RTÉ News Reviews

This started happening in the last week: I try to look at the news, I get the header lines but the rest of the content area is white, and after a few seconds the application blows up. If I try to press on one of the options in the header lines before it blows up there is no response.

Very poor, every time you play a video on the newest iPhone X or 11, the X button on videos does not allow you to close out of the video to get back to the story. No swipe or other action to do it either. Has been happening for over a year but RTÉ obviously not testing or listening to users.

Love RTÉNews, great for keeping up to date on all types of Irish news when I'm away. One flaw, on the entertainment news section it always appears to be missing extra pictures and links in some articles , for example in competitions etc. Not a huge deal but annoying when they are talking about a picture you can't see. Other than that it's the first app I open up in the morn when I wake up along with my emails and facebook

Good sourcing of reports. My wish list would be a sophisticated search means for deeper material research about articles.

With the latest update I cannot open RTÉNews . It crashes before it opens.

Too much wasted space on iPad, requiring unnecessary scrolling. Preferred old organisation. Please provide a “compressed view” option...

When you update APPS you mess things up. Disappointed. It should be a piece of cake to update an APP. It’s not. I always have to ge help. 🍀

Loss of “Live News” a big loss. Not much video left.

Open app .. popup says to update .. go to App Store, app is up to date, open app .. back to step one.

Not trustworthy and completely biased.

Crash on Load for iPad3 OS 9.3.6

Ver. 6.0.19 was OK BUT Ver. 6.0.22 crash on startup

RTÉNews does not work! Is RTÉ aware of this and are they working on it?

This is a good okay world news app. When breaking news is happening you are notified as soon as the news is happening... And it's a good European news app overall. It could be better like BBC or FNC .
I would giving this news app a 5 star but needs more news alerts and updates that the other news apps are doing

I love the RTE Radio aps and RTE Player aps. I could not get through a week without them as an Irish expat. What has happened to the RTE NEWS NOW aps? The last version was damaged by the advert banners and this forced update is ruined by embedding "Entertainment News" in the main news page. How hard do we have to work to get to the serious news content, i.e. segregated into Irish, World, Political news? Reviewers on the itunes-Ireland website, also rated the aps poorly for similar reasons. I give 1-star rating to this version, for eroding the ease of access to serious NEWS content.

If you look up to the top right of your screen you can watch the news 24 hrs a day you eejits. I want them to remove the ad down the bottom so I don't open it accidentally when scrolling down.

An update is meant to improve things - OMG talk about completely screwing up an app.
Ads everywhere.
Ads b4 the live feed that won't load properly so when it's frozen and you click to close its interactive and jumps to the web page so u get to see more ads.
Deleting and resyncing with the old one still on the computer. Thank god I don't use cloud--Otherwise there would be no going back.

The main navigation is way worse than the previous version. Way too much work to access different sections. The existence of entertainment news in the home page view even after I removed it from the sections is really really poor.

I love RTÉ News. I'm in Chicago and it keeps me up to date with all the latest news, sports and entertainment info from Ireland and around the World

Seems to be fairly unbiased and has a good blend of articles from around the world and at home in Erie.

I have been a DAILY user of RTÉNews for a couple of years, in fact I PAID for RTÉNews but when it stopped working (i.e No Updates) I deleted it and loaded the "free" version. The free version crashes often and is full of Ads. I am now looking elsewhere for news content.

Excellent summary of Irish and world news and the full items are well written and informative. Thanks
