Version *2012-04-11* To be fair the content itself might be really good but the fact there is nothing to inform you itself the India version and therefore useless is not fair (unless you are planning to move to India). ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2012-04-03* Now I am fully informed on where to buy a sofa in New Delhi, how about sending us all a copy of the UK edition free of charge?? I'll await your response. Ws ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Bookmark feature *2015-07-10* The bookmark feature is very convenient for me to keep a track ... ### 5/5 — Reading revolutionized *2015-07-07* Great image quality of the magazine and futuristic design. The app is spectacular. ### 5/5 — Portability *2015-07-06* It is very good that the magazine can be read on any number of devices through restoring the purchases. ### 5/5 — Suits the purpose *2015-07-02* This magazine app is what I preferred to be like and I'm satisfied with the reader. Great !! ### 5/5 — Standard and smooth *2015-06-30* Being an architect, I have been reading on this app for a very long time. The app design very well meets the current standards and the interface is very good. ### 3/5 — Bugs! *2012-04-11* While I'm happy to pay for the magazine, the new issues won't load. Every time I try to open the latest issue it only shows the February issue. Kind of frustrating to pay for something I can't see. ### 2/5 — Indian version :( *2012-05-11* Thought this was the British version of Ideal Home and subscribed. Alas, no. My fault for not reading the description properly but not really into Indian furnishings. Wasted $12.99 as a result. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
