I love the spinoff. It's factual with clearly demarcated opinion is great. But is till find I access it more on facebook. Have you thought about doing a daily feed similar to the way you present articles on facebook?

I like it overall, but I wish I could increase the text size, and maybe save articles to read later, make sure I don't lose track. Notifications for when a new article gets posted would also be good.

Superb content. Would be great if links from Facebook or Twitter opened in the app, as this is how I get to most stories and means I still end up using the website.

I bought this to support local journalism and avoid the trash that is Stuff.co.nz, NZHerald, and NewsHub. The app is a bit buggy with how it handles RAM, appears to get stuck momentarily if you scroll too fast.

Big chunks of text fail to load on Samsung Galaxy J5, below anything embedded like video/tweets

Bought the app to support The Spinoff's great work. It's a really nice app, love the clean article format

Content is great, obviously, it's the reason I bought the app. But why not have a scroll bar or some other way to show progress when reading an article? I would also love the option to save to read later and the absence of this function means I'll probably just keep reading on my browser in my many open tabs.
