Hasn’t Updated in Days

The app hasn’t updated in several days. The website is current - but the app itself is stuck.
Uninstalled and reinstalled. Did not help.

Corrupt Media Sources

Too many corrupt media sources to be credible or balanced. If I wanted CNN, NY Times, Vox, Slate, or HuffPo, I’d go to their websites myself. No chance of that happening.

Sorry app

This app is useless and when you try to remove it you cannot get rid of it. Kin to spam! Don’t do it!

Hijacked by ads

Every article I try to read gets hijacked by an ad before I get passed the headline. Got frustrated and deleted it.

Great app

Just missing local news.

Interesting

This channel has been good. I feel that they report the news within the obvious bias like CNN!

Not a very attractive app

With a yellow and white color palette I find myself wanting to get off this app ASAP. The sources provided are at times laughable. The quantity of different subjects is really low, and the app does not block pop ups for the linked sources, making them unreadable. I’ve been looking for an new aggregate since my old one went down, sadly this isn’t the one.

Too much garbage news

KNEWZ considers gossip as news and there is no way to keep it out of your news feed. KNEWZ doesn’t rotate topics as they should. Who really cares about perpetual Harry and Meghan updates?

Options

Variety of sources to fit your preference.

Real news

News where I don’t have to question what’s the truth or not.

Horrible

Advertisements, videos, pop up and begin playing without warning. Can’t read a news report without constant interruptions. No thanks

Too many pop ups

I rarely review anything but I was just trying to read an article and within 30 seconds 7 add poped up so annoying. Don’t get me wrong I do like the unbiased approach and has good articles. But every two seconds your trying to get rid of an ad.

Solid coverage

It’s a great news app with multiple source articles about relevant topics. The interface is very easy to use. I’d appreciate a dark mode. I don’t mind the ads at the current state, but if they become more intrusive as they usually do, please provide an ad-free option.

Response from developer

Hi gdiehl86, dark mode is now available in the latest version of the app. You can toggle dark mode on the app's settings screen.

Truly Balanced

Great aggregator; you get topics organized into groups of separate stories from varying points of view, which gives the opportunity to see more than just one biased side.

All the news available at knees!!

This is a great place to get the news. You get all versions but at least you get it all. You will find articles that the liberal press will not print. You may have to read the news from European publications ( if you want a different source than Fox News) to get all the news that’s happening in the US. Hooray knews!! I highly recommend this app!!

Far right aggregator

Has this for 10 minutes and it only shows far right talking points. This app is betting big on a Trump win to become another Fox or Breitbart. Shameful

Heavily weighted toward right-wing sources that spread false propaganda

I was so disappointed, hoping for an app that would provide a truly balanced news aggregation, to find that this app featured sources well-known for lies and sordid, baseless attacks on Democrats. I’m deleting it.

Almost unusable!

This app has a lot of information, I just wish it could be used without continuous, and annoying videos, advertising, and such. After very few news articles I trashed this thing.

Flooded with advertisements

I have not seen this many advertisements in any news app I have used. Every click is punishment. Just flooded with adds and annoying offers to subscribe.

Great aggregator, buggy app

This app frequently locks up and refreshes way too often while I’m in the middle of reading an article causing me to lose my place. It also freezes up all the time with pop up ads. It feels like 2007 with the poor ad handling.

Response from developer

Sorry about that, let's see if we can figure out what's up. Would you mind emailing us with more information so we can get this fixed for you? contact@knewz.com
