Let me block content

It looked promising. But then I realized it doesn't let me block content, so I keep being fed things I don't care about. There's no "show me less content like this" or "show me less content with these keywords". Add some automatic keywording/categorization and the app would become useful.

Improvement Idea

Needs a better back button on the bottom or swipe to go back after reading an article.

AI summaries are often blatantly wrong

I really like the way the articles are presented, but the AI summaries, which you must navigate through first, are often very wrong. Stuff like “Elon Musk, CEO of Amazon,” or more often, attributing quotes to the opposite person, or mixing up who did what, for example, guy is told to turn down his music on the NYC subway, and guy playing music stabs the person who asked him to turn it down. The AI summary says the guy who was playing loud music was stabbed after not turning the music down. I am having a hard time trusting anything I read as at least 25% (or more) of the AI summaries are just flat out false information. I wish there was a way to not have the AI summaries at all because they are not ready yet for consumption.

This app is a joke

This app puts far-left news outlets to the “lean left” or “center” is all I need to know about before deleting this garbage. Also you can’t use it unless you pay huge amount of money. No thanks, Grok AI is much better, and free!

Significant improvement

It would be unfair not to update my review , the app work well and it is. Last update improved significant. Having said that the old iPhone such as iPhone 13 would appreciate some more improvement

Tailored News

Let me know news really hits it out of the park with their AI filtered news summaries. With the deluge of news on the Internet, informed readers need to be supplied with the information to make the best decisions. With Let Me Know news you can do that!

Finally a News Source I Can Use!

I was so happy to find this app — it helps me get the news I am interested in reading quickly and I can learn what I want to know, fast. I don’t have to wade through all the garbage news I am not interested in, first. I sometimes find a few spelling or grammar errors in the AI summaries once in a while but I am sure they will work to fix those soon. Thanks for this app!

Not sure…

Update:Aug 7 Problem is at my end. When my Cellular Service is good & I’ve tried the App it works great. If problem is with the app or at my end. Managed to select Free Lifetime but think problem is at my end. Cellular Service may be too slow for this app I think but I’ll keep trying to use it. It does look interesting. I’d recommend it.

I can`t find one

Generally sluggish

Easy to delete channel but can’t get it back. No side bar indicator as to know end of page.
Delete app and reload. The app has no memory bought it free for life and only give me free trial. RIDICULOUS

Retry

This is my second review. Initially I had much difficulty with this app. I am happy to say that since the issues that led me to post a two star review have been resolved, I now post a 5 star review. LetMeKnow is definitely an AI generated news app. That being said, it has become my go-to app for world, national and local news reviews. Great job!
I was able to log on to my iPhone and iPad using the same account by going to the “more” tab and clicking on “profile”. On my iPhone I used the number at the top of the screen and transferred the number to my iPad. Works like a charm.
Many thanks to the developer for all of the help and improvements.

Below is the initial review. Forget it! All problems have been resolved.

This would be an outstanding app, if it would only work. I have two problems. When trying to log in to the app, I get “Something went wrong” and a “Retry” button. I have hit the Retry button many times, the app appears to think about it for 10-15 seconds then back to retry. Frustrating. Secondly, I placed this app on my phone and iPad. When trying to use it on the iPad, it wants me to purchase a subscription. I thought a purchase would transfer to all devices. Overall, when it works, it is a fantastic source of news. I know you had a difficulties recently. I’m hoping they will resolve soon.

Currently working fine. They fixed it quickly! Great job.

Something went wrong….

After 20 minutes of errors. I’m giving up. Total waste of time. Free or not.

After an email from the dev advising the issues of 29th July were sorted out I reinstalled the all and wasted more time with “…something went wrong”
I’m done.
