### 2/5 — Not the Same NDTV Anymore

*2026-07-29, version 26.07.09*

In my opinion, NDTV is no longer the news channel it used to be. I don’t find its coverage balanced or reliable, and I feel the reporting often lacks the depth and objectivity I’m looking for.

### 1/5 — Irritating Ads

*2026-07-24, version 26.07.09*

Get frequent irritating ads with no options to close them

### 1/5 — Godi Media

*2026-07-22, version 26.07.09*

It’s not news it’s Adani’s propaganda app.

### 1/5 — Bootlicker news

*2026-07-21*

Fake news Ind

### 1/5 — Govt news channel

*2026-07-21, version 26.07.09*

If you want real world news download another app

### 1/5 — 😕

*2026-07-20, version 26.07.09*

Biased

### 2/5 — Full of bugs

*2026-07-19, version 26.07.09*

Once an amazing app, but recent bugs have ruined the experience. The app abruptly crashes after I scroll and read one or two articles - typically around the “Video” section.. Relaunching doesn't help, as it just crashes again on the next scroll. As a paid US subscriber, this is incredibly frustrating. Please fix this issue.

### 1/5 — Adani's new channel

*2026-07-18, version 26.07.09*

Time to uninstall this app as Adani uses it to drive his agenda

### 1/5 — Ads

*2026-07-12, version 26.06*

Too many ads and very limited news.The App is very busy to see the relevant news

### 5/5 — Better way to put titles

*2026-07-09, version 26.06*

can make it more user friendly.. literally have to search for cricket and other topics to read
