No longer a useful news aggregator. It used to be my go-to, and I loved it. But it now places a far heavier emphasis on commentary than news, the suggested storyboards are far too often and far too useless, and it doesn't seem capable of identifying duplicate stories. I ended up spending more time flipping through than I did reading. It is a beautiful UI, and if you want non-news aggregated magazines (or want cable news transcribed on your phone) ymmv. As-is, I've deleted it from my phone.

Please don't take me back to the first story when I go back to the list! This app could be great, but when I use the phone's back button or the one in the UI, about 60% of the time it takes me to the first story on the list. Oh my gosh how frustrating. I have to swipe down to get to the one I came from. Also randomly the stories repeat when you flip through them. I tried Flipboard because Google news sucks so bad (mobile data and battery killer), but I am so frustrated about this seemingly minor thing that makes me crazy!

Horrible. I really liked flipboard until they started running ads that prevent you from reading the content last week. The last time I tried I had at least 6 ads in a row, each at least 30 seconds long, and everytime the new ad started, the text of the article would disappear. I only had about 5 seconds between ads to try and read anything. I gave up after 6 ads. I can find my news elsewhere.

Hi Kristen, Thank you for your review and we're sorry to hear about this. Can you please email our support team so we can investigate further? This does not seem like expected behaviour in the app regarding ads. Thank you.
