Very easy to navigate and find your states bills and representatives and so far it hasn't charged me for any services, so it would appear it's free which is hard to find with good apps nowdays but I def like it so far
★★★★★Thatguy Craig· Aug 9, 2025
Does everything it says. Very well organized and easy to navigate. I would like an option to see both senate and house bills at the same time, so I can cross-reference them better. It would also be nice if dates were more visible before looking at details.
★★★★★Jacob Duchaine· Jan 16, 2026
Doesn't work. Tried to set it up, and it had me enter my email, then asked for my name and zip code, then asks for interests but no matter what you select it just said "An error occurred" then went back to its main screen. Closed, rebooted, changed networks, tried 3-4 times, but it doesn't work.
★★★★☆Morgan Lenfest· Aug 13, 2025
Much better since update, warily interested in the civic feature mentioned (dude I'm a poor american interested in bills that effect me I can't afford another monthly subscription.) expanding this to include EOs would be nice.
★★☆☆☆TL “MayBeeSheWrites” Johnson· Jul 7, 2025
Very minimalist, looks like a project app, basic information. Has great Potential and could be much, much better.
★☆☆☆☆Devin Nocterum· Nov 2, 2025
Deleting this app as I see that they are planning to use AI programs to summarize information. This is detrimental because it can lead to inaccurate information, and takes jobs away from writers and editors.
