Ratings and reviews

I don't like that I can't scroll pages, like before the latest update. I have to go back to the original page and scroll for the next article. It’s very time consuming. Please change this to be able to scroll from page to page.

The format is too busy. I like a simple format without ads interspersed throughout the articles.

app is now basically nolonger usable, scrolling to view each new story takes for ever. Also automatic add for another news app pops up each time I open wect. No other apps on my phone are having this issue. I have deleted the app and reinstalled and still have the issues.
