### 5/5 — An absolute game changer

*2026-08-13*

Finally, after years of antiquated browsing using Frost and Beagle, a true browser emerges. This is a complete game changer and completely recontextualizes the experience of browsing. Once you get your settings dialed in to how you like, it’s hard to put down. It honestly has me exploring other boards I normally skip over simply because it is that enjoyable and convenient to do so. Genuinely praying that this app survives the test of time and remains on the App Store for longer than its predecessors. 100 more years of overboard!! I can already tell I will be using this a ton!!! Thank you to the person/people responsible for this!!

**Developer response:** Love to hear it! Thank you for the support <3

### 5/5 — Getting better!

*2026-08-05*

Love this app and it’s only gotten better with the constant updates. I Would love an option for a one time payment to unlock certain features permanently. Personally I think having screen rotation/auto rotate behind a subscription seems a little steep.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much! 

A one-time unlock for some features is actually a really good idea, stay tuned I will work on getting that out. As for auto-rotate… yeah, that’s probably just me being a little too greedy. Apologies I’ll go ahead and unlock that one in the next update for everyone as well.

Thanks again :)

### 5/5 — Best image board app!

*2026-08-05*

This app has a ton of customization options and features. I’ve used ReadChan on Android previously but this app surpasses that one by a long shot and has become my favorite. Thank you to the developer for the great app! 🙏🏻

**Developer response:** Thanks a ton for the kind words <3 glad you are enjoying it!

### 1/5 — No obvious method to add extra boards

*2026-06-23*

UI is a mess. There should be an easy intuitive action to add extra boards after enabling the NSFW option, but it’s nowhere to be found.

**Developer response:** Hey Oleroy123,

Thanks for taking the time to leave feedback. Sorry to hear the UI felt messy, I’m actively working on improving the experience and will keep pushing updates to make the app cleaner and easier to use.

If there are any specific parts that felt confusing or frustrating, feel free to reach out via DM or Discord at A5omic. I’d really appreciate the details so I can improve it.

Sorry it didn’t meet your expectations this time, but I hope future updates can change your mind.

### 1/5 — Complicated Privacy

*2026-06-21*

Convoluted privacy and configuration options

**Developer response:** Hey Sieabah, 

Sorry you are not a fan of the app. If you have any recommendations or changes you think would benefit it, let me know! You can reach me through email, a support ticket, or any social media platform. Again sorry the app did not live up to your expectations. But hopefully I can improve it!

Thanks,
Tom

*2026-01-07*

**Developer response:** Appreciate it!
