Freespoke Reviews

by JillNoelle

Yeah, no… I downloaded Freespoke, hoping to find it lived up to its description, but after spending five minutes reviewing their so-called “censored” articles, I realized every single one related to an ultra-conservative, right-wing, divisive topic. Just what we need…another place that spreads hate and a lack of empathy and tolerance. Yay. I had high hopes—especially regarding shopping for American-made products, but I have no interest in reading articles about bigots and racists and otherwise intolerant people. We need to come together, not shine a spotlight on our differences. I’m off to delete Freespoke .

I am deleting app. I wanted to like it. BUT
very frustrating that EVERY time I was filling out forms, page would reload out of no where and I would have to start from scratch. OR I would be looking at a page and it would close or reload to a different page. Also, when I was closing Freespoke it should erase all data if it is was truly pro privacy. You have to go in and delete all the data manually.

This is the worst I have seen in long while ad it LOADED with dishonest blogs which you cannot read because of all the ads literally covering the whole article you are they to read . I have seen nothing that appears to be free speech all the topics are by a one sided view point .
This concept is getting old just because some idiot writes a blog doesn’t means it is true . The research on the stories here cross reference by other media site in void NaDA no mention at all .
For my sanity I uninstalled this of all my devices!

I was excited about the idea of this. For me, part of the idea of truth and freedom is avoiding being tracked and loaded with cookies. As it turns out, Freespoke offers ZERO possibilities to remain even remotely anonymous or clear your tracks after use. I can look back at any time to see ALL my history and searches and there’s absolutely no way to clear anything. Worse than Google. Steer clear.

I may not agree with you, but I’ll fight for your right to have freedom of speech. That’s what America once was, land of freedom and opportunity. No longer it seems is this true if we don’t have the right to speak freely on or off the internet. I did like it’s efficiency and design, pity it has to be like every other search engine now on Apple. Time to buy a new phone with less censorship involved in it’s design. I have had other types of phones like Samsung, so I see Apple app store for what it has become where it only allows apps like these into it’s store. Really turns me off toward buying anymore of their products only to have my searches censored.

by Lkeycooper

This is a fraud. The first two searches I made had a strong liberal bias. Too bad.

by MisKleber

Freespoke is false advertising. It’s very restrictive on what you can search for when searching for the truth. I am very tired of lefty apps.

by PC-12 Pilot

What began as a decent platform has succumb to ad overload. Barely able to locate actual article content from amongst the ad sea of 'drink this tonight and lose 20 pounds' or 'get ten shades whiter teeth in 30 seconds with this secret trick dentists don't want you to know'.

Content isn't anything that can't be easily found elsewhere. If you the reader don't know the your source's bias, having an app tell you probably doesn't matter anyway.

by Karikurls

I’m still giving it time. When I do a search and get results then need to go to the next page only one item is added to the page I was just finished looking over. So I have to scroll all the way to the bottom to see only one more item. Not a full new page. This is a big downer for me. I don’t know about anyone else but I don’t like this.

Been using Freespoke for quite some time and have been very happy. I made the mistake of updating today, and boy do I regret it. The tabs, url, etc are now all on the BOTTOM of the screen instead of the top. I supposed I could get used to that (but I don’t like it), but what is making me delete Freespoke is that the bottom section keeps getting bigger, then getting smaller, getting bigger, then getting smaller. Talk about distraction! Makes for a miserable user experience. And I can’t figure out any way to select any settings that would let you move this section back to the top of the screen. Poor UX, IMO.

by Sunnibird

Looks interesting, but can we please have landscape view?

by Not Good For Five

This browser is great for a Non-biased news outlet that shows you both sides. My only problem is that if it wants to compete with google then it should expand its horizons further than just the news. It should be dimpled like google while also having various tabs and such like images, shopping, or maps. Freespoke has lots of potential if ran on the right path!!

by MikoMcB

Freespoke works on iPad but the view is vertical (as it would be on an iPhone) and does not rotate for an iPad being used horizontally, which is how most people use iPads. This is a deal breaker for me, as I’m most often on my iPad when I need to do research, not on my iPhone. I like this app, and I want to use it instead of Google for obvious reasons. I’ll check back for a true horizontal view iPad version.

by DrKND

I decided to try your platform today for search, only did discover that it doesn’t work in landscape view, which is how my iPad is positioned on my desktop. I also found that you only have chrome extensions for my Mac, and I don’t use chrome and don’t want to use it, give us Apple users, some love please, and fix these things. We could use you!

Freespoke itself is good, easy to navigate. The news is balanced and not mind-numbing woke lies.
But it is almost always a day late. They either need more staff loading articles, or better algorithms or something. Just too yesterday's news.

by Genneralee

Although it’s nice looking, the loading animation needs to go. When In a hurry, I don’t like having to wait for the loading screen. Other than that, it’s a very helpful tool!

by Harley D Rider

Will you please consider adding a bookmark section/favorites like a few popular search engines have. I have a lot of book marks on Safari, for that reasoning I still can’t delete Safari web browser.

by Costarica12

I like this new app, like getting their unbiased news too. Only problem is portrait orientation only. Developers, please add landscape! No one uses portrait!

by A. Wonderland

There needs to be a dark mode feature. It's amazing how apps don't have this available from the date of launch. I would give it 5 stars, but I took 1 away for not having dark mode. Will modify this if and when this feature gets added. Other than that, Freespoke is great!

by Norskhilda

I love reading news with Freespoke. It gives several sources for each story and labels the political slant for each source. Easy to compare the left and right slants to each story.

Gives lots of choices in settings for search engine.

by Vahid12

I used to switch to Bing for news as it was better than Google but Freespoke curates all the good articles that I would’ve otherwise missed. I don’t review apps that often but I have to give credit to this one

by Baby Dea

This search engine should be the standard.
I found so many articles on topics that I never would've found using Google. It's crazy how biased results are in the most popular search engines. Freespoke proves it, kinda scary.

I highly recommend Freespoke!

by Crissyone

I seem to always be looking for something and I have yet to not find it the first time. You save so much time searching for special places and things and I appreciate how simple it is to use. Thank you so much for starting this search.

One thing that is hard for me when going to a new app is the different feel and drop im search quality. This did not have that. I felt like I was googling and was ver impressed by the variety of earth results I got back.

by BZ MAMMA

Ever since I downloaded it from Freespoke Store, it’s been my go to anytime I have to do a search! I absolutely love it! So many results on other search engines/browsers are censored, but not on this one! Thank you so much for giving us a better uncensored and untracked way to find valuable information! I have shared this with everyone, I know! 🥰🤜🤛🙌🙏🏽

by Weld Wizard

I’m tired of Google and everyone else getting paid for my information while i receive nothing in return but less control of what i look at. Now I’m back in control again.

by Tomlicious

this app is a game-changer for anyone looking for a reliable app to help them with their search. Freespoke and website make it easy to find what you're looking for, thanks to its straightforward and unfiltered search function. I had forgotten how effective a simple search could be until I started using this app. I highly recommend Freespoke to anyone who wants a hassle-free and efficient way to search for information.

by Pablo1177

I'm so glad this app finally released an App! I've been using the site for about a year. It's shown me all kinds of information I couldn't find elsewhere. And the newsfeed has interesting articles and topics, and it shows various news sources side by side. Good job this app! It was kinda hard to share articles in your App, so please update that in your next release.

by Magazine Review 2768

I’m really glad that I was recommended this app by an ad I saw. Freespoke is great and makes it easier to read all different viewpoints in one place. I definitely recommend making the switch!

by Truck, Fuller

I’ve just recently found this site and I enjoy it. I enjoy the fact that if I’m browsing something big brother isn’t over my shoulders, paying attention when I’m watching in forming her an opinion about who I may be or not be in their best interest or not Commies boxes thank you for all you people do.

by OiPolloi_888

After spending some time on this app exploring it’s UI and functionality, I’M SOLD!! Kudos to the developers and founders. It not only looks beautiful but works great. The News section is my favorite part so far. A big win when I can trust my search results are not manipulated. 5-star all the way!

by IamTheRealNeo

It seems like all the news apps are like 90/10 left/right, I’ve been looking for a news platform that has a much more even balance, and news that main stream media won’t release. Within in minutes I began to feel relief, it’s simplistic and smooth, it feels like a high quality apple made platform, and the labeling makes it super easy to know what side the articles are leaning. Have not used the search engine yet, will get back to you on that.

by Cray Money

Awesome to now have an independent search engine on my phone! Great job to the team, excited to use all the features this team makes.

by Jspooner

The search seems to work well after a couple of days of testing. I’m definitely sharing it with all of my friends.

by Keeping It Real NC

It has a fluid and attractive interface, and more important than that, it produces outstanding search results. And it doesn’t track you. So far, so good.

by Morrie40

A great app to use for news. Offers multiple sources for anything I’m looking to read up on!

by Cathycreates

Finally I can get the information I want - from a variety of sources - and develop my own opinion! I’ve loved the website, and am thrilled it’s in app form now.
