### 2/5 — This apps needs help

*2023-03-11*

Just installed this, and just deleted it.
Poor layout, glitchy video performance, each video views requires watch a long commercial.
Will go back to the website.

### 2/5 — has some issues

*2021-07-31*

I love this news cast but the app doesn’t show me the complete picture being reported at the top of the news story. it increases in size and will only allow half the face of the person or half of the scene on the pic because it zooms in too much. please fix it.

### 2/5 — Never up to date

*2020-02-11*

I have several news apps on my iPhone, and all but this app have the latest breaking news. This app still features yesterday’s news when I open it in the morning.

### 2/5 — Won’t Cast

*2018-11-28*

I got this app because I wanted to be able to cast the news onto my TV, but I’m not able to. This is very disappointing and I will be deleting this app until I am able to cast from it.

### 3/5 — Needs improvement

*2017-05-03*

Whenever I receive a breaking news alert and I tap on the alert notice on my screen, I'm never taken to the story. It just takes me to the main page of the app and I have to search high and low for the story. Most of the time I'm unable to find the breaking news story. Also, when trying to bring up the weather, the app crashes.

**Developer response:** Hi -
We have released a brand new version that I would hope that you would give a try.  Delete the current one from your device and grabs the update from the store.  Please let me know how that works out for you.  Thanks, Jeff

### 1/5 — The worst

*2015-01-03, version 3.40*

Probably the worst and most shallow news app on my phone.

### 1/5 — They don't update the news often.

*2013-08-20*

Takes way to long for news updates. Power has been out since 7 pm and its 9pm. All of my city 100k pop, and smaller cities out of power.

### 1/5 — won’t allow me to permanently delete it! It keeps popping back up on my Home Screen!

*2022-08-13*

When I go to the App Store I only have an option to hide it. I want it totally deleted from my purchased app list. I had to contact apple, seems like a hack or a scam.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2021-09-01*

App went to asking something after I opened it and it froze 😮🤔

### 1/5 — Still cannot cast

*2020-08-21*

I was very disappointed to see that I still wasn’t able to cast this app to my tv. I downloaded the app in hopes to be able to watch on my tv but sadly that is not the case. Also the news is always yesterday’s news it’s never up to date.

### 1/5 — Glitchy

*2020-07-16, version 7.30.0*

Can’t even open the app.

### 1/5 — Beyond frustrating

*2018-03-12*

When you get a notification for a breaking story you are taken to the Newsfeed & are unable to find the breaking story. This happens every time, not just a fluke. I do not recommend this app. 0 stars.

### 1/5 — I’ve had it! Time to uninstall!

*2017-09-28*

Too many times I’ll receive a notification about a news story and when I open the notification I can’t find the article anywhere! Sometimes, yes, I’ll be taken to the article for which I tapped on the notification. But other times, like just a few minutes ago, it takes me the the main page and I can’t find anything related to the story I wanted to read about. 1 star, download another news source.

**Developer response:** Hi -
Sorry to read about the problems with the push notifications.  I will let the news room team know about the problems as they are a result of human error.  I do hope that you will give it another try after I let them know.  Thanks, Jeff

### 1/5 — Won't work

*2017-06-20*

Every time I try to open the app it crashes. It worked fine until the update. Sad, I used this app a lot.

**Developer response:** Hi -
I'm sorry to hear about the problems with the app.  Would you please delete (if you have not already) and try to run the update from the store?  Please let me know how that worked out for you.  Thanks, Jeff

### 1/5 — Bombs

*2017-06-14, version 7.0.0*

Newest version will not open. It bombs as soon as I try to open the app. I'm have a iPhone 5 w/ iOS 10.2.1

### 1/5 — IPad hostile

*2015-06-27, version 4.0.2*

Doesn't work worth a crud on my new iPad Mini. Will be uninstalling just as soon as I finish writing this.

### 1/5 — More ad's than a questionable website

*2015-06-19*

Not only do you get the ad bar at the bottom of the app (which is ok) but also when reading an article you'll get randomly transfer to App Store and harassed to download apps. Deleted it after it just got annoying. Mediocre app design also.
