So I, like so many in the world today, are looking for a reliable source for news whiteout bias and nonsense, something that is not falling into this latest trend of “fake” news (and at least tries to be balanced). Since the Apple news app has such limited options if you don’t want ridiculous alt-left sources I tried this app. In 3 of the last 3 days I have been blasted with major story’s that seemed very serious & valid involving the government, and caused me to open the story, which ended up being 100% fake. It was almost like reading a supermarket tabloid that appeared legit and made you think something very serious happened, then once you read you find the headline absolutely was a bait and switch. This app allows the crap information to come through and appears to allow politically biased and fake foolishness to be displayed. I will give it a couple more days to ensure it’s not isolated, but the plan is to delete the app if it continues. I’m not interested in games and bs when I want news! (NOTE: I made it a few more hours and 2 more bull crap stories came through,..I deleted it then) Another thing, I like to be notified when breaking news happens, sadly this app doesn’t allow for custom sounds on the notification, so whatever your txt alert sound is will belong to this app too. Bummer!
App locks up

This app freezes up, you can’t scroll, can’t close the app. Don’t waste your time with this one.
Non News App

No hard news at all. Huge waste of time. Makes Huffpost look good?
Disappointed

To many fake news sites. They don’t check if the sites are reliable news media mixed in with real news media sites. Very disappointed had the app for over a year keep hoping it will improve and this AM top article from a blog with fake news. Will not recommended this site unless you want fake news mixed in with real professional news sites. Deleted app.
Totally absurd dealing with this app

I have now had at least 15 to 20 alerts for the same story in the last 30 minutes. Have not commented on it, but it still keeps coming up. I will now be deleting it, and it better stop. I took a screenshot of the madness, but can not share on here. Also left feedback on the app it self
News articles.

I get tired of my news articles being filled with garbage. I thought I could control what news articles I get. I either get political news or teacher sex scandal news. I’m sick of the same old topics popping up. It’s really annoying. I would like more positive articles.
Worst news app if you actually want news

Fluff, nonsense, and worse. No news through this app, but rather opinion articles pushing one agenda or another.
Completely bogus

The news stories that came up were not even legitimate stories. Don’t waste your time on this awful app.

Every time I try to look at a video it says “an error occurred. Please try again later. Playback -o2-0VnwAXBWM9Zj. Not happy with this at all. This happens on every video. I’ve tried deleting and redownloading the app and still nothing. Please fix it or I will be deleting this app permanently.
