I love the news ! It allows me on old model cheap andriod to post to facebook . It seems like their system knows what type of articles you like based on your choices and selection . I love this news, especially since newspapers are in shortgage and expensive . I can't wait to have a computer to really enjoy the news !

Hilariously terrible. The articles on this app have such terrible grammar, punctuation, spelling, and just so many typos. It makes it almost infuriating to read. I still have yet to find a single article that doesn't have these issues. I don't usually write reviews but this one is deserved. Not to mention it's just FULL of ads. Most things on this app are hardly interesting anyways. Just don't waste your time.

Has a business ad that shows up all the time and makes you wait 5 seconds before you can close the ad. Now it is showing blurred ad of skimpy clothed people from this same ad company. And of course, have to wait to close ad and can't find a way to block such an ad. I'm taking news app off my phone until it improves ads. I did enjoy the news but hate the ads.
