Great app. Terrible notifications. The app is easy to use and robust, but I wish I could use the notifications. I really just wanted alerts for critical breaking news in real time, such as earthquakes, terrorist events etc. Unfortunately "breaking news" seems to include a lot of irrelevant stuff.

Unbalanced perspective. I have read CBC News stories for many years and have appreciated it for staying up to date. Unfortunately, I have now chosen to delete this app because I do not feel as though both sides of issues are equally represented. When a national issue is being publicly debated, CBC more often chooses the side they support as an organization and reports almost exclusively about that view. I am seeking a provider that reports from both sides of the debate; for now, CBC does not.

Sick of the ads. I'm trying to find some news out and I have to navigate ads. Get out of here with that. I just close the app when I run into an ad and get information somewhere else. Will probably delete anyway
