Great

I was going to write this review half an hour ago but got lost in a line of quizzes...

I've listened to most of the pod casts and I love them all. As for the app, it only wants me to take quizzes. There is a quiz tab, but they invade every single other thing on the app. No more quizzes. Please, separate the stories and articles from the quizzes...

App keeps knocking me off

CLDees

I love the Podcast and decided to try the App. The topics look interesting but the app keeps knocking me off.

Horrible!

I have had a terrible experience with both the website and the app. They both provide good information but in an unreadable format. There are so many horizontal bar ads on the webpage I could not find the instructional text among them. The app provides a search bar but it does not retract once the search is successful. Instead it takes up one third of the page, causing content to resize itself with graphics becoming covered by text. I went to the website to solve this problem, but the website contains no instructional information for their products. Instead, it points to a FAQ sheet, which is actually no help at all. In fact, I disliked this product so much that have taken the last 30 minutes of time I should be doing repairs to sit and write this review, thus wasting my own time. It is good information presented in an unusable format. I would give it no stars if I could.

Keeps shutting down!!

This app used to be great but everytime I try to play something it kicks me off and closes it!? Please fix this??

Crashes constantly

Love SYSK and thought downloading the app would be an easy way to catch up on old episodes. Boy was I wrong. Doesn't make it 3 seconds into a show/video/audio before it crashes and kick you out of the app. Deleting app, not worth the space.

This is a fun and educational app. I like the wide variety of topics.

Crashes too often ?

It pains me to say this, because I honestly love this app (it's got a great interface and it's nice when it works) and howstuffworks.com overall, but the darn thing always crashes when I open it. It didn't use to do this before! Now the app is practically unusable and that makes me very disappointed. Please fix this!

Crashes too much.

I've been listening to SYSK podcast for a very long time and decided to get the app for articles and such. Got it last night and opened it today, the app crashes every time I do a search. Plain and simple. This makes the app kind of useless because I like looking up older podcasts to get more info. Pleas fix!!

It's really too bad, but...

This promising app is -currently anyway - completely & totally unusable. Zero Stars, though I had to click one. It won't stay open after ANY attempt to get beyond the first "page", NONE of the links along the bottom work, rebooting had zero effect on performance (or "non performance...") so I gave up. I recall it actually functioning at one time (long ago) but it now is trying to do WAY too much, heading in lots of directions but stumbling and falling on the first step for all of them. At this point I long for the ancient BOOK: "How Things Work" Please, try doing less, but do it well...I might check back later or I might just toss the app, I'm still pondering. If the developers would give me any hint of being aware of the problems and working on them I would hang on to it for a while, but...
