Ratings and reviews

App is saying it needs to be updated when you open it. So when you press update, it takes you to the app in the Google play store. In store you are prompted to open app, there is no prompt to update. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app. I am able to see news articles after hitting open in GP store. However, same situation with need to update occurs when I leave app and then try to open it. I have restarted the phone. Same thing happened. Convinced something is going on with app. 12/26/22

I have been using this app for around 4-5 years without a problem, but now, after the last update the (view more) tab no longer works, it's there but don't work, also when trying to read an article it jumps up and down you can't keep your eyes on it, the text is much larger and can't zoom in to make it smaller, the whole thing just really frustrating, I gave it a one star because you have to so you can leave a review

App was decent long ago, but with sharing problems. Now the app reloads itself constantly. You'll be in the middle of reading an article, perhaps you've looked away for a minute or two, only to have the app "automatically" redirect you back to the main feed. After which you are forced to go hunting for your article again if you want to finish it. Why do they put these kinds of irritating "features" into an app? To artificially raise numbers? Tempted to delete the app again. Perhaps I will.
