What are users saying about Drudge Reader

Y70%
by Y####:

Very clean as other's have stated, also as others have stated small fee no ads

C70%
by C####:

Much better than the website in terms of speed and user friendly access. On the website you have links to articles that have a ball and chain of scripts, ads and tracking cookies; slow. This app has listing of articles on left (for tablets) and the article itself on right, photos included. All presented in a uniform standard font and format, with very few exceptions. Ads are shown along with article links but few and far between and low profile. Looking forward to more tweaks for even smoother function.

Seems like a solid, bare bones app to consume Drudge content. I love the use of Readability to present the pages. I'd be willing to pay a small fee to get rid of those ads in the scrolling feed, though.

Ads take over app. I'd give it a zero if I could

Just what you need, nothing you don't. No images, just stories although I can appreciate Matts humorous images to coincide with the stories. Perfect app. Great work. Running on both my tab and Gs4.

H70%
by H####:

Most Drudge app developers start out with nice apps and over time they keep updating, tweaking and messing them up until they are unusable and irritating. I have been using android drudge apps for years. This app is super nice, fast and beautiful. Hope the developer sticks to it and keeps it awesome.

S70%
by S####:

It's very annoying that the main page does not hold place when returning from a linked article. You have to repeatedly scroll down aftet every return. The new format is nice, but much more resource inensive than the text based format. It would be nice to able to choose. Update 8/24/2014: I had to uninstall, it was using so much of my phone's resources the phone was slowing to a crawl or freezing up.

I've used this app for about a year on my S4 and it used to work flawlessly. Now the last several days when trying to launch it just goes to a black screen. I uninstalled and reinstalled but the problem persists. I sure hope the problem gets fixed soon because I already miss it!
