Reviews of BBC

  • Terrible Update

    Latest update ruins the app. The new format makes it harder to read and only shows the very top stories on main page. I used to at least browse headlines from all major regions/categories and click through a few articles a couple of times a day but now I don’t even open the app every day because the experience is so much worse. The developers really need to put the major categories back on the main screen or at least enable sideways swiping though categories instead of forcing a bunch of clicks to browse. Everything just loads and looks like a webpage instead of an app… if that’s what I wanted I’d go to the webpage. I hope the changes are reverted or I’ll have to find a new news source with a better app.
  • New app is terrible

    I loved the old app, using it on my iPads, 6th and 9th generation, for news world wide. However the newly revamped app is very frustrating. I have trouble scrolling and when I’m trying to scroll, the app thinks I’m clicking on something and when I try to get back, the back or close buttons don’t work well, and I have to tap them over and over to get back to where I was. Today the app froze and I had to reboot the iPad. This makes it time consuming to get my news and I might try the website, which is less convenient, but hopefully it will be a less aggravating experience.
  • Hate it- used to LOVE it

    Most people don’t like change; it usually doesn’t bother me. Admittedly, there’s always a few trade-offs or getting used to that happens with something new. This is NOT even close. I hate everything about it. The look, the login I can skip but still get Alex every single time, the colors, the lack of organization, the lack of content diversity, no personalization, same three to five stories that take a week to change sometimes. I can hardly find any other topics like science and art- just horror headlines. Used to feel like I got an international perspective - now it’s just the same feed as every other news outlet. Can’t view the images by clicking on them and there are far less of them. I know it costs money to create but how did it go so wrong overnight. Wished I didn’t have to have upgraded. So very disappointed, frustrated, and sad.
