Comments on The Spinoff for Android

★★★★★ Ben Jammin · Aug 21, 2018

Love the app but wish the share function shared specific articles, not the whole site. I would also love a search function. With these features missing I still love the Spinoff app and their journalism. Thanks for making the app free and for writing great, interesting, progressive articles

★★★★☆ Chris Titford · Apr 18, 2019

Updated the app and it's working fine. Now I can get back to that great content!

★★★★☆ Todd Williamson · May 2, 2026

A generally good app for reading the Spinoff. It would be great to if the "back swipe" on Android was updated to mean "back" on the Spinoff app, rather than "close app". It's the only app that has this as a feature and is jarring any time I try to go back to the home page.

★☆☆☆☆ James Penman · Jun 3, 2018

Crash city. Read the reviews and knew I was in for an unstable experience but I diddnt think it would lag heavily then crash while simply scrolling down the first screen shown! Support the Spinoff but don't support shoddy software.

★★☆☆☆ katherine troup · Jul 13, 2020

It's kinda pointless to have the app as you can't follow any in article links or use any of the interactive content but have to go to website instead. Articles are organized weirdly and difficult to search. The content is good but app is not
