Ratings and reviews

No longer a useful news aggregator. It used to be my go-to, and I loved it. But it now places a far heavier emphasis on commentary than news, the suggested storyboards are far too often and far too useless, and it doesn't seem capable of identifying duplicate stories. I ended up spending more time flipping through than I did reading. It is a beautiful UI, and if you want non-news aggregated magazines (or want cable news transcribed on your phone) ymmv. As-is, I've deleted it from my phone.

Please don't take me back to the first story when I go back to the list! This app could be great, but when I use the phone's back button or the one in the UI, about 60% of the time it takes me to the first story on the list. Oh my gosh how frustrating. I have to swipe down to get to the one I came from. Also randomly the stories repeat when you flip through them. I tried Flipboard because Google news sucks so bad (mobile data and battery killer), but I am so frustrated about this seemingly minor thing that makes me crazy!

Horrible. I really liked flipboard until they started running ads that prevent you from reading the content last week. The last time I tried I had at least 6 ads in a row, each at least 30 seconds long, and everytime the new ad started, the text of the article would disappear. I only had about 5 seconds between ads to try and read anything. I gave up after 6 ads. I can find my news elsewhere.
