Been in this state for months. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t even load *2024-02-08* It worked fine on day 1 and then suddenly crashed and now doesn’t seem to work at all. All it shows is home icon and nothing else ### 1/5 — App gets stuck opening *2023-11-23* I used to be able to use the app, but for several weeks now, it just gets stuck at the splash screen. I’ve tried force closing, rebooting, and reinstalling the app. None of which work. ### 1/5 — Can’t get past the launch screen *2023-11-19* The app rarely works. Most of the time it shows the logo and then hangs. ### 1/5 — App doesn’t open *2023-08-09* The app worked fine for couple of days and then it gets stuck on the logo while opening. I’m using an iPhone 11 on ios 16.5.1(c). It is very frustrating because I write articles on hashnode every week and am unable to use the app to do that, I’m being forced to use the web version. ### 2/5 — Needs performance improvements *2023-07-18* The phone and web apps simply do not work on a typical mobile connection or even 5G in the U.S. A good software engineer knows to design for the lowest common denominator which is NOT WiFi. Even when using wifi I keep having to delete and reinstall the app because the app becomes unusable. ### 2/5 — Needs performance improvements *2023-03-20* The phone and web apps simply do not work on a typical mobile connection or even 5G in the U.S. A good software engineer knows to design for the lowest common denominator which is NOT WiFi. Even when using wifi I keep having to delete and reinstall the app because the app becomes unusable. ### 2/5 — Clearly not a native app and it fails on user experience *2022-04-12* Scrolling, amongst other nuances! If you’re going to build a hybrid app then at least hide it and deliver on the experience. I personally don’t care what fits into your tooling, stack or skillset. I care to have a great app experience and this doesn’t deliver - do better! ### 3/5 — Needs performance improvements *2023-02-16, version 2.8.1* The phone and web apps simply do not work on a typical mobile connection or even 5G in the U.S. A good software engineer knows to design for the lowest common denominator which is NOT WiFi. Even when using wifi I often have to delete and reinstall the app because the app becomes unusable. ## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great app for any developer *2022-11-13* This app is a great replacement for any social media platform, with the added benefit of being able to learn, share content and interact with like minded people! And if you are looking to write a blog it is quick and fun to do so through any web browser. Thanks hashnode I am mostly new to the app but am enjoy all interactions! ### 3/5 — Pretty good *2023-01-27, version 2.7.3* I dig the app, and I really enjoy the community. One thing I wish the app had was a way to exclude tags from my feed. For example, I don’t care about React and really have no interest in reading about it, so I wish I could add “#react” to an exclusion list so I don’t see stories about it. My only other issue with the app is it’s quite cluttered. Everything feels super packed together on the UI. Pretty good though, otherwise. ### 3/5 — Pretty good *2023-01-11, version 2.2.0* Not very accessible imho can’t seem to get voiceover to work but the articles are nice ### 3/5 — App Crashes on Profile selection *2022-10-07, version 2.0.0* The app now crashes when I select my picture to open my profile. ### 3/5 — feature missing *2022-01-20, version 0.3.6* cant edit profile or follow new tags --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
