Ads keep sending me to App Store

I deleted the app because if I read an article it keeps sending me to the App Store to the whiteout survival download page. It happens usually 4-5 times each time I’m reading an article.

Not best source for “news”

The app is decent and they usually cover bigger stories in Chatt. However, there is definitely some bias (not horrible) in many stories, which is not what I want in my news sources. It is Sinclair so they also post Nation News Desk stories which are just poorly written drama news articles. I don’t recommend if you’re looking for an unbiased news source.

Has Potential

The News Channel 9 app has potential and the news covered can be informative. One problem with the app is that I believe the touch target for the Back Arrow is too small and difficult to hit. It can take several attempts to return to the main page from a story.
As far as the content goes, it would be worth while to have an editor with an eye for proper grammar and word usage.
