Totally Left Propaganda
Don't look for a balanced approach to politics here. This is app is about bashing President Trump period. Too bad, how do people listen to this crap every day? Think for yourselves, you don't need this brainwashing app!!! Was hoping to find real discussions on issues affecting people on the street like me, you would think the President is the only thing that matters in the whole world. What about jobs, the economy, our states, our communities? I'm so tired of Trump is bad... who cares, vote him out next time, let's talk about something else. What policies are Democrats or Republicans introducing, what bipartisan bills are moving forward, what about the opioid epidemic, how are our states meeting the challenges facing its citizens. Why can't just one app get off the Trump derangement partisan train? Totally worthless one sided, tell people what they want to hear not what they need to know, garbage.

Great news source, okay interface
I really love this program, but wish the interface was updated to fit to the size of all sizes of phones. I wish the app would be updated to fit screens of all phone sizes and the interface was a more organized/attractive.
I appreciate this app!!
I am thankful that I can listen to the newscast on my way to work without watching the video. When I’m home, watching the video is great—they have incredible guests—but I don’t always have time so the number one thing I appreciate about the app is that I can listen to the newscast without streaming video which eats up data.
Since I’m here a couple things I appreciate about Democracy Now in general: The news is not often something to celebrate, and hardly ever is it good news but I think being informed is one of the best choices a human living in this time can make. Democracy Now sites their sources, allowing the public to find information out on their own. Another really important thing I think people should do: their own research. Don’t just take what newscasters say for the complete truth! Besides the fact that they generally have a limited time to cover certain stories (you can always learn more) you should be able to confirm or deny what you’re being told. Democracy Now gives you the tools to do that. This transparency is why I continue to return to Democracy Now to keep up with current events. Thanks DM!

Great App but buggy
Please fix the refresh on the headlines tab. I’ve had to stop using the app because I can’t access the mist recent headlines. This is a simple thing to fix (refresh typically loads random episodes from a week or two ago).
I will gladly update my review if this is fixed. Other than this bug, Great streamlined app, exactly what I need and no useless/distracting features that I don’t.

Democracy App Works Great With iPhone And Voice Over Screen Reader!
In addition to providing one of the best independent news sources in the world, the iPhone app works great with the Voice Over Screen reader used by blind people who possess an iPhone.
Good job DN!

Audio problems
The audio is frequently out of sync which is not a terrible problem but a worse problem is that you can’t go out of the app and have the audio continue playing. For example if you want to change your Bluetooth settings.
Good news, rough app
All for Dem. Now, but with an iPhone 7 even, it super frequently freezes and slows down my whole phone...any other solutions that can be tried to work on that? Seems a previous version didn’t, but that the one before that did, so not sure...
Love and critisism
I am so glad this app exists. I am able tinwatch the daily show so much more and It works much better for me than the ITunes video podcast. However I wish that I could have the option to download the video if I am going to leave my house (where it streams from the internet) and not finished listening. I also wish the audio for the video would keep playing when I need to access other things on my phone.

about a girl
no news station is perfect, i hear the BBC World Service, Radio 4's breakfast show and used to be an Independent newspaper reader as i'm a big fan of R Fisk, until it went sound bite trash. Where do i find level headed news ? Al Jazerra ? ha. Sky..? sorry. BBC, ITV, CNN.. ? thanks to this app and Noan Chomsky et al i'm able to gather a truer picture of what's what.

Great News Source
Democracy Now provides the most unbiased news with no corporate interests involved. It is one of the only news sources that I trust.
I think the app could use a little upgrading however. It’s not the most organized, and I am not sure how to find the war and peace report. But besides these issues it definitely does the trick and I know they are not rolling in money and doing the best they can.
10/10 would recommend :)
