User reviews

Functional but vibe coded

I like how I get a breakdown on the coverage of a narrative. Don’t like how I can’t select which topic I want to read, like just politics and not security. Also, the fonts feel random and straight out of Claude code.

Response from developer

Hey, how's it going The version that we launched on September 12th was not a final version of the app. We were just getting the app approved by Apple. The current version has none of the issues you mentioned whatsoever. This app was built with a lot of attention to detail and design. With a pretty complex infrastructure in the back end that we're always improving I hope you like the new version
