This app is terrible. Many of the titles are cut off of the headline stories such that you can't read the whole thing- even when you're on the page specifically for that story. Then the transcript is cut off also which makes it impossible to just skim the news when you don't want to sit and watch videos all day. There are lots of ads that pop up when you open the app. You have to watch an ad for about 15 seconds before you can watch the video clip you wanted to see. Half of the time the app crashes between the ad and the video, but if you make it through the video, it still crashes after that frequently. Hate that I have to literally click on national news to see anything that isn't local. Seems like users should be able to set preferences. Overall it's a glitchy, poorly designed app that I very much dislike.

The only App with Pop-up Commercials! The is horrible, when that happens to me I just close the app, and go somewhere else for Iowa News.
How dare you waste my data plan minutes I pay for with a commercial. If I want to watch an ad I’LL MAKE THE DECISION. I understand if I pick a video to watch, (commercial first then video) Normally I just turn the volume off, and come back in 30 seconds.
But unwanted commercial I didn’t ask for. Pff…

Bad design and difficult to follow/use.
The most ads for a news group, HORRIBLE.
Takes over my speakers and shuts down my music too, if I wanted to listen to a story I understand. This is the only app I have that does that. Which is why I rarely use it first, I'll go to other Media apps 1st.

Rating STILL has not changed. Too slanted information and not just the facts. Turns OFF my music that I'm listening to, no other app does this, why?. I avoid this app for news due to this issue while listening to music.
Too many Ads, and worthless news.

Still the same only app to shut off my speakers. Too May ads!!! Silly miss leading headlines.
Oh and now using VUZ, BAD choice how about some national news from CBS.
Still a 1 star, be a half star if they had it.

The old app was way easier to navigate. Straight forward. If I wanted to watch the news, I would turn on the TV. I have this app so I can READ the news and check the weather. I never know if I am going to get a blaring video that automatically pops up or an actual news article to read. I am not always in a setting where it is appropriate to watch a video. Sometimes the video content and body of written article don't even match up. I want the choice to watch a video when available, not to be forced by pop up. If not changes soon, I will be looking for another source of information.
