I love this site and was excited to get the app. I got the app about a year ago or so and noticed immediately the app would crash whenever I tried to view saved articles. At first I thought the app was still getting figured out and didn’t mind it. But till today, the app STILL crashes to view saved articles. The fact this simple bug still hasn’t been fixed is beyond me. Fix this simple bug and this app would get 5 stars. I don’t understand how this hasn’t been resolved.Edit: this review was written almost a year ago and unfortunately it seems the app/site developers could care less about resolving an extremely inconvenient and frustrating bug. I recommend reading articles from this site as you get the best source of immediate scientific news and research updates but anybody that can reach out to the direct developers, please do and let them know about this unfortunate feature. In the app, trying to open my saved articles list causes the app to crash.
Hard to read on smaller mobile
A. T. rains
I just downloaded this app and can tell that I will love reading the articles, except they’re going to be a bit hard to read. The font of the titles in the list of stories is small, and there are dark blue fonted words throughout the stories that are completely illegible. I use “dark mode”, which may be a contributing factor.
Great Readings but…

I love the app’s reading material. I feel like I’m out making discoveries with the science community. The app,itself just seems crash often and the biggest reason I don’t use it as often. I would like to see maybe blogs and better notifications such as me wanting to see updates on discoveries or maybe just filtering for subjects on the cosmos!
Need to to fix bug with favorited articles
Jarquan
Let me start by saying this is my favorite app. It’s the only news I care to read since it isn’t loaded with political garbage and propaganda. However, every time I go to favorited articles I cannot scroll through the list to see the more recent articles I’ve favorited. The app crashes EVERY single time without fail. Not sure if it’s a scheme to make people pay for the full app but I’m very disappointed in the developers. Fix this simple bug and I would gladly rate 5/5 stars.
This release contains minor user interface improvements and bug fixes.
