Wanted to love it, but it's so jammed with ads it's useless! Don't get me wrong. I am a huge Google fan. I have 8 Google smart speakers to control 40+ smarthome devices. I have Google-powered Nest home cameras. I use Android Auto for managing navigation and finding destinations when I travel in either of our vehicles. But when I installed & tried to use this app to read articles, I found it super distracting, burying me in flashing pop-up ads covering text of news articles. I'm uninstalling!

I have been using this app for years. I love it - I would normally give it 5-stars. But I think your last update had a major bug in it. It has recently (& constantly) been freezing mid-scroll. I just tried to read a relatively short article and again it kept freezing, forcing me to close the App entirely and re-launch it each time. I swore if it froze a fourth time before I finished the article, I'd write a review - and here I am. I really want to keep using this app. Please fix it.

Overall it's great but any false moves regarding any article you click on will put monkey wrenches into your algorithm. There is also A LOT of repetition of articles & the worst is that they will change a title & it's accompaning photo. It also leads you on with far too many articles you can't read without a subscription for each. Ads are unbearable & can slow everything down or bring it to a screeching halt.
