Awesome!


Tracking location?

ReviewDan21

There’s no option to enable or disable location tracking for this app, however the pop up ads know exactly where I am while I am traveling. How is this allowed by Apple?


Plays ads with sounds, no way to disable

CFI Jim

This app is not well organized. It also shows ads with sound, with apparently no ability to disable this behavior. Pretty annoying when you’re using the app next to someone else!


Better - but not good

Complete at Last

Limited categories with no search starts a bad experience. Broken home page button. "Latest News" often is not news and/or days old.


Useless

Alert sound when opening article

Pop ups on mobile news are very BAD!


Huge improvement

TravelingNow

Much better than old app. Faster, improved design.


Slightly better than its one star predecessor

Monopolist

Forces you to view only in portrait mode, this version is at least barely usable, which is an improvement over the previous version. Even though I'm a paying subscriber, I'm held hostage to full page ads that have to run their painful course before resuming content I've already paid to see. Someday, someone will come up with a mobile app that is as good as just about any web page you can use to view newspaper content. Until then, we're stuck with crap apps like this.


Barely usable

And how does one navigate to Mr. Roadshow?
