App crashes!
Currently
Just didn’t work
Definitely needs way more work, folks. PK
Good app but
It needs to be updated for larger iPhone screens because it looks and feel dated in its current state and will run people off on that alone
News overload as you cant disable sources
I dont need thousends of channels where I then only loose my way...
I need a news reader that gives me lots of sources yes - but I MUST also be able to disable unwanted sources I dont read!

Original review
If it's one thing I hate, and I mean really hate, above all else is to load a new app that comes recommended or looks useful only to install it and find it's locked in portrait mode.
I have an iPhone and an iPad. My phone is just that, a phone, yes, it can browse and search but it's small, awkward and limited when compared to an iPad, and for me my iPad Pro is my preferred day-to-day tool.
Over time I've encountered quite a few of these locked apps and their almost almost never useful on a iPad. To me this is a fatal flaw. iPhones and iPads each have their intended orientation; portrait and landscape respectively. Since the preferred (intended) orientation is fixed by device design, all apps should be capable of screen rotation to suit the orientation of the device. Orientation is a built-in function of all IOS application programming languages, it should always be called in the source to include it in the compilation.
I've spent more time than I care to think about trying to use an iPad with rotation locked apps, and the more I tried the more frustrated I grew and eventually I gave up and deleted them all. Now that dislike has distilled into a gut feeling, just one look at a sideways screen and these days I instantly hate it [the app] and nothing is going to change my mind.
Ever try to use an app locked in portrait mode with an iPad or iPad Pro in a protective case? Doesn't work very well, does it? In fact, it doesn't work at all without removing the iPad from the case and even then it's so awkward that it's pointless to try.
I loaded this app a few minutes ago, launched it, saw the dreaded sideways screen and immediately deleted it without further ado or having the slightest idea if it's any good, I just know that it's sideways, and sideways is no good.
Total time to install, launch, Review and delete?, less than 60 seconds.
I wish all developers understood that millions of iPad have been sold and iPads are landscape orientated devices by design. They excel at what they do, be superb consumption tools - in landscape mode !!
