theChive
Intuitive GUI that makes navigation easy
One of the most important things for entertainment apps is an intuitive interface to make it easy to scroll through thousands of funny pictures or to play a video. All categories and subcategories are neatly arranged under the 'hamburger' icon.
Upon launching, the app displays the latest trending pictures. There's also a section with top rated content of all times and categories for images. In addition, you can set the app to provide you with random content.
Download or favorite content
The Chive is a great app because it lets you download any pictures or videos off the website and the process takes just seconds. You can also comment on items, favorite them in your gallery or like them. There's also the option of sharing files on social networking sites and even uploading content if you sign up for an account.
Extra features and tools
Other than funny content, theChive also comes with a gallery of items for sale. You can shop for shirts with funny logos, various items for parties or for Halloween. The gallery is filled with many cool stuff. In addition, the app comes with a beer map, mainly pubs and locations nearby that serve beer. Also, there's the section with games, that you can download directly from theChive or Google Play.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
While the app's design is intuitive it's still a bit simplistic with no customization options and no additional themes. |
Function7
Downloads are made instantly, but videos buffer for a while. In addition, the app doesn't come with the option to filter images with mature content. |
Security8
Although it's a rather safe app, as online registration is required only if you wish to submit content, the app needs access to location services and other sensitive areas in your phone. |
Battery7
The app was well optimized not to take up too much battery, however it does use location services and plays video. |
Price8
Completely free of charge but comes with annoying banner ads. |
Compatibility9
The app requires Android version 2.2 or later, making it accessible to many users. |
A good app for getting a laugh or buying cool stuff.
