Ratings and reviews

I don't know how I'm supposed to read the text with the highly distracting video playing, taking up half the screen. There is no option to stop it, nor disable it entirely (especially for those who want to save data). I'd rather have nothing but text - preferably at the top or centered in the screen rather than at the bottom. Otherwise seems useful - just this glaring problem of form over function.

This review was supposed to go to the "Send Feedback" part of the app but the Send button doesn't work. Currently the app seems really buggy. The UI has some issues like some of the buttons don't work unless you click them multiple times or some odd visual issues. I keep getting logged out and have to go through the tutorial. I also wish there was a way of telling the app what I do not want to see. The concept of the app is great, it just needs some work.

The only usable news app! Every other news app is just this unorganized mess that's hard to get where you want. And even if you do get to where you want, there's a lot of fluff, because they have to make revenue somehow, but Volv grabs the better ones and compiles them. One thing to fix is that on higher refresh rate displays (90hz/120hz), when you click "Read More" it's back to 60hz.
