All round very nice
Ethan.S.M
The app offers much more customisation in terms of the interface. As well as that, the save feature is a life saver when in places with no wifi. The app is generally really nice. My only complaint, though this is more of a suggestion, is that there is no bookmark feature. Sometimes I close the app and I end up losing where I was reading which is definitely frustrating.But all in all, great app.
Font size more readable than web
Ariel-Ryukin
I love how I can make the font size larger, unlike on the web version which can be straining on the eyes after a while. Some suggestions: would it be possible to make the margins for full screen article view slightly narrower to make better use of the blank side bars?
The app is great ❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏾
