2026-07-10	De*****	It makes no sense to have such a great app and be unable to transfer all your saved files to new devices. I lost over three years of articles believing I had saved them just to find out there's no way to import them to a new phone.

2026-07-04	An*****	This app is almost perfect for what I need. I just wish I was able to choose other fonts since I would like to be able to select OpenDyslexia for it.

2026-07-02	Ja*****	Indispensable to provide a minimalist, oled battery friendly, ad free reading mode from any app or browser. My only gripe (otherwise it would be 5*) is that links are rendered in a mid-shade green, which is not great either for colour blindness or contrast. Can I suggest an optional High Contrast mode, where links are rendered in the standard text colour (white/black), but with a dotted (to differentiate from actual underlining) underline instead? This would be more accessibility friendly.

2025-10-22	Ti*****	The best way to listen to an article before Google destroys it with an AI summary. Listen to the article as the author intended. I have been using this app since 2018. Great job developers!
