    Developer Response

    Hi there, Sorry to hear about your experience in the past. Please let us know if you still feel the app is not up to scratch, we have released a number of enhancements and bug fixes since this review and would love your feedback. Kind regards, The Dev Team

  • Has not updated since mid July

    Terrible app has not updated a single news story since 21 July 2020. Technically useless as a news app.

  • PATHETIC

    Pathetic. Every time you go into a story a pop up with the story after the one you want to see appears and IT DOESN’T ALWAYS GO AWAY blocking the content of the story you want to read.
    Another point - why should I subscribe to something that should be free. I can get the News off News24 or BBC for free❓❓
