Ratings and reviews

The app was crashing suddenly months ago when i was last using it (on a different phone and OS), and is still crashing just the same since i reinstalled it a few days ago. This usually happens while scrolling down an article or switching between articles. It just shuts down taking me back to my phone's home page. Takes a lot of patience to muddle through this nuisance for a couple of news articles.

Its quite a nice application. Nothing fancy in it, but nothing below par either, exactly how a news application is supposed to be. The swipe (to the left and the right) is too sensitive though, and that can be really annoying because at times you lose a piece in the middle of reading it as the app takes you to another one when all you were trying to do was scroll down.

0 star. With latest update, the has become very difficult to use. (Looking for other similar app now.) Observations: - After reading any news article, the app goes back to top of page. - Message to update app doesn't disappear even after update/ re installing app. - Too many ads then previous version. - Opens empty or incomplete article. - Hangs whenever it wants. (It was there in previous version as well) Thank you.
