I really need help on the settings on Google Play so I can get it Installed and Uninstall Apps. I really need lots of Updates and Late Breaking News Coast To Coast. I'm really going to look great and to avoid a lot of stress by doing Crossword Puzzle during my spare time. I really need Troubleshooting Steps to get it fixed right away. I want to look ahead and see if they need help on something. For example, I seen a lots of Play Store and choose the one that fits rather than going over. thanks.

Love the reporting but stay away from their app. It totally took over my phone. I mean it changed the look of all other icons, replaced my clock, weather widgets, text app, etc. It doesn't even look like my phone screen anymore. I'm deleting the app and hope everything returns to my original look. Again... I support them but NOT their app. Terrible. I thank the developer for responding to explain what happened. Suggest making it clearer in the app to prepare people for what could happen if the wrong selection is made. I've modified my rating from a 1 to a 3. Love the news and info without the censorship.

Thanks for the feedback – this was created to upgrade your OEM home screen and for easy access to content that you actually care about. You can access the content without setting it as your default home screen from the app’s toolbar. You can reset your home screen using the Default Apps settings in Android or the Support section in Home Settings.

I was in my accuweather app looking at a severe weather alert when I noticed a rewind play and fast forward button at the bottom. I thought, COOL! I can listen to the forecast. So I opened it and had to install the news app and it changed and took over my entire phone! Everything was different. It was now my hone screen and everything. Very invasive! Horrible horrible app!.
