Pros and cons of InoTechNews tech news app for iPhone and iPad

InoTechNews tech news app good for

This app is really cool. You need information about technology? You got it whenever you want. Every important sites at the same place. For me this is very useful.

Would be a 5 star app if it wouldnt crash or give low memory errors when attempting full views. With the exception of that, I love this app. I would have to say it is my most used news app around. To me it is almost perfect.

I use this app all the time on my 32 GB iPhone 4, and it works very well. I came to the iTunes store to send a link to it to a friend, and was amazed that there were any bad reviews! I had to write this one to let iPhone 4 owners know how well it works! Even multitasking with 5 or 6 app in the background I dont have any of the issues described in the bad reviews. Its very handy to have everything in on place!

If the developers rewrite the app to handle memory properly, it will be a five-star app. Until then, expect that only about half the stories will actually load for you. Update: the update seems to have fixed memory handling. VERY nice app now!!

This app is a must have for tech junkies! Excellent selection of news, reviews and opinions.

Now this is more like it! I used to read gadget junkie faithfully and with IOs 4 it vanished. I took a chance with Inotech and I am very happy so far!

Some bad moments

Would be great if i could open an article without it crashing gizmodo.

Works well and has a lot of great tech sites included. Would also be great if it would switch to Portrait View in full mode.

It was ok before the last update, now it throws "low memory warning" messages and crashes. New icon is even uglier on retina display too.

Great app but low memory/crash is a deal breaker!!!!! Fix it!!!!!

crashes on ios 5. Completely unusable hopefully a fix will be released soon and Ill happily update my review.

Since the last app update, this app will not load, therefore I give it a low rating. When it worked (past tense) it was very good and I would give this app 4-5 stars.
