Pros and cons of Better Homes and Gardens app for iPhone and iPad

Better Homes and Gardens app good for

This is my most beloved magazine. There is no such magazine available here in Germany. I am thrilled to be able to read every issue of it from now on.=)
This is a fantastic magazine. They gave done a great job on this application.
This is really well done. The content has been formatted to take advantage of the iPad, it is not just a PDF of the printed magazine. I would have given it 5 stars if I could print or otherwise save recipes for later use. You can "share" them, but you have to sign up for an account, or sign in through Facebook or other account.
I hardly ever review but Im so impressed with how BHG have run with the concept of their mag on the iPad I just had to comment! Its the best one on the iPad so far that Ive seen. They erased everything they knew about setting up their mag and started fresh with the iPad in mind. there are all sorts of buttons to play with and clever ideas working with the iPads abilities. Plus its landscape oriented which I much prefer. Keep up the great work!!!
I enjoy using this app to view my paid Better Homes & Gardens subscription. Each month, there is at least one interactive portion of the on-line magazine that is associated with either a room ( you can change wall colour, drapery colour, pillow fabrics etc) or with a planting guide/pot where you have a selection of flowers/shrubbery that can be either identified or mixed and matched (I planted my summer pots using an interactive article this spring:) There is so much to enjoy including recipies and interviews with some clever DIYer. I find the on-line viewing to be convenient for home and travel and I havent had any problems with crashing of the site. It makes sense for me.
Very good work ! Well done. Nice graphic, qood interactivity. Bhg is a guarantee of reliability

Some bad moments

I have two iPads in my family, but it is not possible to read the mag on both iPads. Downloading an issue on the second device, you will be chared again - even if you have a subscription. All preferences are set properly and proved correct, because other mags are working that way. There is no way to restore your already paied issues! That is very bad and fun is limited!
I was disappointed about app because you have to buy the magazine . All you see is the cover... I found it misleading .
Ive been corresponding back and forth with their customer support to try to determine why I can get access to the digital editions as a print subscriber and their assistance has been useless. I will not be renewing my subscription!
It was not FREE! It was definitely misleading. Now I cant even delete the darn app.
After weeks of communicating with their help people, and getting the same answers over and over, I gave up. Apple must have agreed that this app is trash, because they refunded my money.
Ok If you just want to receive one issue on a years subscription. Continuous aggravating endurance to receive subsequent issues. Not worth the time or money. However, the online mag is great - just impossible to access.
