Refresh bugs still a problem
I love this app- content is 5 stars- but the mechanics of the app make it virtually unusable. I can’t click on a story without the page jumping as I try to read. Come on Not the Bee- DO BETTER.
Cannot use
Pages CONTINUALLY (within seconds) crash and reloads (takes me back to top) - unnerving
Ridiculous ads
Update:
They’ve fixed the bugs and I’m not having issues with the ads anymore. So I’ve updated my review.

Previous review:
I have long enjoyed the notthebee app until this year they have these ads that are dead ends. You have to close the app and reopen the app just to read the article. I understand they need to make money but that’s not the way to do it. I find it not worth using anymore.

Intrusive ads?
I find using the app increasingly frustrating. When I’m trying to read a story, the app keeps resetting and putting me back at the top of the page no matter where I am in the story, or moving around within the story, seemingly related to its need to position and play intrusive ads. I understand the need to monetize, but other apps don’t have this problem. You can slowly scroll through and article without it bouncing you around like this.

Search function needs work
App is great, and the content is fantastic, but the search function could be improved. There is no way to sort search results by date. I don't want an article written 3 years ago; I want the one I read two weeks ago.
