Deleted due to new REQUIREMENT notifications be enabled – NBC News: Breaking & US News Review

November 16, 2021 You are getting closer. It now seems to block me from going forward afterI enter a zip code (99685) which is a valid zip code. As with the Google Home app, I feel that my location is not something I care to provide & the location I chose is unlikely have much local news (I am more interested in national & world events.) November 05, 2021 Developers need to understand that adding restrictions on how people must configure their devices that do not have a technical merit will cause people to delete the offending apps from their devices. As the app worked fine without having notifications enabled for several years, I find it hard to believe there was a technical reason for additional requirement that Notifications be enabled before people are allowed to open the app. As with the Google Home app before it, it has been deleted from my devices for adding an onerous requirement that does not have a technical justification. Another annoyance is the “support link” provided by the developer of the app brings up a page that is nothing more than advertising for this app.
