I've had this app years ago/ couple of phones ago and recently downloaded it again on this new phone. Over at least 3 years, and this app still doesn't take you to the notification you click on. I at least get alerts more often than before. But what's the point of these notifications if the link doesn't even take you to the story you're notified about.

The old app was so much better. Everything about this app is clunky. Going back after reading an article doesn't remember where you were. You're essentially starting over with each article. The ads are out of control. (i understand you need ads but this is overkill.) The navigation is through panels which don't feel intuitive at all. I didn't love the old app at all, but this is horrible. I'll get my news elsewhere. This isn't worth it. UPDATE: uninstalled HNN app & got KHON app - much better.

The update as of late April 2021 is not great. When you click an alert for a specific story, it doesn't take you to that story just a page that has a feature for watching live and links to other stories below. Even if you go to Top Stories after that, good luck finding the story you clicked the alert for. Way too many graphics and ads that make the user experience feel cluttered and clunky.
