Unstable, data gobbling ads, not up to date. – NBC Nightly News Review

Unstable, data gobbling ads, not up to date. Today, August 15, I open up the app and click on call broadcast which launches me to open up Safari and watch the Olympics. So I hit cancel and reloaded the app. Now I choose to play the first story listed and see if it will play each story back to back like a Daisy chain. Well after playing a 30 second commercial, the first story then played two thirds of the way and then played the first one third of another story. After that was done, it did the same thing for the next two stories then decided to play a video clip that is six minutes long and seems like the full broadcast but it wasn't and kept jumping around from storage story dropping in wherever it felt like it. This app is ridiculously unstable. I understand the need for revenue and that being said, keeping the ads to a minimum would suffice but I as well as the rest of my family with our countless iOS devices are tired of wasting our money on apps that consume data (especially while on LTE since Wi-Fi isn't an option) for ads as well as a malfunctioning app.
