This app does what it needs and nothing else. It for some reason only displays video at one direction when landscape mode (meaning you can't flip your phone) and I find the weather alerts are generally wrong. But the weather alerts can be turned off manually, if fact you can customize all the alerts which is fantastic. Honestly good app. It's my go to for news, but there's the little things that annoy me that feel like they should just be there automatically.

I read the comments and reviews before I downloaded it, and they were pretty much correct, whoever developed your app needs to fix it, there are too many ads, the live radar is not correct half the time, I wish when I clicked on a article to read it I didn't have to have all the ads pop up beforehand, I didn't download this app to watch and read commercials I downloaded it so I can get accurate news and accurate weather which doesn't seem to happen... Without having ads all the time.

I just want to click on an article and read it. I DO NOT WANT to have videos and video ads forced down my throat eating up my data. Uninstalling before I've even found a replacement. Just got on my nerves too many times. Please don't force videos on users. Especially ad videos. Maybe just bring up a prompt if a person wants to watch the video they can click it, and then the ad pops up!
