So it was relegated to below-the-fold status (aka 2nd page) but after the latest update it’s moved to top 3. Thanks for the update and keeping things relevant! **Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback, we're really glad you like the update! ### 2/5 — Downloaded and deleted. *2020-06-27* It’s 2020. Why should the “women’s content” be on a separate tab that I have to click on separately? I read/scroll through the “men’s news”, why not the other way around? Integrate your stories. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback, this is an excellent point and we will forward it to our editorial team. ### 2/5 — Larger text size please *2019-07-11, version 5.9* I like the app but wish I could increase text size on the news articles so I could read them on the go. ### 4/5 — Fonts too small *2018-11-13, version 5.9* Article fonts way too small and no way to change them in Preferences. ### 4/5 — I can’t share! *2018-09-23* I loved this app at first, but for over a month now I press the envelope to share on Facebook, and it does nothing. Nothing at all. I love your articles, I just wish I could share them. Sad. ### 3/5 — Posting *2018-08-21* You used to offer the option to post articals on other sites. I posted to Facebook regularly. Very frustrating that this option is no longer offered. ### 4/5 — Good app. *2017-09-29* This is a good app and keeps up to date on the issues. The only drawback is that the articles aren’t able to be shared to other social media groups. If it had a share ability it would get 5 stars. **Developer response:** Hey LGBTRicky! Thanks for the feedback. That feature does seem to be broken; we'll get our dev team right on it. ### 3/5 — A good source of LGBTQ news *2017-07-30, version 5.3* Easy to keep up with information not readily obtained elsewhere. ### 2/5 — Just work with Internet connexion *2015-12-04* The magazine is amazing, but this app isn't it, because somethings: 1- it doesn't work without Internet connexion, even when you download the magazine to read later; 2- every time you are reading an article and open a new app, like an email that just pop up, you need to find the article again, because the app always restart when a new app is open. Sometimes find the same article in the list is too much complicate. ### 1/5 — Bye, Felicia *2015-06-02, version 3.8* Takes forever to load, crashes frequently and now won't load more than one image per gallery. ### 3/5 — App Keeps Crashing *2014-12-11, version 3.6* I just recently downloaded it onto my iPod again after deleting it because I didn't have enough space. The app itself is awesome and really easy to navigate, but when I attempt to open it, it loads for usually around 3 seconds and just crashes. Please fix this. I miss my Edge articles. ### 1/5 — Upgrade = Lousy *2014-09-14, version 3.4* The upgrade ruined it, as usual. Takes too long to load. Lousy. Crashes. Doesn't work. Waste of time. Shambles. A shame. ### 1/5 — Does not download latest issues. *2014-09-09, version 3.4* I have a current subscription, but the app does not show any issues after April, 2014. There is no one to write to in order to complain. Help! ### 2/5 — Continues to crash *2014-09-04, version 3.4* This app continues to crash and close stories while I am in the middle of reading them. So annoying. I just want my gay news. Is that too much to ask for? ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2014-08-21, version 3.4* Won't even open. Stuck on the opening screen ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — LGBTQ *2026-05-30* That is what this app this new app is supposed to be about nothing more. ONLY LGBTQ RELATED CONTENT 1,000,000% OF THE TIME. NO QUESTIONS ASKED NO EXCUSES. That’s what originally drew to me towards this app. ### 1/5 — Used to be great *2020-08-14* Until a few days ago, this was a wonderful app, easy to read with lots of articles to quickly choose from. Now it’s been redesigned to have one article claiming most of the page, while the rest are shoved off to the left in a slow-to-scroll column. What a shame. **Developer response:** We're sorry you dislike the new layout on iPads. The new layout provides a 'side by side' display that allows you to quickly read articles without swapping to new screens, but we will work to restore an option on iPad to provide the old display you enjoyed. Thank you so much for your feedback. ### 1/5 — Notifications *2019-04-14* Notification of breaking news does not work. Never has. No matter what I do. ### 1/5 — Slow *2018-07-07* App loads far too slowly. Content is okay. ### 1/5 — Too Many Ratings Begging *2017-11-30* Love the app. Hate the prompting for ratings. ### 1/5 — Now will not load *2017-07-18, version 5.2* The app will not load, no way to contact dev about issue. A good app when it works. Update in response to dev, I have always updated my app and still have had this issue. Also this issue has occurred over 2 iPhone 6's and 1 iPhone 6+. ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2016-12-21, version 4.8* Says initializing at startup and never starts. ### 1/5 — Crashes when opening *2016-11-06, version 4.8* It keeps crashing when I try to open the app. ### 1/5 — News story order constantly jumble around as next page loads *2015-06-15, version 4.3* I've noticed that when I'm scrolling down to load the next page the stories get all jumbled up out of order and the old stories get mixed with the new. It's very difficult to try and keep track of which stories are new and which are ones I've already read when the order constantly jumbles around the page. Is this a known bug? It's happened on my old and new iPhone. ### 1/5 — Broken.. *2015-06-12, version 4.3* You took out the news... ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Little slow *2018-12-17* Love the app. Full of information. You provide a great and informative product that is often unavailable in the mainstream media. Your articles are relevant. Thank you! ### 5/5 — iPhone 10 issue? *2018-05-24* Just noticed the window only takes up about half of the screen now. Is this an issue with the iPhone 10? ### 5/5 — Great News source ! *2017-08-04, version 5.4* I check this site on my phone daily! Love the concise articles! I love the app as well, always improving on it! ### 5/5 — Awesome content, stylish design - better than ever! *2015-09-26* This app effortlessly deserves 4 stars for being stylish in design and delivering awesome content. And now it deserves a 5th star as well because you can download news and features for reading even when you don’t have a network connection (such as on the subway underground or in airplane mode). Before such trips, I just download the sections I like and then my commute is both more interesting and I’m better informed. Bravo to the developers who made something really, really good even better. ### 5/5 — Much better! *2015-01-22, version 3.7* This version is much improved over the last version. Only bug I've seen so far is one duplicate headline that showed up. Overall the app is much better at retrieving headlines than before. Congrats on a good release! ### 5/5 — Update stinks *2014-04-02, version 3.2* Since the update the digital magazine won't load, it's slower than molasses and errors out. ### 5/5 — Me *2013-09-02, version 3.0.1* Great app, I enjoy it! ### 5/5 — PaulinAZ *2013-08-31, version 3.0.1* Great app! I really enjoy the content. Thank you for making it available. I do wish it would load faster though! ### 5/5 — Love it *2013-08-22, version 3.0.1* I get caught up on events with notifications ### 5/5 — Amazing *2013-08-16, version 3.0.1* The subscription is totally worth it! So if ur thinking of subscribing, do so! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
