The app consumes a lot of data and also causes overheating and a general slow-down of my phone's performance after using it for some minutes. Please fix this issue because I have a high regard for Punch News. Thank you.

The website is not interactive enough on search for stories. For example, I saw a headline today, 10/11/25 on PENCOM beginning disbursement of the #758bn payment for arrears of increments, gratuity etc in December , 2025 but it disappeared. Efforts to search for it all evening have not been fruitful.

It would have been one of the best means of staying updated with what happens around us, in terms if news breaking. But unfortunately and disappointinly too, it's not a reliable app, as it frequently freezes and rudely stops working.
