App is not running.
As I am opening it, the app is crashing and closing. 

It’s great app for good read, learn something new and latest news. I wish to rate it 5 but rating it 3 because of the crashing issue.

### *---- "No explore section in the app"
Where is the “Explore” section in the app?
-- Jamesckhl, 2024-11-02

### **--- "Worst Authentication mechanism"
I never seen this kind of authentication anywhere because even when I login with password, app is sending a mail with a link to click on to again access to the content . You are kind forcing to install my email client app in my tablet which I already have in my phone

### ***** "This app is like the only productive social media app that exists!"
I’ve been using this app since I bought this phone, it is like social media for nerds/ ppl who read. 
But unlike other social media this develops good habits like - reading, writing blogs, learning new things…
And also surprisingly this makes reading articles and posts( notes) fun…
       So overall its a good app if this is what you are looking for.
-- ~vysh, 2024-08-31

### *---- "Wrong information for increasing users"
I went through the lengthy process of signing up only to know that the post which was to be unlocked on signing up then again shows available to paid customers only. If it was supposed to be that should have mentioned that initially itself so that i wouldn’t have to signup.
-- Notmeees, 2024-08-30
