## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — "You appear to be offline"

*2022-03-19*

Similar to other reviewer‘s, this message has appeared since the moment I downloaded it (even though I on online) and the app is not functioning. It’s disappointing because I have used the Funnel app for years and it is no longer supported. Please correct this; I look forward to my broad news coverage every morning.

### 1/5 — “Appear to be Offline”

*2022-01-19*

Just downloaded and got the “You appear to be offline” message as soon as I opened the app. I’ll have to delete the app now. Hope you get that fixed.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work on my devices.

*2022-01-05*

Says only “you appear to be offline”. But I’m not. Tried from more than one connection. I click on app support. It says server is offline.

### 1/5 — Can’t get in

*2021-12-14*

It keeps telling me that I’m offline, when I’m not. I deleted it, rebooted my phone, added the app again and it still doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — Will not work.

*2021-11-28*

App keeps saying I am not online, when I am. Nothing in the app works, just freezes on Home Screen. I would not recommend as it might be a ploy to get some personal info.

### 4/5 — Please update

*2021-12-20*

I used the funnel app and I loved it but I can’t use Newsbag, theres a “You appear to be offline” message on a white screen and It seems like it’s a bug, since I do have a functional internet connection. 

Please fix this issue and make the app usable again

### 5/5 — Highly Recommend!

*2020-06-25*

Neat and crisp interface maybe adding more personalization to the user and more contents would help the app reach big ! Kudos to the developers keep it coming !

### 5/5 — Definitely worth a try

*2020-06-20*

If ur a fan for news podcasts it the best app in recent times to be updated about what’s happening around the world . And it is user friendly and not many interfaces to get confused

### 5/5 — Definite Download for News Junkies

*2020-06-18*

Hey if you listens to news podcasts, this app is suuuuuuper straightforward and offers a a bunch of podcasts from different news agencies (CNN, Fox, MSNBC, NPR, etc). Literally just open the app and and you can listen to any of the segments at any time - no need to keep the app open or screen on or even open any of the respective news apps. No ads or weird interfaces, just a play/pause button for each podcast. This is probably the easiest way to get your news passively, on the go, from a balanced group of sources. Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Super easy

*2020-06-17*

I started to do multi tasking by using this app listening to news and driving etc.. this is very helpful.
