Ratings and Reviews
Actually the best application made for iPhone in the past decade
Haven’t the apps all gotten so boring? You see a developer realize a good feature has been implemented and, like clockwork, hide it behind a pointless paywall. You see an algorithm develop to no longer deliver you information effectively, but instead just make you angry.
This app has avoided all of that. I hope it can sustain that for the future. The promise of extending your phones capabilities with applications has been weakened in the years since it was made, but this app reignites that dream
Wow. Simply as advertised 🥹
Edit: Still love the app but the larger widget keeps breaking and to refresh it I need to make it a small one and then a bug one again.
One thing I would love to see change is the ability to reduce the text size of the widget so I can see many more articles at once other than two or three at a time. Or the ability to scroll articles on the widget itself.
Other than that: This app is wonderful! It does exactly as advertised and is beautiful and free at the same time. I really admire developers who aren’t shady when making “free” apps with hidden ads when claimed to be “ad free” and “premium” feature walls.
Way too good
While looking for news feed apps, I was having a hard time finding one which didn’t have an absurdly expensive subscription and/or looked out dated and ugly.
This masterfully crafted piece of software perfectly combines a clean, elegant interface with an intuitive user experience. Curating my feed was simple, and using the app has been a delightful experience.
With currently ZERO in app purchases, it is genuinely a must have app and I hope it expands to more platforms in the future.
