Not good, buy a real app


Blank screen
swampbaby985

Last update made it worse now whenever I leave the app and return to it it just shows a blank screen. Also the app still crashes randomly and more often when I click on links within the article. Was my favorite app, was used daily. Please fix ASAP!!


Disappointment, lots of it...
Sir glidus

So I updated and was happy it worked. I even posted a 5 star review as I loved using this app. Now the issue is a white screen that happens every time I close the app and reopen it. I have to reopen the page to access anything. The only reason it has more than 1 star is that I can at least use the app as annoying as it is. Fix this for 5-stars.


Glitch

Used to be a near-perfect application (only missing tabs). Now it's glitchy, a blank white screen greets you upon startup. Hope it's fixed soon.


Needs fixing

Used to be great, but now greeted with a blank screen upon startup.


There's a bug

With multitasking, when you return to the app it shows a blank page. Please fix.

I like main language setting because I look up two languages often. This also put additional language list at the end of the table of contents, which ia nice It would be perfect if it has internal browser. Thank you for the good app.


Please fix the blank screen

I have to agree with the others, the blank screen when you multitask is a pain and even more so when you have to scroll down like twenty paragraphs or more to find where you left off
