2018-02-27 Jamison Young After i made a bad review. The site kept on trying to force me to login. I would open my facebook page, and every time i would open a new page the login page from this site would pop out at me. If this is how they deal with negative press, what to think. Avoid this app. Protect your privacy.
2017-12-28 Derek Ottman Requires signing up with email and password... except the create account page says "please fill out all fields before proceeding", when ALL the fields ARE filled out. So, it's useless. A virtual brick. Expected better of something done by Yale.

Is ok in that the articles it shows are often outside of my normal reading style, but it has several annoying features, the main one being that every time I restart my browser and then go to facebook, I get a login window for this app. Also, when I do get shown an article that I'm not interested in reading, I keep seeing the same article until i give in and click on it to make it go away.

Doesn't insert anything into my Feed. Suspiciously makes me signup with my email and a password when there's nothing necessitating either to insert stories into Facebook. Does not work. Scam?

App doesn't slow down Facebook and Chrome functionality and shows me article outside of left-leaning news outlets.
2017-05-26 A Google user Clicking the links that are inserted into my Feed redirects me back to my Facebook feed, rathar than the article. Kind of defeats the purpose if I can only read headlines but not the actual articles. Would rate higher if fixed.

2016-11-27 Calley Wang Would be nice in addition to articles ABOUT certain groups, have positive articles from WITHIN the group you want to better understand. I highly doubt that Republicans are sharing very many pieces from the New York Times or the Guardian on a regular basis. Would be nice to get some conservative news sources.
