### 3/5 — Worst updated version

*2021-10-27*

The latest update is the worst I have experienced. 即時新聞seems to sell ad instead of allowing one to view the news. App performance was so unreliable. It kept dropping and disappeared.

### 2/5 — Many bugs recently

*2019-10-29, version 3.3.1*

This used to work fine but recently a lot of bugs came up:
每日明報section is now completely blank. Only the 即時新聞section works.
On iPadOS some controls are turning black.
MingPao really needs to fix these bugs. Please also give an iPad version.

### 1/5 — Way too slow

*2017-02-22*

Everything in this app is slow slow slow; with the exception of ad, which is 100x faster than the actual content.

I gave up on using this app due to the slowness, as well as the fast and annoying frequent ad.

It's very frustrating to wait forever for the actual content yet the ad popup instantaneously.

Developers should look into a way to throttle the download in background

### 1/5 — Annoying pop up

*2016-11-02*

Whenever I turn off the screen then back on, annoying pop up come up every time.  Same ad every time. Very annoying.

### 2/5 — still lacking support for native  display resolution on iPhone 6/+

*2015-09-29*

And iPhone 6s, 6s plus are already out.

### 1/5 — Do not support iPhone 4 anymore ? Why ?

*2015-01-10*

How come my app was gone, u do not support iPhone 4 anymore ? Why ?

### 1/5 — 這個更新版本更差！1.6.5沒有閃退非常好!

*2014-11-20, version 2.0.7*

未更新前那個版本1.6.5 非常好！更新後 閃退非常嚴重! 為什麼要更新到一個廢物版本？

### 1/5 — Crash

### 1/5 — Not good enough

*2014-10-20, version 2.0.2*

The current version provides Sharing to Facebook only. Disappointed.

### 2/5 — Can't access offline.

*2014-10-16*

It's progression or regression? i used to be able download news contents in the app and read them on the go when I don't have online access during my commute. How "clever" you take that function out, this app is not that attractive and useful as it used to be

### 1/5 — Problem on iOS 6

### 1/5 — You call this iPhone 5 support!?

*2013-02-10*

### 1/5 — 廣告太多

*2026-08-09*

睇五篇文章有六個廣告。 小量廣告ok, 但這個app多到呢.. 不見意下載

每按一次就彈一個全版倒計時廣告，體驗勁勁勁x無限地差！果斷棄睇！

### 1/5 — Ridiculous number of ads!

*2021-03-30*

This app has long been utterly destroyed by more and more frequent and annoying ads. Many of them just repeat ad nauseam with loud noise and no way to X/kill right away.

The app will make your phone so hot when you used it for a while.

不要不中不英，不要不倫不類。

### 1/5 — 濫發廣告

*2019-09-19*

更新版本後廣告次數比以前頻密三倍，一單新聞有三層廣告，反而造成反效果令我決定將呢個app移除，用返網上版本。

### 5/5 — News Reader

*2011-03-08*

It is like living in Hong Kong.

### 4/5 — Much better than HK Yahoo News

*2012-07-24, version 1.1.1*

I used to read yahoo hk news but it has many errors since the last few weeks which is very annoying. It prompted me to look for other news apps and glad to find this one. Simple to use and load very quickly with images. Ideally more news articles please.

### 4/5 — 翻牆來說贊！

贊！希望早日出街Kindle可下載

### 4/5 — Best among Chinese News

*2011-02-19*

### 4/5 — 大好き

*2010-11-26*

大好き

### 3/5 — Bug Fix Pls

*2025-08-28*

每次一按其中一個新聞通知，其他的通知總會全部消失。

在閱讀其中一則新聞時，如果跳出app或視窗轉去其他app時，新聞通知都會全部消失。

好像這個bug快一年了還沒有人改正？
