Ratings and Reviews
I have a Samsung S23 Ultra with the latest updates. The app loads and installs well. You answer a few background and area of interest questions and then you switch to a screen with floating icons which appear to represent the curated stories. While the quality of the graphics is great, it's a shame that tapping on them fails to open, well anything. Hopefully this gets fixed.
App loads and asks 1 or more questions about your background with the military and then says that you are all set and you move to a page with 2 rows of what assume are the articles that are available at this time. the problem is that you can't select any of the items that scroll on the screen. I have a Samsung S24 Ultra running the latest version of everything. I have uninstall the app a couple of times but no change in the outcome. Also, the last time I tried to load it, it was hard to find
not working
Excellent coverage of topics of interest.
Ive been waiting for this app for Android for so long! Unfortunately, after choosing all the categories and the next screen says "You're All Set", there is no orange button below to click to move forward. Please fix, Ive been looking forward to this app.
Same issue as the other one star reviews. Open, pick military affiliation and some interests, and then it just gets stuck :/ I uninstalled it and reinstalled it just in case and that doesn't work.
