Advertising video before every story. Some of the ads are up to a minute long. That's longer than the news clips I'm trying to watch. Sometimes the news article doesn't load and pushes out another ad. Very frustrating! Also, live video does not work at all... Hasn't worked in months. I used to like this app. I'm going to try other news station apps and give them a chance.

Way too many commercials. They don't let you skip ad. News feed will freeze or cut off in the middle of the feed, and start over. This app used to work well and have less commercials. When you try to watch breaking news, it won't play at all since the last update. The play button and live button just have the spinning circle that never stops.

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.
