Vote 1 - Political Spectrum for Android
I like the app itself, but I think some of the questions are misleading for people near the bottom right corner. Specifically questions concerning corporations. I'm assuming pro-corporation answers give you a right-wing score, but libertarians see corporations as an authoritarian intrusion on the market. For better accuracy, I think you should replace "corporation" with "business" or change how those questions affect our score accordingly.
Statements often have no good answer since how i would approach them makes the statement largely irrelevant. Corperations are goverments unto themselves after they reach a certain size and the influence they have should be kept within their specialization in providing for society as should the national and state governments.
I love this app a lot. It is very accurate, I use this app all the time. It's fun to play around with also just to see what you get. If you are actually serious on learning your ideology, then be serious. I am happy to say that I got National Socialist. Some questions are a bit loaded, like the ones about Labor Unions, but other than that I can tell you that I love it. Also, if you could, could you put the books into a right wing, left wing, authoritarian, libertarian kind of sorting?
The only thing that needs to be changed would be left communism. It says that it is more democratic but this is untrue. Council communism within leftcom is more democratic but bordigism is not. Maybe split the left communist square between councilism and bordigism.
This app made rude and mean statements towards the Republicans. I do not recommend this app to anyone who respects each others political parties
The quiz very accurately placed me on the chart but I think there were some flaws in regards to the location of different political parties/politicians. I also don't like the questions that are pro-corporation because they do not necessarily reflect one's advocacy for or against free markets.
Very inaccurate. Ideologies are much more complicated than presented in reality, and on this app they aren't even put in the correct places. Also very wrong on worldwide political party positions. Overall misleading and over-simplified, does not understand subject matter.
The app is great, especially for finding out others political views. I would say only 2 or 3 questions are misleading. Also the library is very nice.
Really great app. A couple of ideas though. You should add more questions so the results become more specific (like a third level of questions) and maybe a bookmark feature for the books in the library.
The test itself is cool as it is able to accurately guess my beliefs from the questions it gave me, however the entire political chart concept is downright idiotic. With the way I think, I apparently fit into three separate categories equally, therefore there is no group that suits my beliefs.
Questions seem to have been framed by Trotsky's restless ghost, it is so leftified. You missed a question; "Socialism is the best thing evar".
The test is too short to accurately predict any political spectrum. Many qestions are leading and often lean left. The map is nice but even that has some weird placements.
The questions and square get me in the right general area, but the location of the subsections and where political parties reveal the biased stance of the creator so 2 stars
Although the test is cool I feel that the map at the end is slightly innaccurate as well as some of the political party positions. However the 18 books provided are great and I read them regularly off the app.
The only thing that prevents this from being a 5-star app is the lack of substance (primarily in reading material) in the app. Otherwise it is well made
It's almost accurate enough. It put me just outside of the ideology I identify with, and I had to tap on the map to view it.
Please add a pros and cons list on certain issues and how the left, right and middle view things thank you great app
Finally found what political ideology I align myself with. I found it quite accurate. Now I can say I'm part of the left populist lot.
Very in depth, my favorite feature is the "library" of texts related to the different ideologies, I'm sure this is helpful to some who may not really know what their political beliefs are
The only reason that this has any low reviews is because of conservatives who can't comprehend being anything other than conservative.
They need to add more questions like do you support gay people, abortions, ect.
They put fascism on the right even though its left ideology. If you read transcripts from Mussolini he even talks about how the democrats from the United States are fascist..
I think this can only get better by improving the interface itself and organizing better the library as well as adding more reading material. Anyway, I loved it and I recommended it!
Some names of the theories should be reformulated and repositioned in the political spectre. Anyways the quantity of sources is great and the design, simple and intuitive.
Fairly accurate, I identify as a Libertarian, and it puts me in that area, Classical Liberalism, Populism, or Libertarianism are the categories I am always placed in, good app, I recommend it to expand your political ideologies and discover new beliefs and parties.
Not accurate. Classical liberals are center left, not right
Many of the questions are leading. The map is more useful than the quiz.
A must have app for all modern screaming-red bearded socialists who for no reason call themselves democrats or eu liberals and trumping religious nationalists who think they are conservatives.
I didn't know they had books too!
Good idealogical map. Accurate and unbiased.
Fun factor is there but so is the unreliability.
Includes all the classics and a political spectrum. Good way to read books that would normally put you on notice by the government.
I like it although there could be more questions to further solidify my political preferences.
Cool app. First of its kind. Awesome books. The political spectrum is quite accurate, but could be even more accurate.
Easy to use, gives accurate results, and has lots of information. What more could you ask for?
Fun and let's you explore different ideologies and the books that shaped them.
The collection of free political books is wonderful and really make this app shine above others like it.
Great! Because the result often represents me
Quite Accurate

A thorough set of questions that accurately seives out your political position and educates you about it and on other political positions without being judgmental. However, I think the app developers should change how some of the political parties/factions are placed on the chart. For example, the Bernie wing of the Democratic party should be more left than it is placed now. Perhaps in the Democratic Socialism column where the Labour Party in the UK is. Also, the "mainstream" Democratic party should be placed squarely in Social Liberalism rather than on the fence between Social and Classical Liberalism. Hope the developers read this and make the necessary adjustments
