## Review summary

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.

### Cons

- Streaming instability and playback issues (pauses, buffering, rewinds)
