Great content

Wow, this network has something for everybody, all political views, lots of non-political stuff, and the authors all seem to be really thoughtful, insightful people. The commenting features are cool, and the scrolling is fast. It’s easy to upload videos and photos to go along with my comments, too. I took off one star because, while it works fine on my iPad Pro, it feels like an afterthought, the images and video thumbnails stretch across the screen....seems like they could do something better than just a giant version of the phone.

Great app but lots of bugs

This is a great app. I use it to follow and ask Scotty Kilmer and his online car community questions. I like the idea of having a community and an main editor with whom we can all interact with. However there are lots of bugs, like text disappearing when I’m typing and later reappearing when I post, causing me to sometimes repeat myself, or sometimes my text at the bottom/end will end up at the top/beginning. Also when I post a URL and try to type in front of it, part of the URL will disappear or get messed up causing broken links. When I want to just share a link, it tells me I have to add a some other text to it besides the URL, which is stupid, annoying, and completely absurd. Sometimes, images won’t appear and instead will show a broken image URL. These bugs have been around for months, if not years because the app does not get updated regularly enough.

Maven introduces a complete user interface redesign in this version. A new on-boarding experience allows the user to pick the topics or sites they want to follow and view a blended stream from My Feed. The navigation redesign includes My Feed, the Maven key (which allows the user to view all sites followed, and view streams specific to each), search improvements, and an improved notification center for each site followed. Along with the stream improvements, the article pages have also been redesigned and now include a Related Articles widget, customized based on sites followed and content read.
