It would be a good app if they fix the same old issue I keep complaining about. Where ever there is an embedded picture advertisement it completely cuts off the train of thought of the previous sentence. You will find that often you are reading along but the ad cuts off the end of the sentence and you are left wondering what the final, sometimes important part of the paragraph, actually is? And no, it does not continue after the ad. It just starts the next paragraph. Twice before I have complained about this over a multi year period to no response. And to add insult to injury they now have real pop up video ads destroying our enjoyment of the app. Honestly I would rather pay a few dollars for ad free use. This could be so much better. Thanks for never listening, app developers. ### 3/5 — Ads *2026-05-29, version 11.0.1* The most recent update makes it virtually impossible to read an article without opening the embedded ad due to delays in scrolling. ### 4/5 — great, but needs picture in picture support *2026-05-15, version 11.0.1* I want to have it on in the background while i scroll through other apps ### 3/5 — Feedback *2026-04-07, version 11.0.0* Doesn’t tell us the truth like social media. Look I’m one who dislikes social. But when it comes to the important things we all should know it’s here for us unlike city news. Hides the most important ### 4/5 — Traffic *2026-04-01, version 11.0.0* The traffic section was really helpful, I hope it will be coming back. Thank you. ### 2/5 — App not working *2026-03-22, version 10.10.0* I use to love the app. But all of a sudden it’s not working. It keeps telling me to check my internet but my internet is working great. Guess I will have to find something else. ### 1/5 — Impossible to initializing??? *2026-03-22, version 10.10.0* Failure to launch. Message says “impossible to initializing” lol. Seriously, who works here?? ### 3/5 — Too much lag *2026-03-20, version 10.10.0* I find that the upload time for articles is too slow and I don’t get this with other news apps. Also articles are sticky meaning that they stay open after I hit the close button repeatedly. ### 1/5 — Cardi B in Top Stories *2026-03-17, version 10.10.0* Just deleted your app because Cardi B not selling out in Hamilton was in my “Top Stories”. Wow! Unbelievable! You should give yourselves a raise! So many national and global events affecting Canadians and Carbi B is in your Top Stories. Well done! ### 2/5 — 2026 app is too slow unresponsive *2026-03-17, version 10.10.0* The app has become very slow with the recent change this year. When I click the close x-button, on foreground window , but no response, so click again, same thing, so click and click again. Eventually, I am taken to a screen where I didn’t want to go, as if I had clicked the background screen. It gets frustrating! It’s all because the slow response time of the app. Also, don’t click videos to see a minute of ads, ridiculous ! ### 3/5 — To Liberal *2026-03-14, version 10.10.0* I really like the App & CP24 . Only thing is it is way to Liberal point of view for me & they are way to Left sided media ! ### 3/5 — 2026 app is slow unresponsive *2026-02-28, version 10.10.0* The new app has become very slow with the recent change this year. Response time is slow. When I click the close x-button, on foreground window , but no response, so click again, same thing, so click and click again. Eventually, I am taken to a screen where I didn’t want to go, as if I had clicked the background screen. It gets frustrating! It’s all because the slow response time of the app. Also, I never click videos to se a minute of ads, ridiculous ! ### 2/5 — Doesn’t work well on an IPad *2026-02-18, version 10.10.0* App lags and locks up.Doesnt scroll at times.Have to exit out and restart app do to freezing. ### 1/5 — New format 👎🏻 *2026-02-13, version 10.10.0* The new format with the pop up articles is difficult to use and extremely frustrating. Please make is simple and put it back to the format from a couple updates ago. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Still Slow As Molassea *2026-07-30, version 11.1.1* App is very slow when closing articles. The ads are annoying when they keep popping up. Articles get cut off constantly and you have to guess the rest of the words. Same app as the CTV News one and same issues. ### 1/5 — TERRIBLE WASTE OF TIME *2026-07-11, version 11.1.0* YOU DIDNT EVEN PUT MY REVIEW UP. WHY ? FREAKING EMBARRASSED BY YOUR OWN CREATION??? I REPEAT, 4 FREAKING ADS BEFORE I GET TO STORY! WAIT WAIT WAIT…. 4 FREAKING COMMERCIALS JUST TO SEE A 30 second video clip. OUTRAGEOUS! I OWE YOU NOTHING! ### 1/5 — Brutal app *2026-06-12, version 11.1.0* This app is unbelievable. It’s ad laden and every time you try and scroll, a new page advertising companies pops up and opens a new browser page (mostly Amazon). ### 1/5 — TERRIBLE WASTE OF TIME *2026-06-03, version 11.0.1* YOU DIDNT EVEN PUT MY REVIEW UP. WHY ? FREAKING EMBARRASSED BY YOUR OWN CREATION??? I REPEAT, 4 FREAKING ADS BEFORE I GET TO STORY! WAIT WAIT WAIT…. ### 1/5 — Ads in Articles Forced *2026-05-29, version 11.0.1* The ads in the news articles are so large that every time you scroll down it opens them. I previously deleted this app because it was pushing so many ads and now I returned to and it’s a new issue. I want to be able to scroll and article without Amazon opening three times ### 1/5 — Garbage, goodbye *2026-05-20, version 11.0.1* I used to use this app several times a day. I found it informative. Now between the popup ads and excessively delayed responsiveness of the app itself I cant use it without screaming colorful expletives due to my unnecessary frustration. I don’t need an app to stress me out. And now it’s deleted. ### 1/5 — Liberal propaganda *2026-04-19, version 11.0.1* Garbage ### 1/5 — App Not Opening *2026-03-23, version 10.10.0* The app has not opened since Saturday morning. It gives me an error message that says “impossible to initializing the application”, which isn’t even grammatically correct. If it’s not fixed by tomorrow I’m removing the app. ### 1/5 — App not working *2026-03-23, version 10.10.0* Tried to open the app this morning and couldn’t. I have a IPhone 13, IOS 26 3.1. ### 1/5 — Error message 😓 *2026-03-23, version 10.10.0* Error message when launching app. (Impossible to initializing the application.
