### 5/5 — Take a break from doom, crawling with some awesome content!

*2025-10-19, version 10.1683281702*

This is my alternative to starting off today with the same old news. Practically every day, I am sharing an article from this wonderful resource on my phone.

### 1/5 — Ad crazy

*2024-09-07, version 10.1683281702*

I was reading an article and my finger touched a Target store and a pop up ad to buy the advertised product with no way to get back to story or any other part of the app unless I bought the merchandise. So I deleted this stupid ad crazy app! Bye you greedy jerks,

### 2/5 — Great Content. Awful User Interface

*2024-06-26, version 10.1683281702*

On the plus side, this app has lots of great current science content. Only problem is the interface is poorly designed and quite buggy. To make matters worse, in the latest version, the ads cover half the screen and hide portions of the user interface.

### 1/5 — Unusable now

*2024-06-25, version 10.1683281702*

The new ads have made the app unusable on my phone now.  They cover the home button and I can’t get rid of them.  I’ll be deleting the app.  Good work.

### 5/5 — Always something interesting

*2024-02-12, version 10.1683281702*

Straightforward information without the distractions!

### 5/5 — This is the actual news

*2023-10-17, version 10.1683281702*

Lovely interface, good content. 
If you want to feel hopeless and anxious, tune in to the 24-hour news cycle. 
If you want to feel hopeful, interested, and occasionally awestruck, read ZME Science.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2023-06-27, version 10.1683281702*

Great for signs lovers, but my only complaint is when you play a video you're pretty much stuck on the website that video is playing there's no way to go back to the article you were reading, so I have to keep downloading the app, so no more playing videos for me on this app

### 3/5 — Great content, why not hire an app developer?

*2023-06-10, version 10.1683281702*

The content is amazing, but with all the scientific know how, why not make an app that you can actually navigate well?  No back button?  No way to minimize or go back from articles that were just opened?  Seems like some very basic functions are missing which greatly decreases the experience (is almost too frustrating to use).  There is so much potential here!! Please look into improving the interface so I can recommend this app to my colleagues and friends!!

### 1/5 — More politics than science

*2023-04-30, version 1.3*

I think this app leans left. Otherwise we’d see more articles debunking ideologies like climate change, which used to be called global warming, btw.

### 5/5 — Enriching Journalism

*2023-04-27, version 1.3*

Educational interesting content.
