The current layout is at least better than the previous, but I still have major issues with the videos in the app. 99% of the time I try to watch one it freezes before the ad even starts. The fact that every video requires watching an ad (that's usually a 1/4 as long as the video itself) is annoying enough. But I can't even do that!! I've said it before, PLEASE release a paid version that works better. I would gladly subscribe if only the quality was better!!

16.1.8 has been released to fix this, you're still using the old version 16.1.7. Thank you for the feedback, this issue has already been fixed.

For the last 2 weeks this app has been increasingly freezing up more and more. All the other apps on my phone do not do this. It seems to freeze up even more around the time that it adds an alert when there is a major news story breaking. Speaking of, most of the breaking news stories are usually very uncon sequential and overrated. App has become useless. I've used it for the last five years, but I am getting rid of it. We'll have to get our news elsewhere.

Revised 2/10/2022. It stopped crashing finally. But now, when I type in the comment box, the box gets 4-5 times longer. It's as if I'd hit 'enter' 30 or 40 times. If I try to delete anything or make my any changes to my comments, my cursor goes to the bottom of the box. Over and over. It's maddening. I'll say it again; I've been using this app for several years now. I'm about to uninstall it. You folks took a good platform and turned it to absolute garbage.

Hello Melody, thanks for your feedback. We are receiving a higher number of comments than usual right now. We’ve had to be selective about the stories on which we accept comments in order to maintain a high-quality environment. -LD
