As of recently loading news stories is really slow. Lots of ads but I can live with those IF the app works reliably. In a story lasting 2 or 3 screens there are 5 or more "white screens" that you have to back out and start over to get to the next white screen. Getting real close to deleting app totally. Most annoying is the "WHITE SCREENS". Walt Smith.

Breaking news is more like breaking advertisements. Whenever I get a breaking news alert and tap on the notification, it immediately loads a full screen advertisement. The ad dismiss button isn't always in the same place. All I need to see is the breaking news item, not the same ad over and over. Please find a different way to host advertisements or give the ability to turn those off, at least turn them off for breaking news items, such as Covid-19 news.

Ad-ridden, click-bait vague headlines! Specifically infuriating during this covid-19 crisis, every notification is completely vague, giving the smallest amount of info just to click into the app and get a full-screen ad, only to have a white screen or say the article couldn't be found. It's not worth keeping on my phone if it gives me more ads then useful information.
