Decent news feeds. App crashes on startup once a week, and it seems to loop back to the top story when you hit the news from 24 hours ago. But the selection of stories has me coming back.

What use to be a good but glitchy sci-fi magazine is now just an NBC Universal advertising tool. Post a comment not even slightly critical of one of there products, shows, or movies and the moderators remove it faster than a spam post

I've contacted SyFy Wire twice regarding the fact that, I cannot view any tweets or other social media they post. It's the only app I use that does this. It's slow, closes on its own daily, and extremely glitchy. Lowest rates app I've ever commented on. Seems ironic that a place known for science fiction can't produce a quality app in the 21st century.

Much improved over old Blastr app. I no longer need to keep 'hitting the button' multiple times to get a reaction to go to the article I'm trying to access.

I'm to the point where I rarely check this app like I do others. After 4-5 "recent" articles it starts to loop the same ones. Why I can't scroll down chronologically bewilders me. I don't want to see the same article come up over and over again when I'm looking for things I've missed. To make things worse, I can't even figure out how to comment. Get it together.

Glitchy and slow, and does whatever the hell it wants. I've tried with this app for YEARS waiting for it one day get better but it never does. Disappointing especially because it's sci-fi news which, would mean the audience would expect better.
