Skeptical Science app good for
Thorough answers, easy navigation for both when youre discussing and when youre just browsing. I wish the app included an easy way to switch between basic/intermediate answers (as the website provides). Still, a most useful resource.
Brilliant app! Ive already used it very effectively to point out how a lot of "discussion" on climate change is really just rehashed myths. This is the Snopes of climate science.
A great reference to have with you when you are presented with an unfamilar argument from the woo woos and conspircy theory crowds.
Expand this app to cover all pseudoscience!
I would love to also have topics like Homeopthy, Chiropathic "Medicine", Creationism/Intelligent Design, Astrology, God, etc.
Whats really great about this app is the amount of data in the articles.
It is not just a bunch of talking points with quick come backs.
The information is concise and detailed, supported with plenty of easy to understand graphs and links to peer reviewed articles and official websites.
While I like the idea of reporting on the topics I have had to respond to, I have to wonder if enough people will use this app to complile a large enough data base to really determine where the hotspots of denialism are.
Over all, very educational app. I read it just for the hell of it sometimes.
Awesome app! Great to support my arguments for global warming.
The debate should be about what to do to solve the problem not about campaigns to bring down the sciene, which is imperfect, but well established.
Some bad moments
Latest update crashes, ... doesnt even load.
Absolutely useless. Had to delete it.
Was working grear. Good info. Now it crashes every time i try to open.
Ok. I now realize that the site is far from balanced, I kinda knew that. The new app though will not even launch! Come on guys, get your act together!
This App used to be great. Now it crashes within 5 seconds of opening. Please fix.
I have the same issues as others. It used to work great and the organization of the info was great. Now the app consistently crashes- even after deleting and reinstalling the program.
This was a handy app in my iPod touch, but will not load on my iPad2. The opening screen loads, then the app crashes.
