Recent reviews

Great app and great concept. The Inkl model is something we have needed for many years as news media became pay walled. Congrats on having the determination to build this delivery model.

why is it that whenever I use the app, I have to go through the verification process EVERYTIME!

You can only see 1-2 articles on the screen at a time. I am neither a toddler who needs humongous pictures, nor an old person who can't see anything that isn't gigantic. Why can't we have regular sized articles. Everything is so jumbo.
