Ratings and reviews

I really like getting the meta info on the news, and it tends to focus on the major stories of the week rather than flooding you with a 24/7 news blast. My only quibble is a functional one- the articles only open in the app's built-in browser, which doesn't let you browse anywhere from the article you are looking at. It would be nice to have an option to open any news links in your phone's default browser. Otherwise, this is my favorite news app!

I like the concept, but find the app hard to use. It is far too sensitive to touch. Everytime I'm reading an article & scrolling, I have to go very slowly, or it switches me to another page right or left. The ads also pop up far to frequently; I can't even get a couple of paragraphs read. 1/2/2022, Update: changed star rating from 3 to 1. I am uninstalling app. Easy too much of a hassle for my news.

this App has some issues now. Had used it thoroughly to research issues along All side of media bias for several years as one of my primary news apps, however it won't even open now. I'd give it 5star once fixed. only thing it could improve is the homepage coverage of different issues could lean towards hot topics that don't aways measure up to the hype.
