User Reviews

Users consistently praise Democracy Now!'s strong journalism and engaging content, and appreciate the easy navigation and access to live streams and podcasts. However, multiple reviews report major stability and performance problems: streaming pauses, rewinds, and buffering; the app frequently freezes or scrolls poorly; and several feature gaps are requested, especially push notifications and TV casting options (Chromecast/AirPlay/CarPlay). Landscape mode on iPad is also mentioned, but less frequently. Overall, the content is valued, but the user experience is hampered by reliability and feature gaps that many would like addressed in a future update.
Pros
  • High-quality journalism/content
  • Easy to read and navigate
  • Access to live streams and podcasts
Cons
  • Streaming instability and playback issues (pauses, buffering, rewinds)
  • App freezes, glitches, and scrolling problems
  • Missing push notifications
  • Lack of TV casting/streaming options (Chromecast/AirPlay/CarPlay)

Democracy Now! is my go to news source when I want to understand current events. News for the people, not corporate spin.

The ability to view and navigate my news through mobile focus UI is great. But, the lack of features compared to the site version stops me from keeping the app. To reinstall the app needs the ability to click headlines and main story transcripts while watching or listening.

I love democracy now, I wish I could get push notifications so that I’m informed throughout my day without having to open the app. Currently this version does not support it and I think it would be an excellent addition for people on the go!
