## Review summary

Users praise BillBlaster for quick contact with representatives, bill research, and a simple, free interface, but many report stability issues, outdated data, privacy concerns, and missing state-level coverage. Some devices fail to load the app. Overall, it’s a valuable civic tool when functioning, but it needs data updates, broader coverage, and improved reliability.

### Pros

- Provides quick access to research bills and stay informed about pending legislation.
- Simple, well-organized, and easy-to-use interface/nav.
- Free to use.
- Links to representatives' social media accounts and phone numbers for fast outreach.

### Cons

- App frequently fails to load or freezes (circle of death / keeps spinning / nothing shows up).
- Information is outdated (lists of officials don't reflect recent elections).
- Privacy concerns: data harvesting and use of third-party analytics (Google) raise privacy worries.
- Lacks coverage for state-level officials (would be helpful to include state senators/representatives).
- Device compatibility issues: doesn't work on iPad or older iPhones / some devices.
