40/29 News User Reviews

Top reviews

Irritating

The only problem and it’s a big one is getting a notification but not being able to find it if you don’t click the notification immediately!

Good News App

Good app, easy to find stories I’m looking for, except when I hear alarm for a breaking news story. If I don’t get to my phone quickly when I go to see what’s up I can’t find the story. Other wise it’s easy to navigate.

👎🏻

Video commercials irritating; find myself using app less and less; previously I was a frequent user. Hate being unable to find notification story when I go to it; not always practical to check immediately.

Breaking News

When I get a breaking news notification and click on it, it doesn’t take me to the breaking news. Also the ads are pretty pointless. If I am trying to read an article and an ad pops up, It plays sound. It doesn’t matter if my sound is off or not.

Love getting the news quickly

But like others have stated, if you don’t open the headline as soon as it comes across the feed, it is difficult (if not impossible) to find the actual story. But other than that. Love it.

Great Local News Appa

Love how it alert us with hot news. Help me stay on tops of my local. Also love the weather warning for my area.

Rarely a problem

Love this app. Only issue I have is, when I get a notification about a news story or weather alert, if I don’t click on the notification immediately, and just open the app to find it myself, I can’t always find it.

Was the best now the worst!

Before some of the last iOS upgrades I always use 40/29 news app (when I wanted news) and the 40/29 weather app (when I wanted weather) I started getting alerts that the weather app was going away, so I updated bad mistake. The new 40/29 News/weather app is the worst app ever! what happened to all the weather features? Very disappointing. Will be deleting the new app shortly unless they improve soon.

Great news and weather

This is a great way to get the latest news. Also they have the best weather radar!

Time Is of the Essence

When the weather gets bad in my local area and I pull out the app to check it on the live stream, the last thing I want is to wait to see what’s going on as you make me watch a friggin’ local commercial. For every commercial you make me watch during an emergency situation, I will intentionally not use their product or services.
