I love CNET, and I like the app. However, there is a problem with the video player where the sound sometimes goes in and out and in and out (like you are hitting mute over and over again). I haven't pinpointed exactly when it happens versus when it works as intended, but it also starts a video up again even when you have paused the video. It happens so much that I RARELY watch the videos and just read the reviews/articles.

When asked for my interests, Apple was not a choice I made (nor anything to do with stimulus checks/politics, I get that elsewhere, thank you). When my results popped up, it was stimulus checks and Apple. Also, I would do the videos, because I just like to read, and it would mysteriously start up again half way through the article. I'll stick with their website, though even there I'm forced to turn off videos. Too bad, I used to enjoy CNET so much more.

I hope the UK edition is brought back in future updates! I'm not sure why it was removed when it was perfectly fine and also all my saved bookmarks for the UK edition, I can no longer view! The US edition is no use to me, as the deals and majority of news and products are irrelevant due to different currencies and region! I liked the app when there was an option to choose regions in the app! Not by default (US edition).
