It’s a shame it’s closing down
Whoever created this app, hats off to you. I think every single American should have this on their device. Robin Williams once said that he wished that they forced members of Congress to wear jackets with their sponsors on them like they do in NASCAR, this was the closest thing to that available. It seems that every watchdog group out here has been shutting down within the last handful of years, and these apps are becoming less and less available. I hope that the developer of this app will make another version once he graduates college, we need this kind of information.nyquilu4ia

Recommendation
Make a button that allows users to be directed to the contact information / link to website to contact congress person after reviewing a bill.civicduty!?$
Not Easy To Negotiate and getting in
When I’m on with my rep., I can’t switch over to another rep. In my state to see how they voted on a bill.
Also, under her photo, I can’t scroll down to see her overall voting record.
Am I doing something wrong, or is the app. screwed up?Marty Moon

Dear Marty Moon, When you’re on your representative’s page, you can press the back button to return to the full list of representatives, then navigate to another representative. You should be able to see her voting history on her page. Please email a screenshot of what the page looks like to support@pocketcongress.org so we can help you. Sincerely, SiddharthWon’t stay open
I really like the app, but there are continual problems with getting it open and stay open. It opens but immediately closes. It’s very frustrating. When it works, it’s great. I just can’t get it to work consistently.Fustupidnickname

Great for keeping up with legislative actions
This app is extremely helpful for anyone hoping to gain a better understanding of their district representatives and serves an important purpose of educating the general public on ongoing legislative reforms and bills.R4mi98
