"I find politics inaccessible": User testing voter advice apps - Francis Irving

How is she going to vote? My friend (let’s call her F) just doesn’t know. This isn’t unusual - about 20% of voters are like her (see Q3). She needs to work it out fast. She doesn’t like polling stations, so has a postal vote. She has to decide this weekend - or she’ll get busy with work, and not remember to post the ballot in time. mySociety helpfully list 16 voter advice apps, so I decided this was a chance to test them out!
