Ratings and reviews

Wow... We will have to contend with this starting 9 Sep: Webpage not available The webpage at [a free site? 😁] could not be loaded because: net::ERR_TIMED_OUT In other words, "Nothing is free, folks..." 😅

Really great app. But please added some top Bangla newspaper example prothomalo and somokal.

Highly recommend for those who can't afford internet. It is very helpful for me as I use it to keep myself up-to-date about current affairs as well as by Wikipedia, which is completely free, I use to check every kind of information. Sometimes it bugs but that's not so often. It is recommended that some more services should be added. Thanks
