I love the concept of this app and the features given, but it fails to work for some reason. The home page is way zoomed in. If you navigate away from the home page, the navigation buttons no longer work. The top right button to customize your options pulls up a shrunken half window that doesn't work. I went through ever possible phone setting and app setting with no success. I hope to see this broken app fixed soon so I can reinstall.

Hi Shawn-Dedric, thanks for trying Perigon! We've recently published a new version that should have fixed the issues you mentioned. Would you mind giving the app another try by updating or reinstalling the app? We appreciate your support!

Nice goal in concept. But too many clicks to read a piece. And app has now twice read my clipboard without my prompting when copying text from an article read outside of gawq... I know this as when opening gawq at a later time, it shows me the clipboard text and asks my opinion as if I'd attempted to submit an issue. The first time I thought it was my finger slip. But second made it clear the app is acting strange. I didn't grant any permissions yet and, given this, don't plan to register.

Hi April! Thank you for your feedback. We've listened to all of the feedback & made many adjustments since you last tried Gawq in December. In the new version, you can click the article headline & jump straight to the story. It's much faster! Regarding the clipboard issue: this should only happen whenever you have a story active on your screen.

I have never seen more buggier app than this, you can't go back to home page if you go to search/profile page🤦‍♂️. You know the app is bad when they show you your muted topic at the top🙄. Besides this the app is soooo slowwww 🐢. It give me no internet connection error when my internet is perfectly fine. The slowest, buggiest and most unreliable news app award goes to GAWQ.

Hi Kima, I'm bummed to hear that you had so many issues with the app. We've recently refactored many parts of the app and rebranded under a new name 'Perigon'. There will be additional updates in the coming weeks that should improve performance even more. Would you be open to giving the app another try? We appreciate your support!
