But basically, this app is biased towards Democrats. It would be an awesome app if it included scripts and information for each side of the issues. This would be so easy for them to do. But it seems that the developers are not worried about being neutral. It’s still a useful app though. ### 5/5 — Social Media *2026-06-04, version 2.3.1* I get 5 calls on FB. Wasn’t on your list. Can you add Rep Russ Fulcher to my call list please? Thanks ### 5/5 — Love love love this app!!! *2026-05-22, version 2.3.1* This app is for everyone who likes to engage in democracy by calling your representatives! It is a beautiful thing! Try it! ### 5/5 — Excellent app for staying connected politically! *2026-05-21, version 2.3.1* When I am really depressed about the state of lawlessness in this country, I can easily call my representatives in my state to leave an opinion, or request for action. It’s the faster version of ‘writing a letter’. ### 4/5 — Use 5Calls Daily! *2026-05-19, version 2.3.1* 5Calls is the perfect way to take action and have an impact on the most serious issues facing our country. I use the app to call elected officials, use 5Calls script, and make a difference - all in 5-6 minutes!!! It’s effective and I recommend this action to everyone who cares about our democracy! ### 5/5 — Amazing Political App *2026-05-11, version 2.3.1* Keeps everything organized for the regular citizen to do our part in making calls. Thank you so much! ### 4/5 — Multilingual Needs *2026-05-02, version 2.3.0* I love this app, it could do so much more when available in additional languages ### 2/5 — useful, but why the agenda? *2026-04-28, version 2.3.0* useful to actually find your state representative information but at the same time, why are they always trying to push this agenda? There's way more going on than just trying to deal with ice and dealing with Trump. Why can't I find anything dealing with real issues? ### 5/5 — 5 Calls *2026-04-17, version 2.3.0* Love that this app allows me to make my voice heard and take action against the administration’s heinious acts and crimes, inside and outside of our country. ### 5/5 — Easy to call your reps! *2026-04-09, version 2.3.0* Yes I’m enjoying using this app because it is actually helping me express my thoughts more clearly and it also gives me a wider array of crucial issues that are facing us right now. ### 5/5 — Simple and Useful *2026-04-07, version 2.3.0* Thank you for this app, which is a helpful tool for contacting government representatives about important issues. Easy to use, with scripts and phone numbers. ### 5/5 — So easy *2026-04-07, version 2.3.0* I’m thankful that this app makes contacting my reps so easy. ### 5/5 — Just use it *2026-04-06, version 2.3.0* Easy and efficient way to contact your senators and congresspeople! There’s no good reason not to try it! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Useful but biased *2026-08-01, version 2.3.1* The app does provide convenient access to your representatives IF your opinions align with the app’s ideology. Contact tools and voice message scripts are quite helpful when you take progressive positions but not very helpful when your views might drift in another direction. It’s a shame that such a functionally solid app platform doesn’t accommodate more diverse opinions. ### 1/5 — Biased strongly to the left *2026-07-17, version 2.3.1* Claims it is neutral are obviously false. ### 1/5 — Entirely Left Wing *2026-06-06, version 2.3.1* Sad to say, the app is 100% oligarch rich person Dem. No chance for picking anti-oligarch anti-pedoelite. Look up “deficit” and you don’t get a single listing. ### 1/5 — One sided - closed ended *2026-06-04, version 2.3.1* Why not have all views, not just the Marxists 2% of the subjects ### 1/5 — What has happened to 5 calls? *2026-06-02, version 2.3.1* I’m so disappointed. What’s going on with 5 calls? I don’t get updates any more at a time when Trump is grifting, conning and stealing and corrupt? What’s going on? ### 1/5 — Should say DEMOCRATS ONLY in title and description *2026-05-10, version 2.3.1* Since it says contact your Congressman, I expected it to be a nonpartisan app. It is definitely Democrat-oriented and includes booster shots for Trump Derangement Syndrome. The issue descriptions are full of disinformation taken straight from mainstream news media sources. There are also outright lies included. For example, it says tariffs are illegal. They are not. Our nation generated all of its revenues from tariffs for the first century of existence. Income tax is actually illegal and wasn’t even mentioned. There are other examples of false statements about laws being broken when there either is no such law or it is being severely misinterpreted. Unless you are fully indoctrinated in Democrat Party rhetoric, you’ll find a lot to irritate you in the issue descriptions. If you’re content to ignore facts and embrace lies in order to feed/maintain your irrational hatred, then this is the app for you. Enjoy! ### 1/5 — Left positions only! This app sucks! *2026-04-17, version 2.3.0* When choosing a topic in this app, it only shows positions in favor of left wing, progressive stances, and in opposition to right wing or, otherwise known as, reasonable, American, stances. ### 1/5 — Liberal App *2026-03-17, version 2.3.0* This app is very liberal. Does not give you a choice to support a conservative view. I would like my Senators to vote for the Save Act. Only gives you an option to vote against it. ### 1/5 — not unbiased. total prewritten leftist agenda. you can’t oppose the topics only support theirs. *2026-02-20, version 2.3.0* leftist app that doesn’t allow you to show opposition to their agenda ### 1/5 — One sided narrative *2026-02-20, version 2.3.0* So liberal and one sided. I didn’t realize pesticide immunity and poisoning Americans wasn’t a by partisan issue. I should t be surprised when you have a topic supporting 70+ vaccines for babies and children. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Superb! *2026-08-15, version 2.3.1* What a great resource! House identify key concerns and provides an automatic link to the appropriate representatives that we might be able to leave a message or send an email to. Thank you for making this possible! ### 5/5 — Use the app for efficient calling *2026-08-14, version 2.3.1* This is the easiest way to make a difference by contacting your representatives ### 5/5 — It’s urgent that our legislators keep hearing from us *2026-08-06, version 2.3.1* As many people as possible need to use this easy tool to put pressure on our legislators to do the right thing. I just left messages to my senator on Todd Blanche. Even though they are likely to vote for him, the pressure should keep building and we never know. We can’t give up. ### 5/5 — Changed my life *2026-07-30, version 2.3.1* This app changed my life. It tells you how many other people called about the same issue, it taught me voicemails count the same as calls (as long as you include your full address!), and one of my Senators used my words on camera. I called about ICE funding and said "I need you to fight this tooth and nail," and he said "We're going to fight this tooth and nail." YEAH BABY! Yeah you are! Let's go!! ### 5/5 — Our government *2026-07-29, version 2.3.1* If everyone used this app we would have a government of, for, and by the people. ### 5/5 — 5calls and town halls! *2026-07-28, version 2.3.1* This app made it extremely easy to have all the information in a timely manner that I needed to communicate with my congressman who work for me and my community to protect our constitutional rights to the best of my ability and yo determine who answers and responds accordingly so my vote matters. ### 5/5 — Make your voice heard *2026-07-28, version 2.3.1* I am very grateful for this app because it makes it very easy for me to contact my representatives to express my opinion about current legislation and issues in our government. ### 5/5 — Amazing app makes contacting Congress simple *2026-07-22, version 2.3.1* This app is super easy to use and makes contacting your Congress members simple by using your zip code to identify and list contact info for your representatives. You can even search by issue if you would like a script to help you contact them. Thank you for such a powerful and needed tool! ### 5/5 — Do Something Americans *2026-07-17, version 2.3.1* This App provides all of us a way to share our opinions on issues w our congressional representatives. ### 5/5 — Use this app and make a difference *2026-06-11, version 2.3.1* Empowering, helpful, educational, east to use --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
