    Tabs/buttons are no longer visible for navigation. All RSS feeds accessible by tapping around the blank areas blindly are disabled. This app should be removed from the App Store.
  • Almost perfect

    When I click on half of the tabs it just says “Failed to find RSS” which gives me the impression that the app is void of half of the available content. Other than that I love it, I’m glad they came out with an app for sociology.

    I am a sociology major. Frankly, I can't get enough of the stuff and this little app is perfect for people like me. There is something in it for everyone and I mean everyone. Want to find a list of the latest relevant reading? It's here. Looking for a good peer reviewed article? Look no further. If you're simply looking for a quick read or some brain food to add more meaning to your day, you've come to the right place. Thank so much for creating such a great app!

    Thought provoking and engaging content. Sociological lens is a must read section. It updates fairly frequently so read them before they're gone.

    I wish this app allowed you to store your university affiliation info within it, so you didn't have to backtrack as much to find the articles full text via your university library database system every time. Other than that, very informative and worth the hassle!
  • Great app!

    This app is a great resource providing current abstracts and articles from numerous journals. I'm a PhD student and I love being able to browse current abstracts then add them to my reading list :)

    This is a great app to have if you teach sociology or are just interested in this fascinating field. From articles to reviews, this app will help you locate whatever sociology-related info you need! It has saved me a tremendous amount of time preparing for my high school classes. I highly recommend it and would pay for all the benefits. Since it's free, download now.
