This app used to be clunky, have horrible ui, and be pretty much a dedicated vessel for serving you ads (with news tucked in between the ads). This latest version is an even worse experience for the user. I don’t know how they managed to make this even worse than they did before. My least favorite new feature is that clicking into stories causes the app to send you into your web browser to shady advertising sites. The app literally kicks you out to external advertising sites in addition to the in app ad content. The articles are peppered with ads, the videos walked by them. Fake paid news stories a spread out amongst the real content in an increasingly higher ratio. The app stops/pauses whatever you are listening to at the time even tho they are read only sometimes. So You have to stop listening to anything else before opening this. Often articles are mentioning photos or to watch a video and the content mentioned in the headline isn’t even in the article. This app is becoming a bigger and bigger pile of hot garbage each release.

The layout of your app and it’s contents are horrible. Once you finally do get to the story, it takes forever to actually read it after navigating past imbedded videos and ads. And then, after that, there is zero substance to the content. The first thing you see, when opening the app, is a huge ad. To get rid of the ad you must “swipe up” but it’s difficult to know that because the directions are in white, blending into the background of the ad. Who is the genius who thought this was a good idea. I am not ready to delete this app yet as I can get all I need from the alerts…..no need to open the app to get pushed more garbage. But I am “this” close .

This app freezes up nearly every time I launch it and I have to go back to the IOS and swipe it up to close it just so I can regain control of my iPad again. News videos do not play reliably and the app seems like it gets stuck on pop up advertisements. Scrolling through the news stories is nearly impossible as the app wants to do something else... like pop up an advertisement. These issues do not happen on other news apps so I must conclude this is substandard programming.
