App works, but the app is just program clips, and badly organized. No datestamps, not in order, plays back in haphazard order from multiple shows. Good luck finding a simple program replay in sequence. 10/27/24 still has the same problems. You cannot get a simple program replay. Hard to find date stamps, mixes up program segments.

ABC News is my favorite evening news program but the ABC News app leaves very much to be desired. I get News breaks in my notifications which is fine BUT!!! half the time when I clicked on the story/notifications to read the story/news, the app will go to the story then it rushes to a index/list...then I can't find the story I clicked on. YES!!! I updated the app several times to no avail. YES!!! This is a NEW Android, Galaxy 22+! PLEASE FIX THIS!!!!!!! When fixed, 5 stars we go!!!

Really want to like this app cause I believe ABC news has top tier reporting, and I really appreciate how they're committed to making free content (can't find that with most news sources). But the app itself does not function. The interface is fairly easy to navigate and the look is professional, but it doesn't work. The app will automatically close and crash any time I open most articles. It'd be better to just go to their website. Also PLEASE add dark mode for the love of God and my eyes
