Used to find this app useful but the new update want access to call history, WiFi connectivity and other devices on networks. So it is getting uninstalled oh and I did try to question their reasons for doing this but got an error telling me my email address is invalid. I hope not, I've been using the same one for almost 20 years

It's a great all and you always get daily top 5 news stories which can be helpful. The only issue I have is the lack of background app usage. By background app usage, I refer to if you open the notification on the top 5 daily stories, if you do ANYTHING to NOT be on the app (go to home screen, open a separate app, press the app windows button) it immediately closes the app. When I press the app window button after already opening the CTV News all for example, it doesn't show the CTV News app open, and if I go to go back to the CTV News app it is no longer there. The app just closed itself. Other than that, it doesn't automatically close when you directly open the all through your home screen or app drawer, only if you open it through a notification. This isn't anything MAJOR, as if you lose your spot you can always reopen the app, but it is a little frustrating. Other than that the app works great!

Does not show news in timely manner, some news are modified specially when they are from different countries and dont reflect original news, app most of the time shuts down, videos take tooo looong to load as compared to other apps. Guys dont waste ur time with this app!

Doug MacNeil

Not much point using the app to catch up on the news if you can't chromecast it. Mirroring the screen prevents me from doing something else while I am watching it. CBC's app seems to get it.

Landon Moroz

Funding useless constantly freezing or not working in one way or another. Typical considering how unprofessional there news is on tv

App doesn't let me share with other apps other than just LinkedIn. Annoying. Will uninstall immediately.

Slow, live news won't run. wants you to sign in with your cable/sat account to watch..

Angela Miller June 14, 2017

Use to work before it was updated. Now it won't load a single story.

Barry Johnson June 21, 2017

They want access to way too much information on my phone.

me moi April 29, 2017

I'm with Virgin Mobile for Internet and unable to get live streaming and with koodo for mobile data

Clem Bray March 16, 2017

Bell controlled media app. Excludes some. Useless. Check the NY Times for how to do this.

Antonio Vitullo March 18, 2017

The app always goes in landscape mode. No idea why. I'm using the Blu Life One X2

D G Roberts May 18, 2017

This app crashes almost every time I use it. How hard can it be to show me a news story. We're not talking videos or interactive use, just reading text on the screen. This is not a well crafted app.

Jack 1059 June 22, 2017

Why so many permissions for just providing me news? Un installed.

Neujamon April 24, 2017

The only problem I have is that I get notifications in the late night and early morning when I'm trying to sleep and can't change that

Scott MacKenzie March 1, 2017

The "News in Pictures" section never works. Not impressed.

June 3, 2017

Horrible app, always loading stories even on wifi. Pointless , uninstalled.

Darrell Kuch June 2, 2017

Bad Design. Landscape only. No vertical scrolling. Pictures cut off.

L Lambert May 8, 2017

I don't like it. 1, there is no search option 2, nothing is free, you MUST sign in with satellite or cable provider, i don't have sat or cable,

May 2, 2017

Some links for news stories link to a completely different story sometimes, and sometimes links are broken.

Scott H June 3, 2017

Crashes continually and does not provide timely news. Very disapointed

ca douglas March 28, 2017

Kyle Schenk January 2, 2017

Garbage Last version would freeze and not load stories after app ran in the background for a short period. Update to current version and now it crashes while launching. Update list minor bug fixes? Might want to fix the major one first. Like make it work! Useless on my HTC One and my tablet. Get it together CTV/Bell. You do know you sell a lot of Android products right?

Erin Davie January 1, 2017

Needs to fix the bugs Always freezing up on me. I'll even restart my phone thinking that's the problem but this is the only app that constantly freezes up on me. Just updated my rating to 1 star from 3. When it crashes everytime no matter what you do, it's obviously useless to me.

Bell Media Inc. February 3, 2016

Hey Erin. Sorry to hear you're having trouble with the app. Please contact us at ctvnewsgo@bellmedia.ca for more information

Jesse Holt February 8, 2017

(Revised review) I deleted this app in January due to it crashing every time it opened. However it seems to now be fixed. Good content, much better than cbc news app

Randy Cronsilver January 1, 2017

Ctv news go Worked fine in the beginning. Lately keeps crashing. Won't let me access the app. Keeps opening and then immediately shutting down.

Kayla O'Hara-MacAulay January 2, 2017

Not worth it I've had this app for years but now you can't even use it. Out of 30 times it only works once for maybe 2 mins before it crashes again.

Rob Matton February 23, 2017

The grammatical errors and spelling mistakes should be embarrassing for a news organization. It's obvious that there isn't anyone proof reading the stories before they are posted. I also find that more often then not the video clips do not play. The app is disappointing.

Kyle Griffith January 27, 2017

I click on local stories for my area and only get one or 2 local stories then the rest of the world... I know there is more then that for a city of over a million people
