Worst news ever
Do they even test this app?
Glitchy. Sound comes on sometimes even when muted or when the video is paused or when I’ve moved on to a different article. Every release comes with a new glitch like the glitches are its features.
Unstable App & poor journalistic content
App falls over when reading articles.
Numerous spelling and grammatical errors.
Clickbait not journalistic content.

frequently crashes while trying to load ads
This app is awful. The spacing is all over the place while they try to dynamically load ads. Just moved from iOS18 to 26 and now it will just crash when reading a story. Frustratingly that mainly seems to be the FIGA World Cup articles
App keeps crashing
When reading ‘Live’ threads, the app keeps crashing. Doesn’t happen on other articles. Also the advertising is impacting readability with ads rescaling or freezing scrolling while the ad loads or reloads. It’s really annoying
2.7.0 crashes
When I read certain articles and scroll down, the app will suddenly close/crash. Other articles are fine. I have the latest version of iOS, I have uninstalled the news.com.au app, rebooted my iPad and reinstalled the app to no avail. I have 150gb of space free so that’s not the issue. This latest version must therefore be buggy.

Awfull
Controlling bs
Fed up
I am trying to block getting emails from this site and it seems impossible to do so.
There are so many emails that if you open accidentally you find it difficult to exit.
My next option is to complain to the ombudsman

Irresponsible
The one sided narratives about President Trump in most articles
are fatuous to say the least.
An example in the article denying us of any responsibility to help with the strait situation because we weren’t consulted about the war is so stupid that a grade two could put holes in it.
Did Britain consult us when they declared war on Germany
The straits,btw,are strategic to Australia,not USA so anyone with half a brain would rush to help open them
Just sayin

Smelling pistakes everywhere
Proof reader required! More spelling and grammar problems than any news app I know of.
Glitches and freezes
So awful it makes me want to throw my phone against a wall. Rage fuel.
Buggy App
Current build - if you play a video, in an article and then go back to the main menu, another ad and video will play. But returning to the page you have just left doesn’t allow you to stop the video.
Next, the Support page is blocked by an Ad.
Next, your nickname field is blocked if you type a single letter in the field and try it

App getting harder to use
This app used to be great however recent changes with all the advertising and the pop-ups are making it almost impossible to read the articles. You get stuck and can’t scroll and have to keep opening ads.
Morons In Charge
Who the hell had the bright idea to interrupt EVERY story by making you pause to look at a moronic full page add that blocks you from scrolling past it! Guarantee that it just makes me swear to NEVER use whatever is being advertised. Stupid stupid stupid idea. App deleted!
So slow
This site is so slow to load on any device I use. Often I just give up
Anon
Latest update seems to have totally messed user experience or likely an intentional change to drive more clicks to articles. Headings only, half the time not even a complete heading. I needed a final reason to change news sources, so guess here it is.
Unreadable
The ads on this site are now so huge, you can no longer scroll on your phone whilst attempting to read the click bait that you selected.
Downhill
I used to like being able to click an alert that took me straight to the article - that no longer works.
I used to like being able to share articles on WhatsApp - that no longer works either.
Without commenting on actual journalistic content, please fix your app capabilities, in the least

Clearly developed by the work experience kid
Let’s separate this into two problem areas: 1. Poor journalistic content - the often trivial nature of the stories aside, consistently incorrect grammar and spelling makes some articles unintelligible. My kids’ kindergarten stories appear to have undergone a more rigorous review process than some articles on this app.
2. Glitchy app - overloading it with ads makes it impossible to scroll without the screen freezing. App functionality and responsiveness is lost after a few minutes of use, requiring the app to be closed and re-opened again in a bid to access the ‘quality’ journalism contained therein.
Don’t waste your time with this app.
