Too many pop-up ads, and many with audio as well! The app seems quite good, similar to Google News, but it is nearly unusable with so many pop-up ads. If you peek the news at work, everyone will now within a minute with the blast of audio from the ad. They don't even give you the option to pay to disable ads, you are just expected to eat them constantly while trying to read the news. A SOLID PASS!

This News outlet is brilliant, precise & accurate and being able to "favourite" stories to go back to is excellent. Sadly the videos just won't play, it just shows an exclamation mark! Otherwise it would be ☆☆☆☆☆ five stars!

The video clips do not play in the app. Without the videos, the app is a lot less useful. The ads are very intrusive and there does not seem to be a way to turn off the ads with a fee or setting.
