Lacking

Thanks to Reddits crappy treatment of Apollo and others, I walked away and thought Digg might be a new place for me. Nope. I’ve tried it for over a month and, although some of the content is interesting, it lacks the ability to engage me longer than 10 minutes before boredom sets in. And no back button??? Seriously? It’s actually seriously frustrating. Overall it’s clumsy to use and poorly designed. I feel like it was a high school kids first attempt at designing their own app.
I rarely look at it anymore, and now that I’m reviewing it… I realize I just need to delete it off my phone and move on.

Unable to login

Google is disallowing access due to an outdated login method. Update your app.

No way to swipe back to main feed???

After clicking a link to read, there’s no way to swipe back to where I was in the feed. No back button either. I’m forced to quit the app and start over.

One star. App deleted.

There is no back button

How can you surf content of a site without a back button? Example: Scroll down the main page until you find something interesting, click the article and read, now go back………you can’t, you have to press the DIGG logo and start the scrolling from scratch. It’s a terrible design.

App needs to be shut down.

Whoever wrote this app has absolutely no common sense. You can tell by some of the articles he’s chosen (Being against scientific debates? Science is about debates) but more importantly, they is no back button after you select an article. So you have to hit the “digg” icon and start all over.
