I used to love this app, but ever since I got a new phone, it's ceased to work. Constant force closes rendered this app completely useless. Please fix ASAP! (Reviewed using a T-Mobile Galaxy Note 5.)

This app was never very great but, It at least linked you to the webpage articles. Now the app tries to act like a direct web browser, only it does the task exceptionally poorly. This stuff isn't very hard folks. Are the interns writing the playstore app?

It's making me blind Love the articles and Reason Foundation in general, but the size of the type is making me blind. Maybe it's not rendering correctly or missing a style sheet? For that reason I can't read it on the bus

Disappointing Please invest in a better version. I will freely and peaceably exchange up to $5 with you for a version that allows me to change the text and background colors (to night mode), and to remove the blinking banner ads. They hurt my eyes, not my principles.

Blog part recently stopped working In the past few days, the blog entries stopped appearing. Now just see "Loading". Reboot and reinstall did not fix. Also, I've always had to kill the app and rerun to see updated content. Moto X

Great philosophies. Can't get past ads Uninstalled. Reason is a great organization but couldn't read an article because it was locked behind an ad that wouldn't go away.

Useless with no comments If you cant pen your reasonable opinion, meh. I don't give much credence to publications that are afraid to hear from their readers.

UI Overhaul Needed App really needs some work. UI looks like it is quite a few years old. A paid ad-free version and this version would also be nice.

Johnny Mack May 30, 2016

Loading...loading...nothing All links just have loading. I like the site. Will end up ordering the paper magazine and not worry about the app.

Aaron Dancygier August 25, 2016

This app needs a rewrite Hire me, I will rewrite this. The libertarian moment is now invest in your app!

Matthew Garten June 25, 2015

Does not work Will not open links to comments within the application. Pretty much worthless.

Dnison Penndragon December 17, 2015

App no longer loads any content under Blog, Video, 24/7. Tried uninstall/reinstall, no go, it's toast.

Mike Bruschini September 4, 2014

The best! This is seriously a great app. I've been reading Reason's commentary for the past few years and I've become Reasonable!

Andres Alejandro Sanchez Jurado March 8, 2015

Font size and face changing, and night mode, would be great for an app mostly based on reading. But excellent app anyway, and great content.

Pave Stiletto October 3, 2014

Pornographic ads Was trying to read an article about the first amendment but was distracted by an ad with a naked woman's butt in my face.

cash foley April 9, 2015

Love Reason - Pay version please Please let me pay money to get rid of the Ads!

nathan penton November 19, 2014

MEH Its ok. But it lacks basic functionality such as being able to change the font size.

A Google User August 28, 2014

Great quality writing! Why does the app need access to my photos file?

Crimson Legacy August 17, 2016

Fantastic Magazine Unique, sane, and undeniably important views from some of the best journalism in the country right now.

David Englert December 4, 2013

Reason at my finger tips. An app the actually reduces the permissions it needs.

Paul Allers January 1, 2015

Great app great site Mainstream political religions driving me nuts.. Reason is a great neutral alternative.

Joseph P. Silvestri November 11, 2015

Best libertarian magazine! Nice to check daily stories

Thanks Koch Bros.

So little reason in the world, you need this

Joscelyne Ouellette November 4, 2013

The best!!!

John Holmes February 14, 2013

Tiny text I can't make the text big enough to read without magnifiers. No better than the Facebook app. I'm dumping it now

Aryan Ameri January 17, 2013

Terrible on Tablets You're much better off just putting Reason into Flipboard or Google Currents or something like that. Really this adds no functionality that would require a separate app. And it looks decidedly poor on my 10" tablet

Secretly Judge the law! As jurors it's your right Awesome,07/11 about criminal injustice issue must read.fight prosecutors with plea bargain strikes.prosecutors usually care more for conviction than justice that's how they move up despite innocence.

Brent Riley January 16, 2013

Good publication. Bad app. Can't increase type size. The inerface is ugly and dated. Rather use the RSS feed.

A Google User October 11, 2012

EXCELLENT! absolutely awesome. in past iterations, there were text issues, but the update seems to have remedied the situation.

James Treat July 15, 2013

Handy but needs larger text Nice way to keep up with what is happening at Reason. But the text is tiny. How about giving us something larger than 4 pt?

A Google User November 5, 2012

Great content, what with the text size?? I love the content on Reason, but why is the text so REDICULOUSLY small?? Both the app and the mobile site have text I can barely read, and I have decent eyesight. Seriously wtf?

A Google User November 1, 2012

Must read! Reason makes you "Reason"!

Joe Roets November 30, 2012

excellent! tons of content... (: stuff worth reading :)

A Google User October 7, 2012

Works well No problems so far.

A Google User September 29, 2012

Easy article access The format works great: nothing fancy, just nicely utilitarian and quick. Only complaints are: (1) crashes regularly upon return from web-format articles (after following a read-whole-article link); and (2) formatting for the app regularly squishes words together, deleting spaces.

A Google User August 29, 2012

Crashes Great mag but the app refuses to load too often. Also the type runs words together often in the blog section. Content is terrific so hopefully the problems will be fixed.

A Google User October 4, 2012

Great! I love this app and news source! The only issue is the reflow on the text sometimes removes spaces, but clicking on the origins link takes you to the site where it's good
