### 5/5 — Brilliant!

*2020-12-15*

Brilliant concept better connecting us to the people in power who are supposed to represent us. I can’t wait to see where this goes.

### 5/5 — You need this in your life!

*2020-11-04*

Great app! Interactive...love how there are surveys that allow you to select your beliefs and see where you stand against other users. I'm a republican but I really liked how I put in my stances and the app aligned me with candidates from all parties that shared my views. It caused me to research candidates further and opened my eyes to the politicians that really stand for what I believe. Also, the articles are always a great read and very informative on current issues!

### 4/5 — Great with tons of additional potential

*2020-10-20*

The app works great for political news and issues, but it could some links or citations for the politicians' policies/political stances. In addition, I find the bulletins not to be very responsive if at all. This even applies to pages that actually do work on the News tab, but not on the candidates' bulletin page.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2020-10-18*

Looking forward to what’s to come here.

### 5/5 — Nomiki introduced me

*2020-07-31*

Cool app, saw Nomiki Konst talking about it!

### 2/5 — Didn’t have my town in the list, so couldn’t sign up.

*2020-06-11*

Why doesn’t it find my reps based on zip code?

### 2/5 — Needs work

*2020-06-10*

I love the concept of this app, but it is completely unusable. The loading times between survey questions are astronomical, and the questions shift on the page while you’re trying to answer one.

### 1/5 — How do I delete my account?

*2020-06-06*

I don’t see a place in the app to pause or delete my account if I need a break from the news cycle. Where do I go to delete Civvy account?
