I generally like the app, although the subscription is quite expensive. However, I have issues with listening articles, in most of them it doesn't work and it's still stuck in one I listened to a month ago. There is also somehow lack of diversity in topics, I miss more on biology related feeds while there are many about one same topic (loose weight drugs). Those could be grouped together so my feed feels less cramped with the same topics.

The app works great as a magazine but I have two main complaints, one about the content and one about the app navigation. First, how can you display articles without showing the publication date? I have no idea if the article is relevant today. Second, there's no navigation that takes me straight to the homepage. I have to keep going back and back and back. Please add a home button on every page.

Nice app, useful articles that are handy to keep up to date with science. The dark mode remains buggy though, as figure titles and axis labels are not visible. Please add: - The Earth, Chemistry, and Society sections, which are only available if you log in with a Web browser but not via the app (I have subscribed via the web not through Google Pay) - Dates to articles. They are shown if reading articles in a browser but not in the app.
