User Reviews

Users like the app’s easy navigation, live news/notifications, and video content when it works. However, repeated reviews cite stability and streaming problems, unreliable content updates, update-related issues, and data-use concerns. Overall, the app shows value with its news and video features but is hampered by frequent performance and content-refresh reliability problems.

Pros

Easy to navigate and well-organized layout (noted by multiple users as intuitive to use).
Live news feature with local/global notifications.
Polished look and feel when the app is functioning.
Video content and sports highlights are available for viewing when the app works.

Cons

Frequent stability issues: app won’t open, crashes, or becomes unresponsive.
Live streaming has audio/video problems and can be unreliable.
Content updates are inconsistent or outdated (news not refreshed; weather features issues).
Update/installation problems (app can move to cloud or require reinstall)
Excessive data usage from background polling.

No longer a trusted news source. Now just another puppet for the billionaire class

The sports guy has got to go! He shouts during his entire time on the air- doesn’t he know we have volume controls on our devices???? Not only shouting but I’m afraid he is going to spit on me thru the screen. I have stopped watching , hope you can find a replacement or groom the guy- one of your worst hires!
