Ratings and reviews

Before updating advertisement presentation will be 5, now I want to give 0 but the app cannot allow me to do this. Sooooooooooooooo ignored for the advertisement popping-up every time when I returned back to the app. This was greatly affecting me to read the news. Sometime I need to read the news offline!!

UPDATE: Thanks for the quick update, now I can open the app on my Chromebook. Using it on my phones and tablets without major problem, but sometimes too many notifications (got like 20+ notifications on my phone a day...prefer an option for only major news maybe?). When on full-screen mode, videos / live stream don't keep the screen always on so the screen will timeout and stop streaming after a while, this has been a problem in previous versions too so please look into it.

The app would stop working suddenly whenever there's a news notification sent out by TVB, and you would have to re-launch the app again to resume watching...., which could take upto several minutes. If the news notifications are frequent, well good luck because there's no way you can watch a complete news session without interruption. This started happening since their recent update to 2.4.0 and it still has not been fixed in the current update 2.4.2. That's 3 updates in a few days and it's only getting you more and more frustrated. Well, please test your app before releasing it.
