### 1/5 — Crashing

*2025-06-23, version 7.3*

Tried opening several articles, keeps crashing. Too bad looks like it would be a great app if it would work.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2025-05-18, version 7.3*

Downloaded it, tried to click on 6 different articles. Crashed every time- uninstalled

### 1/5 — Crashes of iOS 18

*2024-12-17, version 7.3*

I downloaded hoping to read some articles. When I click on any article in the feed. It crashes the app. Everyone crashes. It’s basically useless.

### 5/5 — Best!

*2021-04-03, version 7.3*

Where did you guys go?

### 1/5 — Nothing shows up

*2021-02-14, version 7.3*

When I open the app, the whole framework is there, but 5ere is no content. There was a recent iOS update, so maybe the app just needs to be updated.

### 5/5 — The best app for neuroscience information

*2021-01-23, version 7.3*

The best app for neuroscience information

### 1/5 — Paying to remove ads doesn’t remove the ads

*2020-08-06, version 7.2*

I paid $2.99 for the ad-free version. This changed nothing. The ads continue to pop up as I browse. Some of them have no exit and require you to restart the program to remove them. Don’t waste your money on this.

### 5/5 — I love this app ♥️

*2020-05-13, version 7.0*

It’s just fantastic to have latest neuroscience news and hot trends in this field gathered from multiple important resources, categorized and summarized in such a user friendly platform ♥️♥️♥️
