Stash for Android
I really like stash and use it a lot, but the app is pretty bad. It keeps crashing in the background (btw, what does it need to do there?) and now it logged me out, which means I need to open my laptop, unlock my pw manager and type in my pw here. Further minor annoyance is that after adding a tag, the keyboard closes and it makes adding tags pretty slow.
Please don't download this app. And I beg you, don't pay for a subscription. Just file Stash in the back of your mind and forget about it, just like Stash does with all of your bookmarks. Stash - the service - sounds perfect. It does everything Pocket and Instapaper do, but with one additional, amazing feature: you can set reminders to read individual articles, and you get a weekly digest of everything you saved! Stash, the service, is built to help you actually READ the links you collect! But Stash - the app - is horrible, broken, ugly, and more. It constantly freezes in the background (what is it even DOING in the background?). The Settings "menu" tells you to go to your browser, without the decency to even provide a link. The navigation is confusing. The text is hard to read. Buttons overlap each other. I could live with all that... But guess what? THE REMINDERS DON'T WORK. I don't think I've gotten even one reminder on my phone. Since October. I've given Stash the benefit of the doubt so far, attributing its problems to the growing pains of a beta product, but now that it charges a monthly fee it doesn't deserve those considerations. The sad part is that I still REALLY want Stash to succeed. In spite of all my vitriol, I'm paying the subscription, praying that they'll fix this mess. But don't make my mistake. Hit back, turn around, do NOT pass go. Please don't download this app.
Needs some polishing, but seems to work fine for me. Update: Sadly the share extension has stopped working for me. It hangs whilst 'analysing'.
First they force you to get customers for them to be able to use the free version and when you've done your part and got resources for them, then they decide to make you pay for it. Great customer service
I'm really excited about this app, however, I cannot register for it on my Sony Xperia Z3 compact without it crashing. Is it possible to look into this?
The app won't let me register for an account. Keeps crashing.
would not let me register
No longer works. I have the paid subscription. Will be unsubscribing.
Almost the perfect Pocket replacement. I can overlook the obvious iOS design cues if the snooze feature gets more attention. I'd like to set morning and evening to any time, not just the ranges offered, in addition to some intervals like 30 minutes or an hour or two. The ability to snooze to a location (Home or Work) would be nice as well.
Android proposes a set of clear design and UX rules that *all other apps follow. It's not obligatory, but it's definitely something worth looking at. Implementing anti-patterns everywhere just for the sake of being different doesn't really fit into the whole AI-centric story.. you spent so much time customizing the app.. so much that I can't see anything else. It's difficult to navigate, wierd to search for stuff and definitely looks a lot like iOS. Making us wait doesn't help either. My first impressions..
Its main characteristic doesn't even works. It can't even save me that one extra second on categorising the page! The design is clearly made for iOS and that makes it unconfortable. The app delivers the same experience as pocket but ten times worse and even unstable. My advice is not to install this app at the moment. Its far from being a former competitor to pocket. Definetly not worth it.
I've invested like a 10 minutes before app notified me that it's unavailable in my country... Shame!
App regularly crashes randomly when it's just running in the background. Weird that the manual add link button is secondary to the search function.
Nice all, especially for reading articles. Yes there's a waiting list, but it doesn't take long. The premise is really cool, but needs some work.
Lol
Keeps closing on nougat. Need a fix.
Not even close to ready...Even for testing.
Cannot register
Hard to assess merits while on the waiting list for a month...
Crash a lot
Given this is a relatively new app, it's very good and certainly does its job better than competitor apps. What I would like to see is image preview of bookmarks, and colours on your stashed items. Otherwise I am really enjoying Stash!
Unable to register. App should be mentioned as early access
As of this writing, the cross-device features of the service don't work, this app is pretty minimal, and it doesn't appear to be under active development. It's certainly not worth $2 a month. The so-called priority support consisted of one email with a link to a help file, and then nothing.
Crashes pretty much constantly even when not in use. I had to uninstall it to get rid of the constant crash notifications
I've been on the waiting list for month and I continuously received crash notifications when I hadn't even opened the app
Embarrassingly poor app. To think they make you sign up for a waiting list for this!
Ad crashes on YouTube video. App crashes after downloading. Waste of time.
Good, but needs Material Design
Good idea but soon to cost $3 a month LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL - not likely!
Registered via email invite then downloaded app from playstore. Trying to log in get an error message saying user doesn't exist please try again I am already logged in via mobile browser. Please help
For all complaining about the registration, is a wait list. Once you get to your turn an email will let you to register.
The app is good to organise bookmarks and cross device usage is good. But the app has a poor design and also does not allow sharing without synced contacts. I do not want to sync my contacts, so please make a way to share links through. Overall, if you're a person who bookmarks pages a lot, I'd recommend this.
When I open the app it asks for my email and password. Once entered it says user not found. I figure I put the password incorrect so I try to reset password. It sends link to reset but then still doesn't find my account. Had it open for a few on the Web but tried logging out to see if it found my account that way and again can't log back in. Seems like a good idea but garbage in the execution.

I just got my invite and started installing it to try it. i put it on my tablet (lenovo yoga book) and it forces vertical mode. Please make a more tablet/ horizontal friendly version.

Registration is limited, what's point bring it to play store if no one can use it!!!!!!
Crap app. Waiting list? First app that ive encountered with waiting list
Can't register. Totally useless.

Well it kind of worked for a while, although it crashed daily. Then one day it stopped completely with no warning. Edit: Actually come to find out that the only way to continue using Stash is through a subscription. No warning, just one day, oops now you pay. Really? For an app that was buggy the entire time and really offers nothing "special" that other apps don't give? Sorry Stash, you think too highly of yourself.
