    Just got off the phone with Mike because I was having some issues with updates- he called me back within a 24 hour Period. He walked me through my issue and corrected it all with a manner of minutes. This app is a wealth of information needed for those that work in Washington DC or those that may be interested in contacting their Member of Congress. There are tons of extras under the more section, making it even more worthwhile to have this app.

    It’s a good app but does not work on Apple Watch 7. Please fix! It worked well with my prior SE Watch. Fix this and I’ll give it 5 stars.

    I wrote an email to the Cohen Research Group and was extremely please to receive a reply within minutes with the answer to my question. I’ve used their apps for a very long time and have not been disappointed.
  • Great app, well designed layout, efficient, sufficient, and accessible with voiceover

    This app is indispensable for me. I use it for member info, and committee lists. Of course The basics like a brief biography and bill sponsor and cosponsor information is also available. It has enough detail to be useful, and it is very efficiently designed which is very useful when you need information fast. What makes the app stand out is the technical and information support. Michael Cohen has always responded immediately to any requests or corrections that I have offered. I don’t know of many other apps that I use that have support that is so quick and responsive. And for those who care about accessibility, it works very well with voiceover.
  • 117th update problems

    Fantastic app, thank you to the tram who built it. Sadly, when I click “update” in the App Store or on my subscription page or inside the app, it won’t update to the 117th Congress. In the app, updating does nothing, other than to tell me my subscription will renew a month from now. In the App Store, clicking “update” appears to download something quickly, then starts over, the second tome downloading a larger file. The update repeatedly stops at about 60%. App Store app stops the download and the button reverts to “update”. What do we need to do to update to the new Congress?
  • An excellent public service!

    Packed with data, easy to use and regularly updated. Members, committees, biographies, staff, contact telephone numbers, links to congress.gov for all legislative activity and much more - even floor plans of the Congressional office buildings. If you want to navigate Congress, this will be your go-to application.
  • Best Resource for Government Affairs Professionals in DC. Period.
