The old app says it's discontinued and forces the update to this version, which crashes immediately upon opening. Adding because of developer response: Uninstalling, deleting all data, rebooting, installing directly didn't change anything, and can't get to the feedback form in the app, because like I said, it crashes immediately. Open app, count to 1, app crashes. Nothing has time to load except the prompt to allow notifications (doesn't matter if I pick yes or no either)

Everytine I open the app, the message pops up that I need to update. I click on that, which brings me to the Google Play store, I select open and only then I can use it. This happens every single time and it's annoying. I'm using a Google Pixel, with the latest Android OS. The app itself once I can use it, is good. Please fix this issue.

I'm updating from my previous review of two stars to four. My reason for two was that the content wouldn't load. Now it does albeit the speed in which it does is a tad slow. This app is a great compliment to the evening broadcast. I recommend it to anyone interested in keeping up to date with Vancouver and provincial news.
