### 2/5 — Annoying, poorly written app

*2026-08-21, version 8.10.2*

I have subscribed but am still costantly bombarded by ads ads to do so. Plus after you send a review the review must be erased manually. Hire someone to do a professional app for you. This is embarrassing

### 5/5 — ND insider

*2022-05-17, version 6.10.0*

I am a subscriber who is constantly blocked from subscription content. I’ve made multiple phone calls only to have the problem fixed for a day or 2 before it becomes a problem again. Very frustrating!

### 2/5 — Article order

*2022-05-08, version 6.10.0*

I’ve had this app for a few years now.  Why is everything not in chronological order anymore?? The newest articles should be on the top.  It’s really frustrating.

### 1/5 — Worked great until…

*2022-04-26, version 6.10.0*

The content has been fine but the tech side is frustrating. I’ve been a subscriber for six or so months and all of a sudden it doesn’t recognize my apple login. 

Two messages to support and 🦗crickets.
