BBC Good Food Magazine App Reviews

Waited forever

My favorite food magazine as a brilliantly designed app. Yay!

Love Good Food

This is my favorite magazine and I would have given you five stars but the March 2011 copy will not open. Other than that I like buying them as they are now.

This app does not work

Paid for current issue and after 10 tries at opening it, gave up. Continuously crashes. Cover art appears and then the app spontaneously closes.

Love it

Great app and excellent recipes.

Great mag

One of the best cooking magazines out there! Ive bought it at full cover price on the newsstand for years. Just something about the way they presented all.

Beautiful and inspiring

So many recipes...so little advertisements

Smart packaging of content

Really well done! More than a digital rendering of the magazine, the Good Food app makes good use of technology. Love the way pictures and related recipes are bundled, allowing the pictures to really pop.

Amazing

I love Good Food magazine. It gives you everything you need in the app.

App

I love the magazine and have subscribed for the last two years.I am somewhat frustrated with the app it never allows me in straight away.It takes like 10mins of figuring out how to get my purchased monthly magazine up.....can we make it a little easier or at least give some guidelines.? Thank You.

Good Resource

Recipes are easy to complete and results are consistent. Will continue to review and prepare some really good products.

Great Food!

Since I cant subscribe to the magazine in the States, this is the next best thing, and less than half the newsstand price without the ads! Great content, wonderful recipes! A keeper.

Have a good appetite this is the magazine for you

The recipes in this Magazine are out of this world. Easy-to-follow. Worth the investment

Used to love this

For two years, I have loved using the BBC good food electronic subscription. This week, theyve ruined it. I used to be able to search by keyword like "salmon" or "barley" and get all the recipes using that ingredient. There is no search capability. I also used to have categories for bookmarks so I would bookmark all the recipes I liked and then move them in and out of a category called "this week", quickly finding the 3 or 4 I intended to cook in the near future. Gave the app an extra star because the new look and iPhone support are ok.

Do not waste your time

Having a printed subscription is still the way to go. There is a serious downside to the app. There is no way to print directly from the app. There is no way to backup the issues you access to your computer. If you change iPad or upgrade your iPad you need to download all the issues again. That is assuming you can download them again. Downloads are extremely slow. You must tell it to download each issue because there is no download queue. What is the sense of the "restore previous purchased issues" when it will not and can not do that? They do not understand "Restore Previous Purchases". There are missing issues. Most of the embedded videos are broken. This new version does not have the same functionality that the previous version had. This is a cookbook and not a magazine. This is not what I purchase back in 2011, 2012 and 2013. There is no customer support.

...

I dont even have this app and it keeps telling me to update it.

Latest issues dont appear.

Despite my subscription and having the latest version of this app and iOS, the latest issues of the magazine are not available within the app. Customer service merely states that they should appear, but cannot help me beyond that. The content is good. I do still access to my back issues, but I PAID for the next year. Very disappointing.
