Good app, however, i've had a couple of problems with the app that requires attention. 1. Ads that play in video form lags the app immensely. 2. The spanish version sometimes bleeds over to the english. 3. Some articels seems to be missing whenever i press their notification. Very nice app, good UI.

The inability to stop videos from autoplaying as soon as you open the app is infuriating. Forgot to turn the volume down before checking the app? Oops, now your eardrums are being blasted out by the ad that plays before the actual video, which can't be paused because it's an ad.

The updates over the last year have made this app worse. I see the same headlines day after day, even when more serious or important news has happened. I have to go to BBC News just to get all of the information about US events. I try to read articles, but I get these stupid "breaking news" alerts in red or blue that appear and take up 1/3rd of my screen until I close them. And they're always for stories I chose not to read. I don't care about sports headlines and resent the distraction.
