  • Just even a small update would help, but want more

    Please update for better resolution and add a dark mode! Also I'm even willing to pay $.99 or $1.99 a year to give rid of the HORRIBLE ads you have. I understand you rely on that revenue, but it's just a bad experience. I appreciate your thoughts and commentary. That $1/$2 year I wouldn't do if you didn't keep your app up to date with all the tech you report on, i.e.-3D Touch, swipe left/right for read/unread, etc... all screen size support

    Hello, we have terminated the third-party ad network that was serving those takeover ads (these are usually the result of rogue advertisers, not the ad network themselves). Please give the site another try as we've eliminated the issue. Also, if you can, please edit your review accordingly. Thank you!
  • Acting weird

    This app is acting weird. As I am reading a article it automatically sends me
    to the App Store.
    Then today a warning pops up saying my phone has been affected with a virus. I clicked ok and the app went blank. Just happen so now I hope there is no issues and it was just nothing.
  • Annoying ads

    While I've loved MDNs content, this app, including their website, has the worst ads implementation. Ads auto redirecting to App Store, and when returning, continues to redirect. Today's ad produced a pop up that started "your iPhone may have been infected while browsing! ...", then redirected to App Store. I am moving on to using another Apple news site as a result!!

  • Redirects to buy Malware

    I want to love this app but I find it constantly redirecting me automatically to the App Store to buy Malware. Why does Mac Daily News allow this to happen? Please fix.
  • Was great but now it's adware.

    I used MacDaily News for all of my Mac/Apple news. But now it's become so heavily in ad use it has become unusable. I tired to use the app but keeps taking me to the App Store to promote another app. After several attempts I had enough. Here we are writing a review and soon to delete the app. MacDaily News was it worth it?

  • Intrusive ads! Unbearable!

    Hey guys you made the app useless ever since these ads force open the App Store every couple of seconds when in the article. What the use of the news app if you can't read the news being interrupted as you go. Fix it please.

    Update
    I just removed the app altogether from my devices. Found better apps with Apple news. No adds anymore!

  • Opening Ads?

    Update: they still haven't fixed the automatic ads problem. Avoid at!

    This app automatically opens ads when you try to read an article!!! Are you kidding me??? This app is total junk!!! Look elsewhere for apple news!!! It's not just bad, it's super bad! 😕👎 Its a shame cause I really enjoy reading their articles.

  • Too many ads

    And allows more rubbish political feedback from users than actual Apple news discussion. Don't recommend

    Crash & Burn.
    Getting better. Fewer crashes.
    Just tried to post. Ha the app kept randomly stopping me from finishing. Moving me out of the comment box and unselected. Tapping right back in made it jump right back out. I give up. 🙄
    Deleted and installed again. Restarted and cleared app cache. No luck. Maybe MDN App doesn't play well with 10.3

    It sure saved me some space by upgrading. 👍🏻

    First Mac site or App I go to. But it's getting harder to keep it up. The ads are just to much. Ad blocker kicks you out if installed on macOS. I get it they need ads. But it's just to many. If they weren't flashing and blinking I might actually patronize them. And also the redirects!! That is so annoying to just get moved to the App Store showing me a game? I never wanted to see!

    So I just use the built in ad remover declutter feature.
    3 ½ horizontal lines in the URL bar. . . Name of feature escapes me.
    But it's great when you need it. Both on iOS and macOS.

  • Deleting it...obnoxious ads, overly political content

    At one point, MDN was my go-to site for Apple news, and their app was decent.

    The site as a whole has become more and more political, obviously run by far-right fanatics who drool over Trump every chance they can manufacture.

    I could ignore that, but the ads on the app are completely obnoxious. While in the middle of reading an article, video ads will repeatedly pop up and take over your screen, without any touching of the screen on your part.

    Skip it. Just go to Macrumours, AppleInsider, or another site via browser and leave MDN for the far-right ad lovers.
