3/5Not good on local news at all
The only “local news” this app ever provides for Delaware is other states sports news. Lame AP. Can get that info in any sports section of any paper. Hate sports in general. How about you have actual local news - or stop saying you do.

1/5Lots of photos
Hard to read the news with so much flooooooof. Options to reduce images do not reduce number of images. Cr/app.

1/5Spyware that ignores your notification preferences
I turned off notifications for sports, but I still get notifications for sports. Also, why does a news app need to track your activity across platforms? It’s sad how just about every single app is spyware now, even news apps.

2/5Stop the ads!
Content is average but the ads are terribly repetitive and poorly executed. A real detractor from the news. Ap runs poorly…probably due to all the awful ads.

Mequail · 31 Jul 2026
2/5Racial tensions
Why do you guys constantly push divisive conflicts between White and black people on your platform? There is more to the world than social justice issues.

Mostly love it. But the failures of updating articles in real time is very noticeable.

1/5
Wanted to block notifications during a concert to conserve battery, tried to snooze them and they still came. Turned them off completely within the app, they still came. Ridiculous I can't pause notifications for a few hours.

Installs but won't load past the permissions screen after accepting the default settings. Samsung tablet, OneUI8.0, Android 16.
