E! News Reviews

by Chris's Acct.

It takes a lot for me to delete an app, for any reason. But I hate wasting my time and E News did that one too many times. This isn’t actually news - it’s a promotional tool for the Kardashians and other E! personalities, which make up nearly 90% of the headlines and 10% actual entertainment news. You won’t burn me again E!, and hopefully those reading this will heed my warning and avoid you too.

I don’t want ENews anymore, it has become more crappy as each update arrives. Today took the cake, since last night was an awards ceremony they have an annoying pop up at the top that keeps playing their commentary of the fashion, etc. Anytime you click on the video to pause, it reopens after you exit an article. No more E! News for me after years on my phone I’m finally done.

ENews literally has more shopping promotions than actual pop culture stories. They’ve recently added so many “click on this to see what this celebrity wears, drinks, puts on their face, sits on,” etc. that when you scroll through their content it’s hard to find pop news. They get a percentage of each sale if you buy something from their link so I’m guessing they did this to make more money but at the cost of their reader’s enjoyment. I’m currently trying to find another pop culture app.

App constantly crashed to the point where it wouldn’t load for days. I would delete ENews and reinstall and it would work for a couple days then crash. I reached out to app support with no response. Finally deleted ENews !
When it worked, the content was very easy to view and navigate. However, many of the articles had grammar or spelling errors. It would be great if someone proofread the articles.

In the past I have given E News/Network more credit than they even deserve. I have enjoyed some of their stories as they have been story breakers for me in the past. BUT I had enough once they covered the Myka Stauffer adoptive rehoming story. They do not know anything about most of the stories they cover; not credible and NO research done whatsoever. For them to cover the story with any sympathy towards that garbage woman is beyond me. Despicable network/“news” site!

Overall, I enjoy ENews. However, the current way you have to view photos needs some serious work. First off, the pictures are for the most part, too small. You can’t zoom in, and if there are words on the pictures, you have to awkwardly scroll upwards, which causes you to mistakenly click on other pictures in the process. If this one feature were redone, ENews would definitely be four stars!

I am wondering whether anyone posting the stories on your app even looks at the layout and UI, because it seems a lot gets overlooked.

From spelling and grammatical errors, to incomplete stories obviously pieced together-its hard to tell this is a professional publication.

For the last few weeks, entire sentences have been cut off by the image links inserted into articles and it still hasn’t been fixed.

I love E! it’s where I chose to get the “news” every day. I hate the nightly news it’s full of hate, violence and politics. But seriously the grammatical errors are ridiculous. Take pride in your work as a journalist. Also I wish there was more. It seems that there are several stories about the same people. There are so many celebrities to write about but the website only has a few celebs and several articles about them everyday.

ENews freezes way too much and gets very glitchy if you’re on for a minute or two. It’s very frustrating when you’re trying to scroll and it freezes and then you scroll way past where you were bc it finally catches up.

The only negative about ENews is that it drains your battery life super quick on the iPhones but besides that everything is perfect and works. If it didn’t drain the battery would definitely of given it 5 stars

Sometimes I click on the pop-up notifications for ENews to bring me to a specific story I’ll go to look at the picture and naturally hit the back button when I want to read the article unfortunately it brings me back to all of the articles and not just from the picture to the article which is extremely frustrating because then I have to search through everything to find the original article I was trying to read. Which is difficult there is a lot to go through and I don’t usually find what I’m looking for if it’s been a little bit of time since it was originally posted. I would love a search option so I could look up the title or topic of what I was trying to read. It’s extremely frustrating! Often times I end up having to just go to google and searching for The topic there. Usually I’m not finding it on me either.

ENews is great. I love being able to scroll through while I drink my coffee and get the latest updates.
The “My News” feature is fantastic!

However, I think if you added somewhere where we could search key words to find specific stories that would be helpful. (For example: “bachelor” or “kardashian”)

I don’t know if this happens to anyone else, but I’ll go to read an article, and then it shifts to the video clip linked to the article. It’s very annoying. There are some picture formatting issues sometimes, but other than that, I do like ENews . It just could be better!

by Old TV Junkie

I love the clean look and since the last few updates it’s been getting faster to use. The 360 experience is cool. I wish there would be more stories. So keep writing more about Gigi and Miley.

Any app that prevents a user from muting ENews permanently is going to get a 1 star. Usability 101. Nothing worse than opening an app and having a video yelling at you. It means I have to be careful when and where I open ENews .

I have been a long time viewer of E news. Think Pre-married, blond Giuliani Rancic, Pre-Kardashian era! The news has always been on point, with little bias. I trust the journalistic process and the relationships that are formed with celebrity.

by "Tom's Sister"

I love watching all the fashion! You just cannot find the coverage anywhere else other than a tiny bit about it-they apparently don’t care what their viewers want to see. Many many kudos to E! for the absolutely fantastic coverage! #goe fashionforever

I’m new to ENews so I accepted badge notifications but when I get one and open ENews it doesn’t show me what I’m getting notified about!! I’m bouncing around in ENews then I lose my current stories.

by Beachbaby79

I really like how ENews is set up and the celebrity news, BUT it freezes up on me A LOT and I have to exit out and reopen ENews if I wish to continue.

by Tubsthe Grasshopper

Have to delete and install each time as it does not load when you open it. Get it together

I have had ENews for as many years as I can remember and it is one of the first ones I look at each day. That said, I’m on the verge of deleting it. For a free app, such as this, I don’t mind that there are adverts throughout, but I’m getting very frustrated with the pop up ads, particularly the ones with no way to close them. I actually have to restart my phone to close the ad and get back to the content, which is insane!!

Also, I’m no English expert, but I would add that the editing of the articles is atrocious. There are often GLARING grammatical errors, such as misspelled or misused words and sentences that make no sense, which makes it difficult to read or take seriously (well, as seriously as one takes celebrity news 😉). I’m not asking for Charles Dickens and I don’t mind the slang or cutsie, light hearted writing style (it totally works for this genre), but something that looks like it was written and proofread by a professional would be nice.

On a positive note, I’m so grateful that you changed the auto play of the live video. Please don’t go back to that; it was awful! I was surprised by that on more than one occasion, while sneaking a peek at work. AWKWARD!

I'm seeing a good progression over last 5 updates. App is really cool to use it and crashes are not happening like previously faced.
