Ratings and reviews

Highly insufficient app. When you open it to read a newsfeed, you are constantly met with a blank screen that says "Whoops, we're sorry. Looks like we're unable to load this content right now." This has been happening for months. In other words, all you can do is see the headlines. If you click on any story, it takes you to the blank error screen. After all this time, you would think someone would notice that the app is unusable in it's current state, yet months have gone by.

Poor experience all around! Half the articles are unaccessible and the app just tells you to try another section. This is completely unacceptable.

This is a scam. I called to cancel the subscription in January. I agreed to accept delivery because I had paid through April 9. They keep charging me. I've called customer service twice in the last couple of weeks and they promise that there is no subscription, but somehow I keep owing more money for a subscription that I canceled. The online portal is a joke. I can't see what these charges are.
