Horrible

Far left radical news. Never report the truth

Video auto play is so intrusive…

I like cbs news… but their video autoplay interrupts my music and distracts from reading the article… I just use a different news source instead.

It’s good but could be great if…

Money Watch has stock and index prices at the top in a banner. Kinda crazy it’s not. You can’t explode images. You can’t flip your device. This app is great on iPads but sucks on iPhones. Swing and a miss.

Biased

I can always tell from the notification that it’s from CBS.

Can’t enlarge print size

Should allow print size control. Use a font that is easier to read. Photos can’t be enlarged. For goodness sakes - you’re CBS. Get this done.

No dark mode is an example of how behind it is. STILL!

Needs to catch up on a lot of basic missing features in 2021.

App breaks daily

Constant buffering and crashes.
Even after upgrading my internet, this app is practically unusable. It constantly loses connection and dies, especially on my Apple TV. Highly disappointed

I no longer trust CBS News

I make this short a sweet.
I used to love CBS News. But I lost my trust in them thanks to Bari Weiss. However I will continue to support the local CBS News.

Cbs news live breaking news

Top stories and local news

Pages not fully loading

Many of the pages are only partially loading. Typically the starting pages load but the last half doesn’t load leaving a blank screen as I scroll through the article

If everything is ‘Breaking’ News then nothing is news

Many of the items that come in as Breaking News, simply are not Breaking. There is no way to filter this regarding notification settings. If everything is urgent, nothing is urgent. I believe Dwight D Eisenhower said “What is important is seldom urgent and what is urgent is seldom important.”

No more freedom of the press

CBS sold out, sad this was my favorite source of news and now I can't trust it to tell the truth

Unreliable

App freezes too often. “News” lacks the detail and objectivity one can find on other news apps. Dokoupil is a MAGA hand puppet.

Niki Glaser said it best, “CBS News, America's newest place to C BS news”

Boycott

We have Canceled all Paramount+ and CBS News

No more independent reporting

CBS is lost! The flag ship of U.S. news reporting is gone. Barri Weiss is apparently blind to the right wing push from CBS ownership. As a registered independent voter I don’t want bias in my news. That is why I have watched CBS for decades (I am 73). I am outraged that S. Pelley has been fired along with so many other storied reporters. I am removing my CBS app on my phone and tablet. I am done with unqualified ownership!

Propaganda

I wish I could block this garbage

Too bad

Too bad CBS has become like fox a state tv for trump!

Garbage app

Keeps wanting notifications enabled.
Junk. Trash. Censored news. Maga trash.

Shame on you

You had an incredible news division and handed it over to hacks. Bari Weiss and her minions are working to destroy independent journalism for her boss and nepo baby David Ellison. I wouldn’t trust CBS news anymore than the National Enquirer. I trust independent reporters & foreign news sources for real information.

Untrustworthy and embarrassing

I can’t trust that the news coming out of CBS isn’t propaganda. This could be the best run app on earth, but its content is useless if not incredibly harmful to democracy. Anything under CBS or Paramount is toxic.
