Not thrilled…
The TOS app was fantastic before the latest update. Open the app, and there were all of the previous issues from current to years’ past. This latest update leaves a lot to be desired though. I downloaded the app to be able to read and share articles from the magazine with ease. I have no desire to read the Homeschooling With Heart blog through the app, or go to Schoolhouse Teachers through it. If you want those to be apps, then great! Spend the money to have them developed into well-run apps. Don’t try to save money by combining everything into one app, because it doesn’t work.

Great inspiration on the Go!
I have enjoyed the magazines for over 10 years. The app makes it convenient to access articles from anywhere. I really like the ability to go through not only current releases, but previous ones as well. The search and bookmark features are also helpful!
Great app!
I love being able to read the magazine on the app! It’s smoother than trying to do it in my browser.
Love the app, love the magazine
TOS has been a help in my homeschool journey from even before I pulled my kids out of public school. I look forward to the Christian worldview articles, and exploring the ads for products I want to try with my kids. They live by their motto that has been stated on the cover since their very first magazine. Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

I love this app!
It's awesome to have this wonderful magazine at your fingertips. This app works great, is visually clean and bright, the fonts and texts are a good size, and best of all, it's free! One of my favorite reads!!
Encouraging homeschool tool
I love this app. I used to subscribe to the magazine and now I can read the articles on my app. It's so convenient and easy to use. The articles are encouraging and uplifting. Thank you so much for providing this wonderful app for Christian homeschooling families.
Everything you need for homeschool help in one place
I find it comforting to be able to turn to this magazine for the answers I need to homeschooling issues and research. And I love the fact that it's a Christian community. I found them on Facebook originally and love the help readers get to questions posed concerning homeschooling or even the possibility of homeschooling.

Ad-supported Christian dogma
This magazine is jam packed with ads and Christian dogma on almost every page. The abundance of ads might be forgivable if the content was not so utterly religious in nature. Secularists will stay far away.
I want to love it, but it's frustrating
Great magazine, great concept, great content, but this app is buggy and frustrating. You can only download one issue at a time and if for whatever reason you have to walk away in the middle of an article or issue it will not hold your place. You have to come back and figure out which issue, what article and re download. I was super excited about it, too. Please fix it!

Highly recommended!
This is such a great magazine! It's wonderful to be able to read wherever I'm at. Thank you!
no more off-line reading
As the title says..I can no longer read the downloaded magazines unless I am connected to the internet. Not good!
Great app!
Lots of great articles and information! Thank you for this great Homeschool resource!
Wish it worked
I first downloaded this app a year ago. I could never get it to work. It wouldn't download a single issue. I saw it again and thought I would give it another try ...because it is a good magazine.
I have now spent three days trying to get it to work. I still can't own load a single issue. The app continually crashes, partially downloads and won't turn a page. I have delegated the app and reloaded it, I have shut down the iPad and restarted it. I would really like for this app to function, but it doesn't.

Encouraging
I've been a subscriber for many years. Always very encouraging to read, lots of ideas.
One of my favorite apps!
Love being able to read and enjoy the articles from this magazine right one my phone!
Excellent
I have read this magazine for years and now it is free and easy to get with this app or online. I have to admit that I do miss the paper copy, but this is a great app. It works well and have found it easy to use.
Fantastic App
Such generosity making so much info available in a wonderfully user friendly format for FREE - thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Muso_Sam's wife :)
Lost downloads with update
I subscribed to this magazine for a few years before it went digital and have really enjoyed it.
I really like the off-line reading option.
FYI: With this update I lost the magazines I had already downloaded onto the iPad. Fortunately the bookmarks were saved so I didn't have to reconstruct them and I was on a wifi network when I first opened the app to read so re-downloading was easy. (this was the reason for losing a star. The content is great.)
