### 3/5 — Still no back button for the news, you barely cover anything AEW. But at least you stopped using AI

*2026-06-09*

Even after you said to update the app today for easier navigation, there is still no way to go back to the main page of where I scrolled to unless I hit the home button. Also you’re very one sided on covering the news. You give WWE and TNA massive coverage but most of your AEW content is about them losing views. I mean you cover almost each match of every WWE in its own article, but AEW gets only one article about the show and ppv and then maybe about someone leave/joining the promotion. And then boom an article about the loss of viewers. I will say I’m happy you stopped using ai for your thumbnails because they showed your opinions on things (remember you did an AEW article and the thumbnail was all fat screaming guys made with ai?)

### 1/5 — Latest update the app

*2026-05-28*

This has been my favorite wrestling news aggregator for years, but the most recent update to the app make it almost unusable. The navigation stinks with no ability to get back to the news from a story. It’s clunky and slow. This is why we can’t have nice things. 🤦🏻‍♂️. 

My advice: Go elsewhere.

**Developer response:** We’re sorry the latest update made the app feel harder to use. That was not the experience we wanted. We’ve already made navigation and performance fixes in newer builds so getting back to the news feed from a story should be smoother now. Please update to the newest version, and if you’re still having trouble, contact us through the News Tip/Contact section so we can look into your device/app version directly.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2025-07-15, version 700*

When I look at the app, all I see is a dark screen and nothing else. Not even able to see the articles

### 1/5 — All clickbait and AI articles

*2024-12-20, version 700*

It’s nothing but click bait and inaccurate articles written by AI.  Hard pass.

### 5/5 — Dark layout

*2024-10-29*

Can you please get rid of this dark layout as it is very hard to read in either daylight or in any type of light. Also, when I type any nickname it tells me it’s already taken. What gives. Thank you.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback, Peter. In our latest Ringside News app update, we adjusted the colors and contrast so the dark layout is easier to read and not as harsh on the eyes. We’re also actively working on adding both light mode and dark mode options in the next rollout, so users can choose the layout that works best for them. We appreciate you taking the time to let us know.

### 2/5 — Banned?

*2024-08-07*

Apps not bad but, here’s my complaint: I varley rarely post comments on ringside news, come to find out when I did go to post a comment that I had been banned permanently from posting any comments and I don’t know why and the developers and the person that overseas the app wouldn’t give me an explanation why

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. Comment access may be restricted when an account violates our posted commenting rules or community guidelines. Please reach out to us through the contact form on RingsideNews.com and we can provide more information about why the account was banned. If it was done in error or the issue can be resolved, we may be able to review it and lift the restriction.

### 3/5 — No Notifications

*2024-04-24, version 700*

If Notifications worked on iPhone it be perfect 5 stars, but for some reasons they don’t work at all for me

### 2/5 — Problems

*2024-04-23*

I resentley started having problems getting notifications just from this app

### 1/5 — terrible!

*2023-04-21, version 700*

90% of the time you can’t read the story - just scroll through the same 12 headlines and can’t open anything! literally so annoying.

### 5/5 — One of my favorite sports apps for reading

*2023-04-04*

I really enjoy reading the latest news whenever they go through. Some are that interesting, while others would make me chuckle with a bit of humor.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the kind review. We’re glad you enjoy reading Ringside News and appreciate you taking the time to support the app. We’ve made several updates since then to improve the reading experience, navigation, and overall performance, so we hope you continue enjoying the latest wrestling news with us.
