User Reviews

User feedback centers on intrusive autoplay and loud ads, frequent crashes and instability after updates, and a confusing, hard-to-read UI. Accessibility and readability issues (small font) and a burdensome ad experience significantly detract from the app, driving users away in favor of alternatives.

Pros

Cons

Autoplay videos play at full volume with no option to disable or control autoplay
Ads overlay content and cover articles, with lengthy, intrusive ads that disrupt reading
Frequent crashes, lag, and loading failures, especially after updates
Font size is too small and not adjustable, making reading difficult
New layout is confusing and less user-friendly, hindering navigation

Recent reviews

Page layout is very dull. Needs to look more like WLEX web page. The old layout was much better.

The new update has ruined my former favorite news app. It is slow to load, cluttered with ads, and difficult to navigate. Looks like I will be getting news elsewhere.
