I signed in and it still wants me to sign in , this sucks

This has got to be the worst app I’ve ever used for news. Every single time I use it, the story I’m reading will just disappear. The screen turns white. And there is then absolutely nothing I can do besides getting out of the app completely. Trying again is a complete waste of time as the problem just repeats itself. And don’t even get me started on the ad pop-ups!
