Also, on the iPad, the first highlighted article at the top of the list is never pressable. This is usually the story I want to read as it’s the most pressing. Please change this functionality and I’m happy to change the rating to 5 stars. ### 5/5 — This app helped in my research for my MUN *2020-01-16, version 6.4* Mun ### 3/5 — Valuable but Ineffective *2019-10-27, version 6.4* The purpose of the app is valuable and helps me stay connected to UN News. However, there are some technical flaws that diminish the quality of the experience. When I tap a notification to see a news story, that app crashes. As well, audio clips stop working if I lock my phone, so I can’t listen to podcasts effectively. With some fixes, the app would function better and have an improved experience. ### 5/5 — Есть таджикский язык? *2019-06-28* если нет, пожалуйста добавьте этого языка спасибо. ### 5/5 — Thank you *2017-01-08* Thank you. ### 4/5 — Хорошо *2014-11-06* Хорошо ### 3/5 — Please UPDATE *2014-09-29, version 1.2* I really like this app but it needs to update to iOS 8 format and iPhone 6 capability. It'll make it more pleasing to look at. ### 5/5 — It would be chill.... *2014-06-10, version 1.2* If you could allow the app to turn sideways. So when I charge my phone I can read the stories about the world around me? ### 4/5 — Need a little work *2013-04-03, version 1.2* This new version is a better deal than the last version but you guys left the push notifications on the old version... Please update this one!!! ### 4/5 — Good but not perfect *2013-01-27* While it's great to have easy access to everything the UN is up to, I struggle to navigate through the mass of news that regularly appears. It would be good to have a filtering system for the 'recent news' section. For example, I am interested in human rights and food/poverty but not so much in the various speeches of oficials condoning or condemning a country's actions. While the topics section provides the ability to look only at what I'm interested in, I find that it is a bit clunky to use because I am interested in most areas and would have to keep moving between them all. Also, could there be an option to just have the 5 major articles in a week? I struggle to know what to prioritise reading until I have read half the article, and there are far too many for that to be time-efficient ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Notifications broken *2024-08-15, version 7.0.2* The notifications section is broken, fix it! ### 1/5 — No search *2022-09-20, version 6.4.9* Biased reporting on developing countries and no reporting critical of the west. Couldn’t find anything about the recent judgment of the Working Group on Arbitrary Detention that the US is unlawfully holding prisoner AIM activist and world-wide human rights icon Leonard Peltier solely because he is Native American and not because he’s guilty of any crime (for 47 years). ### 1/5 — Hopeful, but doesn't deliver *2012-12-19, version 1.2* I was excited to see the newer format and style, but it doesn't load any stories. Hopefully there will be a patch soon? ### 1/5 — Broken *2012-04-14, version 1.1* Will not load any news. Occasionally gives a download error message. Other than that it does nothing. ### 2/5 — Update *2017-10-03* Needs to be updated. ### 2/5 — UPDATE *2015-11-16, version 1.2* Update needed, at least format to fit new iPhone screen sizes. ### 3/5 — Закладки. Проблема! *2022-11-06* Стоит только добавить статью в закладки - приложение перестаёт работать. Просто выбрасывает тебя постоянно. Перезагружать устройство не помогает. Приходится заново устанавливать приложение. И в закладки больше не пытаться ничего добавить. ### 3/5 — issues *2021-02-05, version 6.4.6* way too many notifications and when I click then the article never loads. tried updating and reinstalling. ### 3/5 — Не позорьтесь *2020-03-31* Такая организация и такое позорное приложение. При переходе с уведомления вылетает, изображения не грузятся, текст загружается с ужасной задержкой. Ребята, найдите себе нормальных разработчиков. Не позорьте свою репутацию. ### 3/5 — Фотографии в приложении *2020-02-10* Скажите пожалуйста, с чем связано отсутствие фотографий в постах? После смены устройства ничего не поменялось. Кроме видео на главной странице, больше ничего нет😩 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Gooooood *2026-04-01* This app is good for those who wants to become a international worker which is my dream and I am a student. And I also what an another app which you can learn international things and also languages. Since it is important to have language skills. ### 5/5 — Like the new audio playback feature *2026-02-20* The latest update to the UN News app is a big step forward. The improved navigation and smarter search make it much easier to find stories by topic and region, and the refreshed design feels clean and modern. Performance is smoother, and the updated notifications are more relevant and customizable. Great improvements that make staying informed with the United Nations even easier. ### 5/5 — Good *2025-05-11* Good ### 5/5 — Good first source of news *2025-02-15, version 7.0.4* App works well and is a good primary source for news. ### 5/5 — Friendly and easy to use *2023-08-29* Great app with useful info and easy to navigate. ### 5/5 — Good！ *2023-06-01, version 6.4.9* A good news app！ ### 5/5 — Importante, amei. *2022-11-13* Muito bom, amei e importante fonte de notícias. ### 5/5 — mun *2022-01-26, version 6.4.8* mun ### 5/5 — Perfeito! *2021-12-22* Perfeito o jornal!
