Trying to read the articles in this app can be challenging. They have advertisements and stuff all over the place. There is a strip across the bottom and if you're scrolling up and you happen to touch that it is going to flip to another article. The content of the articles are very good but trying to get that information with all the bloat/advertising you have in there makes it very frustrating.

The news reports in the app all have a major bias one way or another. It's frustrating. Functionally it works fine, never had a crash, never had an overly annoying ad. Edit: Dropping a star (4 to 3) because the bias seems to be increasingly obvious, I have to fact check multiple articles elsewhere before I form an educated opinion on anything political. For general news, it's typically fine.

News feed works fine. You can customize it to show areas of interest. It has the frustrating habit of sending a push notification with a really interesting headline, but when you open the alert, that news story is not shown. Not even if you scroll all the way down. Half the time it won't even bring up the missing story if you search for the exact title from the push notification. That gets old fast. Also, too many ads mixed in with real news. At least they are now marked as ads.
