Ratings and Reviews
Nerdish opens windows to view the world differently
Topics and knowledge in bite size pieces that give one insight they may or may not have been exposed to previously. If your seeing a lot of familiar topics and nothing new is stimulating your quest for knowledge there is hope in Nerdish as one can give feedback at the end of the bite size reading topic to guide the topics and skill level Nerdish is suggesting for your reading topics. There is so much to choose from suggested daily and alternating each time one opens the app. Try it you might learn something and if nothing else you’ll learn how to delete an app.
Great idea, articles could use better editing
This is a great idea - spending 10 minutes or so learning some interesting new things is a better way to start the morning than scrolling through social media! The editing is lacking for a lot of articles though, and I don’t know how many writers you have, but some of them are not good - amateurish writing, poor grammar, etc. I realize it has to be a lot of work putting out new content daily, but I’d just as soon work my way through the existing articles and wait for better written material. But overall, the material is very interesting, and I learn a little something new every day!
Suggestion: add a “needs proofreading“ button.
Developer Response ,
Thank you for your thoughtful feedback. We're glad to hear you’re finding the content interesting and that it’s become a positive part of your morning routine.
We appreciate you pointing out the areas for improvement as well. You're right that producing content is a lot of work, but maintaining quality is important, and we’re working on improving consistency across articles. Your idea about adding a “needs proofreading” button is a good one, and we’ll look into it.
Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience with us.
Epic
This app is super cool, I wanted something to just kinda give me random things to read about and this was the app. You have access to all the articles even if you don't have the premium although you do have to watch an ad to read it but I consider that a small price to pay to be able to literally read any article you want on the app. I highly recommend this app to anyone and everyone!
Developer Response ,
Thank you for your kind words! We're thrilled you’re enjoying the app and appreciate your recommendation—it means a lot to us!
