Good coverage of news

I’ve been following The Canadian Press beginning during an era before the internet. It’s a tremendously valuable resource.

Journalism at its best

Informative, quality fact checking information. Thank you Canadian Press for your dedication and integrity.

VERY LITTLE FREE NEWS WITH INTRUSIVE ADS

Good luck finding free news with this app. Every publication you click is greyed out, I’d say over 97% of the news is not free. Very disappointing and the ads are intrusive and have a wait time.

When an ugly ad pops up I just shut down the app completely.

oops

Cannot believe this has over 4 stars.
If I could give it no stars I would, terribly boring and pop up ads ..like every other Canadian news app.

No news only advertising

It doesn't work

Not organized

This website, unlike that of the Globe and Mail, does not appear to be organized in any meaningful way. It runs off in all directions and suffers from being cluttered. The news is presented on several different pages of our receiving tech equipment. I have been tempted on several occasions to cancel the service and still may do so.

Canada Press

I used to love Canada Free Press. But something changed and now I am not getting any good articles.

All the News

Canadian Press is a great collection of Canadian news sources in one place. The best way to keep abreast of what's happening in Canada.

Publicité agressive.

Je suis déçue de cette application. On nous impose à pleine page de la publicité non sollicitée, vulgaire et avec le son à tue-tête, de façon à être bien certain qu’on ne la ratera pas. Ai-je envie de voir des filles en bikini qui dansent sur une plage? Au cas où vous ne le sauriez pas, on est en 2022, et cette façon de faire est sexiste et dépassée.

Ads auto play audio

So you’re reading along and you respect that every now and then you’ll be accosted by an ad. The fair price for a free app, right?

But for an app dedicated to *reading*, it is not expected nor acceptable that such an ad would suddenly start talking to you. Glad this didn’t happen while I was in a quiet waiting room or some other awkward situation.

Otherwise, a great app. But it deserves one star because this is a dealbreaker. I’ve already deleted the app.

Crappy App

I realize this app is free but loading stories is sooooo slow usually because the size of the ads are huge and take forever to load or the news story jumps around as the ads load - very frustrating!

Mrs

This is the best news so far I had

Old news

Everything is like 5 day old no news here some just pop up subscription pages. Done with this app

Ads

When there are hundreds of other news apps, I have 0 reasons to use something that will spam my screen with ads.

Scary fear mongering covid deniers.

I was looking for more publishers to add to my home page when I came across Canada free press. Wow! The untrue crap that was coming from it! Covid fake! Masks harmful! What the heck? I thought this was a serious news app. I can't support this app if it publishes this harmful untrue material. People die from it! I really liked it for Victoria, BC news and am really, really disappointed in you.

Great

Used to be a good app

Until they started to run ads today. The ads are so frequent it is annoying. I will just go back to Apple News or find a better app.

Good app

Would give you five stars but first you need to segregate the free sources from the paywall sources.

Glad

Glad to see a Conservative Voice out of Canada!
