Ratings and reviews

This news is great coverage. The app stinks! It always crashes, or won't load, says error, now it just says waiting for a commercial break please stand by, then it has the broadcast sound in the background, but not playing the actual feed. However, your advertisements...they play perfectly over and over each time I try to reload the content, so I know it's your app not my device. This is horrid!

Horrifyingly severe infestation with ads and commercials. If I try to watch the live broadcast, it suddenly stops in the middle of a report (the screen freezes), waits for a minute and then plays a commercial for at least a minute (count-down timer) which I would be forced to watch, before it returns to the regular broadcast. Since I'm absolutely not a fan of enforced brainwash attempts, I saw myself in the urge to uninstall this terrible app and find my news somewhere else.

Was a great app until it started randomly going to commercial break, even in the middle of reporters talking about a story. Went from great to useless, it's on commercial break more than playing the news! 12/5/19 - Checked back and the app is still trash, on "We'll Return in just a moment..." more than the news! You would think someone would've fixed this, it's poor timing and excessive.
