Every Time you exit the app and go back into it is has to "refresh" and then you can't swipe back. Use tapatalk because this app is truly trash ### 1/5 — One Horrible App! *2016-08-07, version 1.2.1* First off the only app that I can sign in to is the GMinsidernews! All the rest of 12 forums I am locked out of or cannot post! The way this new app menu operation is not the way a user would use a particular forum. You have jump through a lot of steps to do anything. The sliding horizontal page mechanism is an example. You have to move the page up a row to avoid the ad place just below it to work the page slide! All the mechanisms in this new app is like this. Posting is done with a super small icon located on the upper right hand corner. You cannot select a quote or I cannot do it! I now use the web browser instead of this garbage app! ### 1/5 — Seriously? *2016-07-05, version 1.2.1* Is the only reason this app exists here is for advertising? Is been a long time since this app actually worked and if it's not going to function as stated, take it the heck down. The Google Play version works well, are we not entitled as Apple consumers, the same benefits? ### 1/5 — Please fix this app!!! *2016-06-21, version 1.2.1* Deleting this app as soon as I write this review. Crashes constantly. Will not keep me logged in and when I try to log in it doesn't recognize my password.FRUSTRATION!!!! ### 1/5 — Notifications Do Not Work *2016-05-04, version 1.2.1* As the title suggests, notifications do not work at all with this app. Tech-support is useless and has the end-user try insignificant tasks numerous times, including repeating those tasks later in the future date. They do not take the time to properly diagnose the issue. ### 1/5 — Unfortunately the better version does not work anymore *2016-04-17, version 1.2.1* Forums are reporting the more usable/stable FULL version is no longer supported. So we have to download this add filled less stable and more annoying version. That stinks. ### 1/5 — Needs LOTS of improvement *2016-04-14, version 1.2.1* Frequent crashes. Poor Navigation. Infrequent notifications. Sure, it has the UI "bling" when it works, but is very difficult to use and navigate. Not impressed, at all. ### 1/5 — Please Update This App *2016-03-31, version 1.2.1* I was forced into getting this app after tapatalk support ended. Trying to view pictures ends up sending you to the safari app where you still can't view the photos. The photos that are viewable cannot be zoomed in. Navigation is a nightmare, but doable. There is no ability to "like" posts. When you quote somebody in a thread it quotes all of the previous quotes too, nobody wants all that extra clutter. Also make a darn ad free version again. ### 1/5 — Poor design *2016-03-10, version 1.2.1* The search function doesn't even work and navigation is terrible. Please fix ASAP. ### 1/5 — How is this a finished app?? *2016-03-04, version 1.2.1* Navigation on this is such a pain trying to go back to another topic either pulls up favorites and quote and other things or swipes back to the other topics and then you have to scroll way down to find where you were. The old app was buggie with notifications but at least it was easy to use and not a hassle to pull things up also scrolling then stopping sometimes opens that thread that you didn't intend to even open then you have to scroll all the way back to it again so frustrating to use this app. All having to click favorites then your forum is dumb the other just had the ones you were signed into at the top and you just tap once on the one you wanted. Please revert back to the other app and just fix the notifications and leave it alone ### 1/5 — This version is terrible!!! *2016-02-20, version 1.2.1* You can't even jump back to a forum topic out of a thread without having to go back through the navigation and then scroll all the way back down and try and find where you were...... If y'all are gonna change to an updated version and kick everyone off the good already working version then you should get it straight and working better than the earlier version first! Ridiculous! Plus I can't change loading behavior to where it opens to the first unread post instead I have to go and try and find where I left off..... Get your crap together autoguide!!!!!! ### 1/5 — I hate this version *2016-01-22, version 1.2.1* This is a TERRIBLE update! Bring back the format that allows me to mark each line separately as read, or mark it as favorite with a simple line swipe! I can't "like" some bodies post anymore! Allow me to go directly to my favorite forums again. It is so user unfriendly that I may go BACK to the FREE version to get those options again. ### 1/5 — Constant crashes and slow *2015-12-13, version 1.2.1* Upgraded to this after a ye wrangler forum app was discontinued in dec 2015. What a mistake. This app crashes 9 of every time, when it works, the images do not display properly or is so slow that is useless. Since wrangler forum does not work well on mobile browser either, then only solution was stop visiting and paying for supporting the wranglers forum until they figure out what to do ### 1/5 — Open old apps cheapskate *2015-11-25, version 1.2.1* 3 apps, new one stinks and as of today the two old ones do not work. Thanks going to mobile web as your ad ridden app is awful, navigation etc stink! Ask me how I really feel Edit after going to Mobil web,this app is nothing more than mobile web but with ads. This used to be my go to app. Not no mo ### 1/5 — worse than old version *2015-10-17, version 1.2.1* I switched to this version seeing it had been updated more recently than the other. Sadly, this one locks up more often than the old one and is terribly slow to use. At least the old version had gotten somewhat stable but search didn't work. I travel a lot so almost all my forum activity is done on my phone. As a result, activity in the auto-guide owned forums has declined by more than 70% since I don't have a functional app. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Used to be good *2020-02-15, version 1.2.1* Won’t work any more ### 1/5 — App no longer loads *2019-11-22, version 1.2.1* App will no longer load on iPhone XS Max. Hasn’t worked in months. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled with no luck. ### 1/5 — I Don’t Think This Developer Cares *2019-09-09, version 1.2.1* I’ve used this app in the past to get the LotusTalk forum, it worked OK. With iOS 12, the text display on my iPhone overlapped with graphics and other text. I deleted the app and reinstalled but it didn’t help. On my last reinstall, the app won’t even load. When the app worked, I used it frequently. I wish the developer cared. ### 1/5 — What a joke! *2019-08-09, version 1.2.1* Apparently the Autoguide app considers updating an expense they can’t afford. If you’re an advertiser stay away! ### 1/5 — Disgustingly Terrible *2019-03-03, version 1.2.1* I despise this app. Totally. Horrible navigation, sometimes doesn’t format in a readable way when opened. Will never improve, b/c devs don’t care and have disappeared. Cannot even back out of a forum to the main list. How for years can something persist in continual lameness such as this..... ### 1/5 — This app is complete garbage *2017-10-20, version 1.2.1* Seriously what the hell happened to this app. It’s a complete waste of time now navagation is so clumsy and I can’t even log into the forums I use ### 1/5 — Glitchy *2017-03-20, version 1.2.1* App worked fine initially, hit as of two days ago it started acting glitchy and now I can't open it at all. I tap the app, I get the opening flash screen, then it disappears in the background. When I find it in the background, it's open to a forum and page I previously had open last week and when I tap on it to go to it, it disappears and refuses to open even after repeated attempts. Ugh! ### 1/5 — Bad app *2017-03-08, version 1.2.1* This app is terrible! The navigation is atrocious and the menus overlap with the top battery bar, clock, and signal bars. Compared to Tapatalk this app is terrible. And tapatalk is not that good.... ### 1/5 — Yep, it's really that bad *2017-01-21, version 1.2.1* And, as bad as the previous app was, at least it was useable. Navigation in forums is openly user hostile, no searching for forum names, as far as I can tell searching forums doesn't work at all, controls that are nearly impossible to use, etc. Maybe I'll check back in a few months, until then I'll be using a web browser for these forums. ### 1/5 — Remove From App Store *2016-09-30, version 1.2.1* Paid for full version which was pulled from App Store. This version is horrible. Paid version no longer works with iOS10. Boycott this app developer! ## Most praised reviews (2 highest-rated) ### 3/5 — won’t open with ios11 *2017-10-02, version 1.2.1* The app won’t open after ios11 update, please update! ### 2/5 — Very bad layout and navigation *2017-10-18, version 1.2.1* Good content in forums.
