As a Founding Member, I just want to say how grateful I am for the work you all do. I listen to the podcasts every day and read the newsletters faithfully, and now the new app makes everything so much easier to access. Having all of this thoughtful journalism and analysis in one place is such a gift. It’s a huge improvement over trying to follow everything through email or Substack. Thank you for the care, integrity, and consistency you bring to the news and for keeping me sane!

I love the Bulwark and it's so much easier to access their content here than from Substack
★☆☆☆☆Dawn Iwamasa· May 17, 2026
I love The Bulwark's content, but this app is a joke. I find myself using Substack to watch videos because it has better features. I suspect the developers are more concerned with iOS and don't spend the same time or resources on Android. Those of you who want better functionality need to rate this app super low to get the attention of the developers. Otherwise, they see that it is still rated high (4.9 right now) and not do anything about it. I've reached out to their "support" with no respons.
