Comments on Groundhog Usenet Reader for Android

★★★★★ The Best Avail. for Text Groups Better than the Google Groups interface, IMO. A "collapse all threads" option might be nice... and "Go to first unread." But maybe it's best left as is... simple, no bloat.

★★★★★ Very good effort, needs some work, but best reader for Android overall

★★★★★ No sorting capability Works okay until you realize you can't sort it, not even by date. Please fix. However, other than that, it is a good client.

★★★★★ Not perfect, but overall the best Android usenet reader available. The author is very responsive to feedback and comments.

★★☆☆☆ Not what a news reader should be. Downloads entire bodies instead of headers, fails in spring threads. Have a look at the late David Wong's work on SourceForge for ideas on making this right.

★★☆☆☆ Simply doesn't work. Connects to news server but can't find newsgroups

★★☆☆☆ RETARDED! Only downloads full articles, not just headers. Downloads OLDEST articles first. Takes FOREVER to get to current articles. Optimus V

★★☆☆☆ Crashes while threading groups. Unusable on my milestone. Happened after banning some authors in a group if that helps any. No BG fetch. No unread #.
