The app logs me out

I have to log in again after each article

Now makes you pay for use

Used this app daily for years. Journalism was always very biased but had some interesting articles so was part of my regular routine. Now requires paying so will be deleting for good.

Ads

New video pop-up ads take up almost half my screen.

Pop up slop video

Pop up video blocks news articles, with no way to close the video. Are there any UI designers working for this organization?

I see enough advertising

I loved this app, and then you had to start charging. I guess all those advertisements I muddled through didn't pay the bills, huh? I'm so up to there with everyone having their hand out at me! Off to MSNOW app until they do the same.

Bad upgrade

App has so many pop ups and ads now, one can hardly read the articles

Fraud alert

It claims there is a free option for the link, but it is not an option on any link I hit. False advertising.

Not worth minimum $10

I cannot believe that a site that I would come to over the years to read some brief articles. I could not imagine paying the $20 full access let alone $10 access or even a $.01 version as there are 100 other great news apps that do not try to rip off their few loyal glancers. I would say readers but no article on this site can’t be fully read in 2-3 mins tops. Really sad and a terrible PR MOVE unless they are already going down they may be trying to make a buck on the way down.

WTF!!!

I have to pay now? Goodbye

Subscription required

Apparently you now need a subscription to use this app and they never told us. How can you claim to be “News” if you paywall the “news”? It can’t be important news or else it wouldn’t be paywalled. No stars for oligarchs. One star required to leave a review

Information one can trust

I trust the information on Huffington. I also like that most information is given in a straightforward and plain way.

Can’t just read articles

What’s up with all the music playing? Just want to read the articles without noise. I have to turn volume off to do so. Very annoying, make me not pay for subscription.

These people are weird

I wanted to give this site a chance, and I did for a good 1-2 months or so, but there’s just some creepy stuff going on in these people still. I thought those days were over or at least coming to a close, they are absolutely not…. Sheesh..

Journalism, not propaganda

True journalism and reporting are the only tools we have to be an educated electorate (esp since this country devalues and eliminates education). Stay out of the dark - the light of responsible journalism is our only way forward when under fascist, anti-american rule.

Love Huff Post

I love the truth telling headlines, honest stories and so much more! Bravo!

Reliable Media

HuffPost is one of the most reliable and trustworthy media. I depend on its journalism to keep me aware of what is actually going on. Bravo! Keep up the good work.

Keeps me informed!

The Huffington Post just as a great job looking over the whole territory and bringing me important information about a good in the bad of this country. Thank you very much

Conway

Conway takes on trump properly!!!
Finally somebody talks for the people

News You Can Trust

I follow Huff post for it wide ranging coverage. I often seek the ‘Huff’s’ take on a story I may have read on AP or Reuters. I find the general liberal view to be more engaging and informative

Still getting ads

I paid the subscription fee to avoid the ads you get while playing the games. After the update I am now getting ads.
