Reviews of xkcd

  • Great

    Very good 5 stars also it is very good and did I mention it is very good?
  • Soap Box

    The app has little to offer to make it worth downloading. The creator RM stopped being funny and had too many agendas that he wants to push on his readers.
  • 10 Years

    I’ve had this app installed on my iPhones for 10 years. The only thing I wish it had were notifications when new comics come out.
