### 3/5 — +stars 4 <Wired

*2025-09-28, version 8.0.2*

4th star if you can delete Wired. It's like a breath of stink.

### 4/5 — 5th star if you can delete Wired

*2025-09-21*

5th star if you can delete Wired. It's like a breath of stink.

### 3/5 — Good but Bad

*2025-03-29*

I wanted a tech focused news feed and this on comes close.  The problem is there is no way to curate the feeds to try and get rid of biased or political content or context locked behind a pay-wall.  (Can Wired really be considered a tech publisher at this point?!). With better feed management, this would be a great program.

### 5/5 — Best tech news app

*2025-01-12, version 8.0.2*

No fuss tech news app

### 2/5 — And now plagued by paid sources

*2024-12-14*

Most of the best tech news one can get through your app come from The Verge and Wired… now with The Verge under a new subscription scheme (or racket), I’m pretty much locked out from tech news. Please consider adding a very helpful option on your app the add or suppress sources; a place where one could turn off Wired and The Verge, and keep the free services on, for starters.

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2024-03-17*

I would like to see all the channels in a single feed. I’m not sure if that is possible. Also how does the Feeds portion work? I don’t see an option to add sources to feeds. Overall the app is awesome. Very happy with all the sources of tech news that are available in a single place. The app has dark mode and reader mode as well. A single in that purchase removes ads. I’d be willing to pay for more features.

### 1/5 — Not very customizable, articles require subscriptions

*2022-09-04*

Feed fills with articles that require a subscription, and cannot remove them from the feed (Wired for example).

### 5/5 — One of the few apps I still love

*2022-05-08*

Thank you to the creators for not exploiting the app with a bunch of ads

### 2/5 — Not bad

*2022-01-02*

Cant find any way to remove feeds and that leaves a lot of junk in there that only gives you a headline while putting the rest behind a paywall.

### 1/5 — ADS keep appearing after purchase.

*2021-10-21*

Every time the developer updates the app the adds reappear.  This is totally unacceptable and should be fixed.  I shouldn’t have to restore my purchase constantly.  My guess is this breaks App Store rules and so I will be reporting them.
