SmartNews Status

Smart news Will not open article when pressing headline. Get "failed to load content" with retry button that does nothing.

SmartNews topics and headlines appear, but doesn’t permit you to read. Click headliner, no response.

Why do some articles take so long to load? It's not my internet connection or speed, on other sites it's working fine and some articles on Smart News load up quickly, others take for ever it seems. Are you trying to load ads or cookies and my ad blocker is stopping you from doing that causing the delay?

While using SmartNews on my iPad Pro (3rd gen) it burns through the battery quickly. Is this normal?

Smart new only coming in Japanese, NOT english

It freezes and will not allow me to close it out and then freezes my iPad so I have to reboot it. It is the only site that does this.

Every time i open app an video of some man buffing a floor in fast forward speed pops up then the app goes dark.

Freezes constantly

Click on article but it won't load.

Smart news after 10 or 15 articles or sometimes right away it starts buffering and won't stop. I have the latest att internet via fiber. WI fi 6

I have notifications on and pop up allowed but nothing is showing. I uninstalled and re installed

why does smartnews only load half a story on some pages & nothing on others.

All media clips accessed within the app are very slow, and in many cases will not play at all. This is a relatively new issue.

Smart news keeps freezing up when i scroll on a article

When watching something like something about history half way though it go blank.

Smart News has begun repeatedly freezing. Quitting; reinstalling; restarting iPad doesn’t help.

App freezes when reading articles

I have 2 advertisements breaking into my news reading. HELP

App won't load articles, I've reinstalled the app a few times already and it still won't load news articles it'll just stay buffering.

In SmartNews my iPhone X randomly highlight stuff then jumps around the screen highlighting other stuff then kicks me out of the article or opens another window.

I used to be able to share a smart News article onto Facebook, I can not do that anymore. All it shows is the smart News name but not the article. I'm doing this on a Samsung A51 cell phone, and always have with no issues til about a month ago. Patti

When viewing SmartNews, i get loud, overlapping music or conversation. It is unintelligible, but annoying. This is not just at home but anywhere I try to watch

The home icon, local, search, notifications and profile are showing up on the bottom of my tablet screen and my android icons are there also and I have them set to use swipe activation, only problem is I sometimes activate the wrong icon

Smartnews is stuck in an ad. I don’t mind ads, but it won’t quit this ad. 🤬🤬🤬

I was reading an article and my screen came up BLACK. It won’t allow me to log out at all. Basically, I’m locked out.

When I click on story an advertisement for apple games pops up . You have to wait for entire ad for game to play before you can return to smart news

Articles won't open

When I click on smart news I cant get the article to open it just spins it wont let me read the article

How can I share News Stories from my iPad to my wife’s iPhone using the Smart News app?

I just purchased an iPhone 14. The notifications for this App are not working. I have tried EVERYTHING. Was working fine on the iPhone X that I had previously.

For two months, most pages load slowly (can take 30 seconds). Other safari and chrome pages load immediately. Have cleared cache and redownloaded app. iPhone 12 Pro Max, new SIM card.

On new iPhone (SE 2022) the app does not send notifications. When both old and new operational, notifications were going to the old one. Erased the old but still noting comes to the new. This is a second time this happens. Had two phones operational at the same time before and only one was getting notifications. If it matters, the one getting notifications was an iPhone 8 the ones not getting were an iPhone SE 2020 and an iPhone SE 2022. Just to dispel the SE issue, the first phone I had that as getting notifications fine, was an iPhone SE 2015.

I am unable to view and read articles as it just keeps buffering.

I've been using smartness for a while but suddenly I can't read the news on my desktop. Every article leads with a demand that I scaredn a QR code with my phone & read it there. Kind of pointless.

My last message and this page Poofed! back to my home page...Every Smart News article gives me endless buffer circle--really frustrating. Please fix issues! This just started happening a couple weeks ago.

Will Smartnews never again be able to be accessed on a pc or is this a temporary issue?

On my IPad Air 1st gen, I cannot look at articles in SmartNews. I can only look at headlines. I used to be able to read articles but have not been able to for quite some time now.

"SmartNews for desktop/PC stopped allowing the ability to read news articles. When clicking on a news article it now says to "To continue reading....scan-icon" Where is the app for the desktop???

Ditto this from DrP on 12/1/22: "SmartNews for desktop/PC stopped allowing the ability to read news articles. If users click on a news article it now says to *download the app*...This is Not possible on a business desktop!"

An ad popped up on my smart news app - can’t get rid of it and can’t get any smart news.

I love Smart News but many times it will either crash or when trying to load an article it just spins, I reinstall it and sometimes it works again and sometimes not. This happens most times and I use it every day. Very frustrating. Works great on my phone

Each time I open your app, I get constant background noise throughout the session. It sounds like the low frequency static commonly associated with radio and tv.

I am having issues with stories not downloading and even with green arrow to open it does not work. I would say 70 per cent do not open up. I deleted the app before and returned hoping i was fixedbut now worse than ever. I have an Android Galaxy A51. Received new upgrade today. Problems persist..

I have an android phone and when I did your latest update I now can't see comments on articles or replies. How can this be fixed?
