icitizen App Reviews

I like yo version of the app it was simpler to use and understand and I dont like that you removed the religion section

I loved this app before the update. The articles were more interesting and the polls were simple but not always well written. Now all I see are HuffPo and ABC articles, and buried polls that presume you already know the backstory to (like Iowa farming initiatives)... and lose the orange and go back to red, white, and blue too.

Why are there polls about the State of the Union 3 weeks after and will be there for the next 15 weeks? No way to contact the webmaster or submit questions. The ability to breakdown demographics is awesome but they need to do some tweaking

Full of bugs, for instance swiping to pick categories after a while crashes the app. Also swiping works poorly and is annoying.

The app is based on a great idea - making government more accessible and responsive to the people. However, the app minimizes when attempting to share stories from the app without completing the share. It does nothing when attempting to add a photo to my profile and occasionally crashes with no warning. Needs serious work to be useful.

This would be great if it were accurate. I believe I am running. The most current version (however in the current app I cant tel the version number). One of my state representatives is listed twice, another is listed without an email address, and yet another hasnt been in the state legislator for at least one term. Please update the data for washington state. Thanks.

i use a iphone 5 (maybe thats too old) but i was unable to swipe left, right or select... interesting app for what i could see (great idea) but useless to me-- i will try it again when i upgrade my iphone--

Best app out there

Really love the idea of learning more about local officials, but I found the app to be far too buggy and confusing to use properly. It crashed on me twice, then I uninstalled it. Id consider re downloading it in a few months when the developers have fixed these issues.

Whoever runs this app should be fired. Its astounding how bad it is. Not only is it worse than the old version in terms of functionality, but it has huge stability issues (crashes every 15 seconds). Do the technology people here know technology? I just have no idea what to do with the app. So confusing,and so buggy. Ive never written an App Store review before, but this app makes me want to warn people against it. It astounds me that ANYONE could rate this 5*. I bet some of those reviews are from the companys own staff members -- I wish Apple had a way to see that, or to not let them post. Start over folks. Or at least find a person or two who knows what theyre doing. This app is needed -- just not this attempt.

Was an amazing app until the obviously turned it Left.... All democratic views!

It has crashed three times now when I was selecting my interests. I cant even make it past that screen to start using it. It seems like it is horribly buggy compared to what everyone else is saying too.

Any app that requires two separate logins should be deleted immediately. I had to sign in with Twitter or Facebook, then you have to create a username. So dumb. Delete immediately.

Another app stuck in the phone mode. Why can it not rotate to landscape so those on tablets with keyboards can USE IT..

I hate the new version. The old version was orders of magnitude better! If this version hangs on then Im opting out.

Really disappointing. Lets get beyond the usability issues the other reviews complain about, and talk about actual functionality. There isnt anything useful I can do on this app. The news feed is pretty uninteresting, and aside from polls there isnt much else (Im not sure what issues are but they look a lot like polls). I guess the polls are okay, but the data analytics afterward are terrible. Extremely hard to compare results for things I would actually care about (like democrats vs conservatives). Some possibly useful stuff. Mostly junk.

Good app to help keep up with whats happening and helps to sort out whats relevant.

This app is a political game changer. Love the interaction and news compilation functions. The polls are entertaining.

Love the new features. Cant wait to see whats next

Recent updates have fixed several issues, but its getting better. Upgraded review from 1 to 3 Stars. Its getting better.
