Science News & Discoveries- NF for Android
Please remove sources from AFP and The Guardian. Most news are politically related, like leaders discussing about global warming, air pollution in China, and such. Not exactly science or related to scientific research I would say. Add more sources from Nature and other scientific journals.
In my previous review I promised that I would gladly change my review and give this app a 5 if some issues I reported were addressed. Well, I'm happy to say that the Newsfusion team not only acted on my concerns, they did so immediately and super-pleasantly! I've changed my rating to a 5, but honestly, they deserve a 10!!! Rare to see a company be so attentive to their customers! Thank you, Newsfusion Team!!!
Alerts 2:36am - spacex using florida launchpad is now a new era... Had app for 2+yrs. But since "You asked we delivered!" text started popping up (a few months?) every time it resets all options which turns notifications back on. 4AM I get woken saying zika is a little bit more understood or something. Fix this then 5 stars. At least turn notifications OFF by default. -Normal samsung S3!
Post political news all the time. Reason I got this app is because I'm a scientist and I don't like following the hate and gossip filled regular media. I'm uninstalling this and maybe I'll try in another year if the makers of this app have matured a bit.
Great app. The questions posed in the community section are often childish and not science related but that's no fault of the developer. Absolutely a must have
I like the app a lot and use the widget right on my home screen for quick information about interesting science news. Minor complaints are that some pages require you to sign up on sites outside of the app. And it seems like sometimes the comments I write don't post afterward. Other than that it's great.
Most of your sources are very good, quality, fact based news, but you have a source called 'Knowridge' that you desperately need to drop. The "news" that 'Knowridge produces is almost always easily disprovable pseudo-science, anti-drug propaganda. It doesn't matter if it's true or not. This company is clearly writing from a biased source with no actual facts to back up their claims in most cases. Most of it sounds like it's written from the perspective of a DEA agent trying to save his job. Get rid of your 'Knowridge' source, and you'll be just about perfect.
Amazing ! And a great science community to deal with day to day scientific news and a medium to show your thinking and contradictions regarding things.
No it's stupid
Its amazing
Nice app
Good
Had this app for a while, created an account etc. When it works, absolutely amazing app, does a great job of finding articles and sends me notifications of topics that I chose. However recently the app has become completely unusable; whenever I try to read an article (opening it on the in app browser) it will *always* load then change to a blank screen and say it is still loading, however it never does load! Therefore I deem this app useless, which is a shame; I used to love this app!
I used to love it. They had me make a profile so I could comment and be engaged. Then they changed so now I still need to have a profile with them but I also have to connect thru Google or Facebook. Not a fan. Why make me make a profile if what you really want is my social media footprint? It's a science news app that used to be about science and is now more political and left leaning and it's just ridiculous. And this is my revising my comment. You can use the profile you made me create to make sure users are acting appropriately. There is no need for you to require access to my Facebook when you already made me create a profile. And also... I email about this and got no response about a month ago. Not until I made a public review that I got a response from your company. Hmm..... shows where your priorities are.
It has interesting articles and some that make u question why they are on here. But overall good app. Just need to fix the reading steak. I read at least 1 or 2 articles everyday but cannot get a reading steak more than 2 or 3.
Love it. There's a forum that is actually active! The forum needs to be advertised so it can grow bigger. And it needs a few more subforums like "paleontology", "geology", "origin of life", etc... I hope they hurry up and get it where everyone can see everyone else's user profile and I can friend other users.
The app is good but the developer has become greedy and it is now bloated with adverts and even full screen advertisements that pop up after readying and article. This app doesn't even make its own articles, only links to others so I can't fathom why they need so many adverts
This is a terrible app. Stupid credit karma ad disenabled me from posting a comment.
Too many interstitial ads and injected ads. Often more than 60% or more, of the device screen is given over to ads, making basic tasks like scrolling difficult.
Have been using for over one year. Good source to be informed about how our race is progressing.
Wonderful, but in nightmode the headline texts are invisible on front page
Its amazing,good for people who like science.
Ads covering the screen - wholly unacceptable. Uninstalled.
Cool You can see the news that's going on right now in the world
I'm finding this to be a great science news aggregate app, quickly becoming my favorite, right behind SmartNews.
Best way to stay up to date on the most current and important science-based breakthroughs and plans for the future
I love being informed
It is a amazing app I could not find the app when I first had it but I'm so glad I found it.
It has gone down hill really fast.
A excellent way to make science interesting!!!!! Should be better if there was a search option for the articles..
Nice app for practice
Great but you should explain what points do
Very great app to improve our science knowledge
Great app!
It is super and helpful
informatice
Nice App
Excellent.
Love it
