Phys.Org News App Reviews

to be well inform ,educated...

I thought this app would be worth $2 given my experience with the website...I think a $5 refund is appropriate for the frustration just trying to figure out the way the site is layed out.

Ive waited for a while now for this app to be fixed and it hasnt. It will not load. Please address this.

5 stars for content and 0 for the bug that doesnt let me access the content and 0 for the frustration caused. If you fix youll have 5 stars.

The content is amazing. With this app you get the latest in a wide array of subjects. I mean, there are hundreds of the latest science articles/journals to read. With that said, I am giving it two stars because of the fact that I am unable to access the information most of the time!! Im talking about...out of 26 tries to open the software Ill get through once. And thats with restarting my phone numerous times!! And yes. Ive re-installed the software serveral times as well. Its completely frustrating. If that problem was fixed, it would hands down get 5 stars.

This ap would be hands down my favorite because of the content, but do not waste your money. The more you use it the worse it gets. Mine has been stuck on one article for three days. The back button just disappeared to be replaced by edit. There is no way to return to the main menu or update articles. When you close and reopen it goes right back to where you left off...thats great unless you are stuck in pergatory.

this app wont load and closes it self after update it needs to be updated to fix the problems

Deleted V1.7 and reinstalled V1.8 and all is well that ends well. My favorite science news app has finally returned from the dead! I will always wonder why it took so long for this software to be fixed.

Navigation still gets lost sometimes and the only way to get back to the index is to reboot. Skip this, use the web app instead.

This is my favorite app. I love being able to customize the content. I dont experience the problems that others have reported. It works great.

This app stopped working at the very beginning dont waste your money on a piece on junk

3 for the articles, they put up good articles I love reading everything they put on but the 2 stars deducted is for the fact it doesnt want to open half the time it will just stay on the first screen but never take you anywhere!!!!

New version is much faster on the iPad but crashes all the time on my iPhone 4S. Too bad. Would have been 4/5 stars.

Phys Org has great science and tech news, but the iphone app works poorly. I often cannot even download the news, the app will open, sit for a bit, and then close. Please fix the app so that it actually works!

Need more work. But it is nice try anyway.

This is my favorite app! Truely well done

Im a fan of the site and content, but this app leaves a lot to be desired. Notably the math appears to be broken in the total tally as compared to each category and the Twitter integration is broken with no way to post (data connection times out) sign out or back in without deleting and reinstalling the app. To add further insult to injury, any "favorites" are lost in this process. This is a disgraceful execution of an app for a great website. If I was Physorg, I would ditch this developer entirely and start over with a new developer - one who also updates and provides a real mechanism for feedback instead of a hotline to the website. Two thumbs down - $5 poorly spent.

A great compilation of science news in one app but can really use a facelift in the design and function area.

If you love the sciences, this app is a MUST! Biology, Astronomy, Physics (etc., etc.)- you can customize the many categories according to your tastes. New stories are added constantly and can easily be shared. Now I dont have to seek out science news- this news is ALL about science! There are always new discoveries and fun findings to learn and share here. Makes the Sciences wonderfully accessible!

Good app, very handy, content manageable and readable. The Facebook "share" however does not allow edits of the posted text (yes, I would appreciate including my own two cents). No way to leave app feedback. The management of unread articles could be a little less klunky.
