Minimal, easy to read

By dsshap (Pcmac user)

Could use a scroll bar for the longer articles, hard to tell progress.
Nice app and elegant details

By smallapps (Pcmac user)

Nice app as a developer it could add more features and make app more usable. I am curious about whether there has a designer in your team or it is a just developer who covered all of the design and development’s work.
Good till it crashes

By oliverbs (Pcmac user)

It is fairly easy to crash. When you tap on an article and nothing returns back from server, you tap on the globe to view non reader version of it and it crashes. Review it as 1 star primarily wants to get attention from the developer as I know folks only track 1 star reviews. If this fixed, I'd rate 5 stars.
Love the minimal UI

By taobaoislife (Pcmac user)

But hope I have more options for default page (article/comment) and default view mode (text only/normal).
