Headlines: Live Breaking News Reviews

by %*?

Are you people stupid? You go to the site and hit a heading. You checkout the stories under that heading AND when you find one you wish to read, you tap on it. Then it takes you to a second page with an expanded headline, AND you have to tap on it and go to a third page to get to the story. Then you try to read it and one of two things happen: the site freezes up and you are stuck; or the entire site just closes. When you go back to the site, the headings are the same but all the pictures have changed. Hit on a heading and go to the inside stories and all have changed their locations. AND when you try to tap on the story before your finger can touch the scene all of the stories switch all over the page. To the site operators, you have a good idea but you are lousy in making it work. I do check back to see if you have finally fixed things. But NO you haven't. So your site is a total WASTE of TIME. So have the integrity to post my review so others do not waste their time with your site!

This source provides extremely blatant left leaning news. They only present opinions and observations from a liberal perspective. It is so blatant that it appears the only real intent is to inflame the audience without an actual care to educate what is really happening. This is a cheap way of hooking an uneducated audience, but it also completely destroys the credibility of the source. For instance there has been nothing but fear mongering presented for the stock markets since Trump took office, but none has come true. In fact, nothing but significant increases have materialized. If this source was used to rely on investment strategies you would end up as bankrupt as the moralities that underline its foundations. No thanks. I prefer to deal with the true realities of the world. I am not into “fake” news and this source is the king of them all. Headlines is embarrassing and unworthy of being on my phone.

I started reading an interesting article from a notification. When I wanted to glance at the next page, the article disappeared and, worse, the notification that linked to the article disappeared. I then could not find the article under any headings despite a thorough effort. If an article was worth sending a notification about, it should be worth a way to find it after the initial quick glance.

Was a good app, and was, WAS very first thing I read every morning but for the last couple weeks, IOS11 updates, not loading, crashes, images not showing... REALLY???
Don't your programmers know internet is all about visual?
You have new programmers not capable of fixing something in a timely manner? This is not 1998, that means within an hour.
This is how you loose readers. And I am one of them.

Headlines used to be good but is no longer functional. Using iPadOs13 it has stories repeated from 3 to 10 times per page. Instead of having individual paragraphs about each news story Headlines repeats the same paragraphs over and over. Will definitely have to delete Headlines and try a different news app and provider. It’s too buggy to waste time on anymore, hope they fix it for someone else.

...Headlines is SOOOOO "buggy" that it's just that...a good IDEA! I wish this service worked reliably enough to use as my major new app, but it just doesn't. Like the other Review said, it freezes to the point of making it completely unreliable, but for me another big problem is the list of alerts from different media that I get are never available when I click them, unless I am opening the latest one immediately after receiving it...any below that, or even a few minutes later take me back to the Main Page, where I have to start looking for it from scratch! (the fact that after a year of trying to use it, there is only one other review may be rather telling! I have no proof, but I'm guessing that they've "cleared out" their Reviews after some update to rid themselves of all the bad reviews they MUST have gotten over the past year. Getting new alerts from an app that displays a large amount of news outlet is a nice idea! Reinstalling CNN to use, leaving this as a back-up app, for a different outlook, but sans the alerts...they just don't work right.

LOVE the funny pictures articles in the odd news section! However, hate it that when reading an article, if you leave the this app app to do something else with your phone, and then go back, to the Headline app, it completely reloads and kicks you all the way back to the beginning! SUPER annoying!!! Many other news apps will let me leave while reading an article, and then come back later and put me right back where I left off. this app needs to fix their app and do the same!

Getting more buggy than ever, freezes crashes almost every time it used now.
Would be even better if you could read the story without jumping from place to place. And have the whole story not just a part.
They a updated stuff and now pictures don't always show. Odd news can't on longer look at funny pictures it just words about the pictures, they keep adding more pictures stories without pictures.

I like Headlines because I get my news I want to read. I just do not like that it gives you part of an article then you have to click another link to go to the actually article.

Headlines is so informational. I don't have time to always watch the news daily with my busy schedule. I am so glad headline news keeps me informed so I am up to date on what is happening this country as well as other countries. Sometimes the stories need to be more in depth.

You keep old news too long, please add new news and delete days and weeks old news. There is also too much Fox News. Be multi-lateral in differing angles of news.

I switched over from Breaking News after they went under. Not as up to date but still the best out there, in my opinion.

I've had Headlines for just under a year; it's good for collecting the topics I'm interested in, but its boolean search engine still needs work. I get articles that are sometimes unrelated to my interests, as in: I want to read about lake-effect weather, not Justin Timberlake. Still, it's good as a work-in-progress.

this app contains not only news and sports. It also has wonderfully creative and humorous sections for Odd News, Today in History, Arts, Science, etc. Funny Pictures of the Day is a must see!

I enjoy the news.

Used to get weather radar doesn’t show it anymore don’t know if something I did or in settings

by SexyScience24

Since I found this app I have really enjoyed it. I really like the different categories and extras. Good job all! I don't know why some are having difficulties. Works great for me. There may be a glitch every once in a while

Keeps me up-to-date on all the news. I read it every day.

Joining traffic and weather makes it much less useful for me. Traffic is important and I use it almost daily. The SF Bay Area has traffic nightmares often. Weather is something I don’t use. Please give traffic its own section at a higher level.
The info is good but getting there is clumsy often.

I receive notifications when these stories are posted. They let me know if I can ant to send the story to my email for future reading. Love that!

App isn’t bad at all. Yes, it has a few bugs—everything does, these days. I have no complaints at all with Headlines .

The SOURCING, the titles, and the stories are perpetually one-sided, dangerously misleading, missing facts that other news apps clearly state, and even refuse to report events that any rational person would want to be aware of. They were decent, 5-6 years ago. These days, the stories Headlines passes along, is only good for a laugh. I’m not deleting it, though. They were decent once, and can be again. I hope.
