Now only pulls up local state representatives. ### 3/5 — Our Congress *2023-02-03, version 1.4.5* Why was the great website turned into something practically useless ### 2/5 — Not Updated *2022-08-06, version 1.4.5* The content is spot on however my district was not updated with the proper representative in my local county. Redistricting recently occurred ### 4/5 — Love it. *2022-08-02, version 1.4.5* The application is great it really personalizes what’s going on on the floor of the Senate and house in a way I haven’t seen any other app do. I would like to see a section on elections for the house in Senate that would offer personalized polling and key considerations for each race that’s coming up. Or at minimum links to different pulling organizations during an election. ### 4/5 — Update *2022-05-07, version 1.4.5* This APP needs updating! There is no list of Congressional committees served by each member of the House or Congressional Records. This is a shame because I really like this APP. It’s important to me to see how they’re serving our government. ### 5/5 — Amazing app but one request *2021-06-30, version 1.4.5* Amazing app that keeps me well informed on what’s going on current bills and voting records for past bills. One reason I use this app is to speculate on stock market based on upcoming bills that will be voted on, any way you can put a “upcoming votes” section that shows the closest vote coming up? Thanks!! ### 3/5 — No member committee assignments *2021-04-15, version 1.4.5* There are no committee assignments showing up when I chose a Rep or Senator. ### 5/5 — The app voters need. *2021-04-14, version 1.4.5* Phenomenal information! Erik has created an easy to navigate and very accessible app that provides info that every voter needs. See what your Congress is up to and voting on and all of the relevant contact info so you can make your voice heard! Excellent app, Erik! Keep it up! ### 5/5 — Great *2021-04-11, version 1.4.5* It succeeds where it wants to ### 5/5 — Exactly what I have been searching for! *2021-03-09, version 1.4.5* I am beyond elated that I discovered a convenient app for following the state of Congress and politicians. I didn't expect at all to find an app that could suit this crucial need during these turbulent times. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t download this app! *2023-04-26* I posted a previous review and it’s not visible, I’m hoping this one will remain. The most recent House info is from February of 2023. The most recent senate info is from February of 22’. Don’t allow it to have your location, just don’t download the app. This app either was given up on a year ago or it’s for people who don’t pay attention and forget they have the app and then it allows the app to track your device usage. ### 1/5 — Needs updating *2023-02-12, version 1.4.5* Content is outdated. The current congressional members are not shown. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2023-01-10, version 1.4.5* Not current, not useful ### 1/5 — Not working *2023-01-09, version 1.4.5* Not working ### 1/5 — Congress *2023-01-06, version 1.4.5* Cannot access our US senate and reps ### 1/5 — The People’s House *2022-04-02, version 1.4.5* Our Congress is now composed mainly of elected officials who abuse the public trust for personal gain. The Honorable Daryl Issa, Jim Jordan, and a minority of other members, actually act on the people’s behalf. I believe that the levels of corruption and criminality have been exposed sufficiently now that November 2022 will be a year that will see many members fail to be re-elected. It is my prayer that the new House and Senate will reclaim our Constitution and address the threats of monopolized Media, Big Business and the WEF to our freedoms and our very way of life. ### 1/5 — لااستطيع فهمه *2022-02-01, version 1.4.5* اريد الترجمه كيف يعمل ### 1/5 — Poor *2021-11-24, version 1.4.5* It can’t remember my choices. Not able to determine much ### 1/5 — Search ??? *2021-05-30, version 1.4.5* I’d set my Representatives in the app which gave me great information. However, when I try to find information on other Representatives in the Search Field the Results are Nil with a Blank Result even after I go to Wikipedia and enter in the Representatives information I want to look for and even then the Result in the Search Field is Blank. Which begs the question; why go to the app when I can use Wikipedia?? Ease of Use yuh dolt app creators, Ease of Use. ### 1/5 — Not working *2021-02-09, version 1.4.5* Bugs ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love it *2023-02-09, version 1.4.5* I love this app it immediately shows me my representatives, our representatives. Please use this app ### 5/5 — Needs Update *2023-01-28, version 1.4.5* A great app for contacting my Federal and State officials. I just wish it was updated with the current Congress - even if I have to search for them. ### 5/5 — Amazingly Unbiased Raw Information *2022-11-01, version 1.4.5* This is the real news, not filtered through the media. Solid use of APIs to gather and compile info as close to the source as they could get. The app is very easy to use and does not take up much storage. Also, huge bonus is that this app does not collect data. Kudos to the developer! ### 5/5 — Thank You Devs 🫡 *2022-10-23, version 1.4.5* Just downloaded and its quick and informative. ### 5/5 — Perfect *2022-07-26, version 1.4.5* So useful in keeping up with Congress ### 5/5 — My interest in the workings of US Congress *2022-07-16, version 1.4.5* As a retiree, I’m most interested in the debate/progression of current (2023) SSA benefits reform bill. M. Smith ### 5/5 — William *2022-06-25, version 1.4.5* This app is a great way to contact our representatives to let them know how they should vote on certain matters. Also a great source of information. ### 5/5 — Saving our precious Democracy 🇺🇸 *2022-04-04, version 1.4.5* A future that preserves our democracy in America that will survive the mid-terms and the 2024 presidential election will depend on all of us uniting to save it. Dems can increase our majority in the Senate and the House by getting out there and voting. President Biden is doing everything possible to save us. We can all do it together🇺🇸 ### 5/5 — Our Congress App *2021-12-01, version 1.4.5* Great App to help people get involved on a local level but the app doesn’t stop there! You can view house representatives, senators and congress as well as the bills that are being considered and ones to take action on! The App also gives you the amendments, constitution and preamble! It’s time every American get involved and take action. America’s freedom is slipping away! Fight back for your rights. This app helps you do just that! 🇺🇸 ### 5/5 — Essential tool *2021-09-13, version 1.4.5* This app should come preloaded on all devices because it is an essential tool of American citizenship whereby we keep our representatives feet to the fire so they do what the PEOPLE want, not what the special interests want. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
