Somehow I used nearly one gig of data in two days on this app. I don't watch videos because I don't want to watch a 15+ second ad for a ten second clip. Videos are set to not auto play and I just checked and they don't. But I'm guessing they are preloading so that defeats the purpose of it. I should be getting mostly text and static images. This app is using much more than my YouTube app.

App crashes and freezes a lot. Get way too many notifications, even after adjusting settings to only send breaking news alerts. Once you click on one of the notifications it will open the app to blank screen, hang there for a while, then crash. And the topics that are deemed "breaking news" in most cases aren't even news at all. UPDATE: Thanks for telling me to contact the app developer to give them feedback. This is an app review, and I'm giving feedback already, and the app sucks.

The app videos take forever to load over 4g. I have a brand new phone and it does it on my other phone as well. Some of the people writing the stories dont re-read their article and i find errors all the time. Please learn proper grammar and pronunciation. Just about ready to delete the app. Also as the news, they tend to lean a certain way when I believe their stories should be neutral. Your the news, not judges. Bring the news. Not what you think is right or wrong. Again that's my opinion.
