Oh, I am so disappointed. It looks like the app hasn't been updated in years. Old design, bugs causing not showing current articles.

Still doesn't download latest news on my Samsung 5g. Crashes when I click archive. Useless

I was really looking forward to getting my ACM news on the app. Then I noticed that it only fetched articles up until 2018 (and it still thinks we're in 2018). Nevermind that the app's UI is dated, we can get past that if the actual purpose of the app was fulfilled. Please review and fix your app and I'll gladly change my rating. Or just stop mentioning the app in the newsletter as if it were something that worked. Thanks!

Quite disappointing. The Latest News tab shows articles from July 2nd 2018. The functionality of the app is marginal, and the design reminds me of a time where smartphones didn't even exist. Why not one star? Because I could find the current news in the Archive tab.

In "Latest" tab, the date is not updating to today's date. So latest news is not shown. Option is going to archives. I have never faced this issue earlier. Please check.

As a paying ACM member I wish that we could have a functional application. Severely disappointed as this app cannot download updated stories.
