User Reviews

Users praise Talk for unbiased, fact-based news and strong presenters, and many see it as essential for staying informed and for in-car listening. However, reviews highlight reliability and UX issues (crashes, loading failures, pausing back-to-live), feature gaps (no in-app TV or catch-up; YouTube with ads), platform limitations (no Android TV support; no landscape mode), and a privacy concern over gender data. Content quality is valued, but stability and features must improve.
Pros
  • Unbiased, fact-based news with credible presenters.
  • Engaging hosts (e.g., Jezza, Dolan) that viewers trust.
  • Considered essential and informative by many users, especially for staying informed.
Cons
  • Reliability issues: frequent crashes, the app stops, and sometimes won't load.
  • Missing in-app TV and catch-up features; content often redirects to YouTube with ads.
  • Poor live vs. on-demand UX: pausing or returning to live is inconsistent.
  • Platform limitations: no Android TV/Google TV support and lack of landscape mode.
  • Privacy concern: compulsory gender information required.
