### 5/5 — Invaluable Resource I Use Every Day

*2025-12-04, version 19.0.10*

As someone who works in public policy, mostly with Congress, it is essential to have access to well organized, up to date information about Members, their staffs, Committee assignments and other important data.  Congress Pro has been an invaluable part of my toolkit for years.  They are incredible pro-active when it comes to updating info.  I use this incredible tool all day every day.  I cannot recommend it highly enough!

### 5/5 — Best tool for reaching out to legislators

*2025-04-23*

This is an indispensable tool for obtaining good and up to date contact information for our congressional representatives.

### 5/5 — As promised.

*2025-03-11, version 19.0.7*

Reliable developer. Valuable tool.

### 5/5 — Location

*2025-02-17*

What happened to the location section?

**Developer response:** Thank you for the five-star review! There was a change in the latest operating system in how location services were approved by users, and it was crashing the app. We’re trying to figure out a way to bring it back (without the crash).

### 5/5 — Very Good A

*2025-02-06*

As a user of this app from nearly day one I used it successfully on the Hill. If I found a change of personnel they were responsive to make the change. Over time it became an excellent tool for individuals as most congressional and Whitehouse information for an individual, small firm or small nonprofit is very expensive. Today it is a very worthy tool. If the enterprise app was available for $10 a month would be well worth it. Even the 10 person program is bargain.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much!

### 1/5 — No members are shown

*2025-02-05*

List of members is not showing

**Developer response:** This was a result of the latest update. With the new update, it has been fixed and the 119th Congress will no populate on installation. Reminder, if you want the updates to continue, you will have to pay for a subscription.

### 1/5 — Misleading charges

*2025-02-05*

Buyer beware! I purchased this app for $9.99. When opening the app, I chose "use old version". The app wouldn't work. After communicating with the developer, it became clear that you MUST ALSO purchase a subscription for the app to work. This was not communicated. "Subscribe for Updates" is misleading. More accurate would be "Monthly subscription fees also required for app to function".

**Developer response:** We agree this isn’t fair. It appears to have been a bug of sorts (apparently Bluesky was a culprit) and then just a mistake by our team. That’s on me. The latest update shows the 119th Congress up to the point you’ve purchased it, but if you want pay updates that will still be the subscription. We have clarified the description on the latest update. - MC

### 5/5 — Helpful

*2025-01-28*

Very responsive to all changes and very helpful in general. Thank you for the personalized response and for taking the time.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much!

### 5/5 — Excellent Congressional Directory

*2025-01-16*

The Best

**Developer response:** Thank you!

### 5/5 — An Outstanding, Must-Have Resource

*2024-10-07*

I have over 15 years of government relations experience, and I’ve seen many different solutions for engaging with Congress. Most of them lackluster and painfully expensive. This resource is phenomenal for anyone needing to interface with congressional staff seamlessly. Also tremendously helpful for tracking legislation and election cycles. A must have - 5 stars all day!
