Ratings and Reviews

Rating: 2.5/5 based on Less than 100 reviews

(*) is required

1 ★ used to work, now crashes after password entry.

1 ★ Crashes just after hitting enter. Unusable.

1 ★ Crashes after password entry

3 ★ But opening screen after login (Latest) just loops for a long time. When it finally does display the list of articles, the resulting screen indicates the article is unavailable. But accessing the articles via Archives works fine. UsingSays TF201 running Android 4.1.1

2 ★ The app works and shows current articles but is pretty sad. The articles list isn't sorted in any obvious order (their website is much better), and the stupid bar at the top disappears 5 seconds after scrolling, causing the screen to jump while reading. Worse, someone seems to think having figured appear in pop-outs instead of being formatted inline like the rest of the world is good. And the pop-outs usually come up blank.

1 ★ As if 25 seconds of load time on startup weren't bad enough, the articles are unreadable because the text keeps jumping around.

2 ★ Wow, I don't know where to begin. CACM hosted content jumps around. EXTERNAL content often scales so badly that both edges of the text are cut off at the sides of the screen and no horizontal scrolling is provided. Also, when links embedded in external articles are followed, the back button skips all the intermediate links and goes back to the CACM app. Some advice for CACM: don't try to host external content, instead just invoke the user's browser.

1 ★ Same issue as other user. Why have a character limit on your password field?

1 ★ Fix the login issue at least. That's just stupid.

1 ★ Login using a confirmed to be working user account and password reset today fails. The app login feature seems broken and not tested. Note that the same username and password works on the CACM webpage and on other ACM mobile apps (latest Android). Uninstalling and not trying again anytime soon!

1 ★ Atrocious UI. Perhaps they should have run it by some SIGCHI folk...

1 ★ App will not recognize my ACM credentials

3 ★ But what's the point to show the auto-hiding banner every time I try to scroll down?

1 ★ Jumping texts is really annoying

1 ★ Limits on password, cannot login.
