News categorisation and select ability needs improvement. Need a section for favourite topics. ### 4/5 — Love this app but… *2025-02-02, version 3.2.8* I love reading news on Republic app, 1 thing that annoys is, when you open an article and go back to main screen, it always takes you to the top of the page instead where you left. Please fix this. ### 2/5 — Doesn’t work like Arnab *2024-10-02, version 3.2.0* If you tap the titles for the story …. It doesn’t open up…. Just read like titles only ### 3/5 — Slow *2024-08-15, version 3.1.9* The relay seems from a bad server It stops every few seconds Whereas I can see NDTV without any issues Currently I am in USA ### 5/5 — Unfiltered Truth *2024-06-12, version 3.1.3* This is the only channel in the country right now who speaks on behalf of our people & conveying the right message to the government & the right note to the anti nationals….Proud of you ### 5/5 — Kangna’s assault at chandigarh airport *2024-06-07, version 3.1.3* If this woman kulwinder kaur is not arrested by Centre agencies, i am going to be mad as hell. This will also make BJP supporters angry. Kulwinder kaur could have hurt her for worse. No questions. The FIR must be filed against security agent. If she had a gun, she could have shot Kangna. Enough is enough. I would call this airport worker a terrorist. If politicians are not safe at the ports. Anything could happen to normal people. I will blame Amt Shah if no action is taken against Kulwinder kaur. ### 2/5 — Extremely bad designed App. *2024-04-03, version 3.0.9* Was very surprised to see such a bad designed app in this current age where user experience is centric. You guys really need to invest on good app experience and performance. ### 5/5 — News *2024-03-26, version 3.0.9* Desh bhakt channel ### 4/5 — Republic TV App is very good. *2024-03-24, version 3.0.9* It can be excellent if the WiFi is made more efficient. Ever with 200 MBPS WIFI I see frequent hourglass. Still a great to listen to Republic Bharat which is not available on Sling TV in USA. ### 5/5 — Feedback *2024-03-22, version 3.0.9* Well organised, relevant Good journalism ### 5/5 — Great *2024-03-21, version 3.0.8* Thanks ### 3/5 — Lot of lag and Dark mode required *2024-02-05, version 3.0.2* Tried switching from TOI to Republic Bharat app twice in the gap of 1-2 year. No improvement. Please make this app faster and user friendly. Lot of lag switching from one page to another. Dark mode also preferred. ### 5/5 — Buggy App *2024-01-01, version 3.0.0* Hello Arnab Great fan of yours. Highly recommend you to upgrade app experience plus website. Involve us to create great digital experience for customers. You need to improve digital experience for the nation ### 3/5 — App not working on my iOS *2023-12-18, version 2.1.6* Hie i am in toronto and the app used to work well before. Now it is crashing and not working since few updates. Please fix this. I was loving the app when i used to get breaking news updates :( ### 5/5 — News not getting updated *2023-10-25, version 2.1.6* News not getting updated since 7th October. When will the editor come back from holiday? ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Poor and unreliable app *2025-04-25* Dear Arnab I have been watching Republic from day one of the launch. But for last six month or so the Republic TV app iOS does not work for more than a minute. Even with internet speed of over 300 mbps your app works for a minute and stops playing. You have press play every minute to watch your channel. It is really a pathetic app and you need to look into it more seriously. If this continues I am sure viewers will move to other channels who have better app. You call Republic TV as the lead channel, but after my experience with your app I can say that that is fake otherwise you would not providing such primitive app…really disgusting to watch Republic TV using iOS. Regards, Manish Desai ### 1/5 — Not user friendly *2025-03-22* After reading a story, and pressing the back button, it should go back to where you left off on the main page. Instead it takes you back to the top of the main page. This is a basic flaw of the app and it has not been fixed for sometime. ### 1/5 — India’s Radio Rawanda *2024-03-31, version 3.0.9* This channel is India’s radio Rawanda which spreads hatred against Muslims , Cowswamy is a blot in the name of journalism, Journalism is considered the fourth pillar of democracy , But this channel is taking India towards the dark ages , Coswamy invites people in his studio but keep on shouting without listening to anyone , With an agenda to appease his masters sitting at the top positions, TWO GUJARATI THUGS Besides this channel is Co-owned by BJP’s Rajya Sabha MP Rajeev Chandershekar , "वसूली भाई की गारंटी = चंदा दो, धंधा लो।" एक्सटोर्शन रैकेट के सरगना, ताड़ीपार और फेकू गुजरात में एक्सटोर्शन रैकेट चलाने के बाद, तड़ीपार और वसूली भाई ने एक्सटोर्शन रैकेट राष्ट्रीय स्तर पर चलाया, ED को बनाया एक्सटोर्शन डिपार्टमेंट। ### 1/5 — Very good news channel but very bad app. *2024-02-05, version 3.0.2* Arnab…..nothing more to say. ### 1/5 — No updates in news for months *2023-11-06, version 2.1.6* Bugs not fixed for months ### 1/5 — Best news channel but Worst news app ever made *2023-08-25* Republic new channel is one of the best news channel in the world but don’t know why the mobile app is so worst. Does development only develop the app and directly deploys in prod without proper testing or sanity? You cant even read single news on this app. It hangs a lot.! Please have a proper testing of this app before deployment.! ### 1/5 — Great Coverage Poor App *2023-08-08, version 2.1.6* The news coverage is great but the app logs me out of my account every single time and presently just bugs out and restarts every single time I try to read a news and it feels there’s no quality tech support who monitor this. It feels like a headlines only. Just for the tech which is the whole point in the app 1 star if you want to see the news head to your TV or web. ### 1/5 — The app doesn't work *2023-06-23, version 2.1.6* It is a waste of time the app dosen't work on iphone ### 1/5 — Worst news app ever *2023-05-14, version 2.1.6* I hate this app as much as I like Arnab It’s full of ads everywhere and no news ### 1/5 — Godi media *2021-01-26, version 2.0.4* So many fake news ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Truth *2026-05-20, version 3.4.1* Love this show. Love the truth only ### 5/5 — Honest reporting *2025-11-15, version 3.4.1* Best news service in the world. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2025-07-03, version 3.4.0* A lot improved since the beginning. Very nice now and getting frequent upgrades and news updates. ### 5/5 — Poor quality app for an Awsome news channel *2025-06-12* The video is very choppy. Buffers every few seconds inspite of 1G internet wifi speed ### 5/5 — Good not great *2025-06-02, version 3.3.7* Great content. Irritating that it doesn’t allow landscape orientation. Very yesterday ### 5/5 — Amardeep *2025-04-25, version 3.3.6* Excellent news media ### 5/5 — Fantastic channel for Real news of India & the world *2025-03-18, version 3.3.5* Fantastic channel honest journalism ### 5/5 — Bold channel *2025-02-19, version 3.3.2* I firmly believe that Republic TV consistently delivers accurate news. I am committed to supporting it. It is essential to launch a Tamil channel of Republic TV in Tamil Nadu to ensure that Tamil-speaking people have access to reliable information. ### 5/5 — Wonderful event *2025-01-16, version 3.2.5* Glad to comment! Happy & Healthy Republic day to All Proud Bhartiys under the Selfless & Devoted Leadership of Honorable our MODIji.
