User Reviews

Reviews are largely negative on reliability and usability, with a few positives about unbiased reporting and useful weather. Recurrent issues include crashes/launch failures after updates, intrusive ads and video-first news causing slow loads, notification problems (duplicate alerts and links sometimes failing to open the story), difficult navigation (especially on iPad), and unreliable live video (freezes and small controls). A small number of users praise neutral reporting and timely weather, but overall sentiment is unfavorable.

Pros

Perceived unbiased/neutral reporting by some reviewers
Real-time mobile headlines appear as stories unfold
Weather feature praised (excellent weather app)

Cons

Frequent crashes and launch failures after updates
Intrusive ads and heavy video-first design slow access to stories
Notification issues: duplicate alerts and links failing to open the story
Difficult navigation and poor UX, especially on iPad
Unreliable live video: freezes and small controls
