...our team has put in long hours...give it some time and...you will get used to the nonsense. The way news24 copy and past their responses,and the responses itself are just plain tone deaf. It is definitely not an enjoyment to use the app in its current state. 2020. Edit - after a lot of complaints the app improved. Now, 4 years later...2024 News24 is at it again! Ads popping up - UNEXSPECTEDLY- in articles, forcing you to fumble back and fore to find the place you were reading last. Same story

I'm changing my review, however keeping it at one star, I've subscribed, I pay my dues, yet I am still pushed with unnecessary ads, I understand the importance of paying for journalism and getting the writers paid, but if I pay for the app, remove the ads, come on guys. There's nothing worse than reading the news and then getting greeted by some half naked guy trying to sell weight loss products. Please do something, stop taking my money and then shoving these down my throat, be better.

Detailed, objective and relevant articles. Some of the bottom ads are typical toxic click bait stuff, but they are at the bottom and can easily be ignored. The main article ads load in simultaneously so that the news text don't bounce around all over the show (Appreciated!) All in all, it is acceptable with a reasonable subscription amount. But I still feel that the main article ads should be less for subscribers.
