It has the potential to be great, but it keeps buffering on me when I try to post or save a profile bio. It rarely works. Also, the UI needs to be improved, or rather, you need better sorting options. I can't look back at previous posts to see if anyone had also responded to a post, like I do on reddit. I like that this seems to be geared towards authors. I just wish the app would be improved. I'll change my rating if they fix it.

After entering replying on email, entering the name, got to notification... it got frozen. After several attempts, the same page opened & and is still frozen. Is this a paid app? On Google Play under the name, it doesn't mention it is the subscription app,but on the Q & A page, when first opened the page, it says it. Disappointed? Yes! Uninstalling it? Yes! Why not mention it? It is a subscription. Do not install if you can't afford it. The truth.

Great content, Terrible app. Bad enough that clicking a link in Android's notification rarely opens the proper article (usually opens the last read), and the interface and search are clunky and unintuitive, but the audio player is absolutely ATROCIOUS! Play and pause, with ONLY A SLIDER to drag for skipping forward/back in a 1 hr podcast? You're joking, right? Previously this app at least had the mini-interface for the player on the lock screen and notification that had skip buttons. No more!

Have just signed up, but like very much the quotes from writers about beginnings ... This really is the most daunting task and the feeling never goes away. No matter how experienced or inexperienced, you always feel like a rooky, but being reminded that bleeding geniuses at the top of the game all felt the same helps during revisions when I've had to break up hard structures to allow meaning to flow more organically, (if that makes sense). Thanks, Anna 👋

Love the content, but the navigation is queasy. I get a notification that someone liked my comment; okay; I click the notification; in the ensuing screen, all I see is the comment, not even a [back arrow] to the original article. Also, the writer/publication duality can render things confusing for the readers. Most writers only write the one thing, and most readers don't think the way the app-makers have things mapped out. Finally, hold-spacebat-to-float-cursor isn't in the app?? C'mon...

I can't even get onto the site! I've tried signing in 20 times, uninstalled and reinstalled it, but when I try to create a user name, I get an error "there was an error saving your information", and there's no way to fix it! (Yes, I'm creating a user name correctly, per their parameters.) I tried to contact support, but there's NO way to submit a support request! There's only a support FAQ page, that didn't help, and a link that shows they're supposedly working correctly. Lousy and not worth it!
