    I like this app for perusing news at night and appreciate the black screen with white font. However, it always opens with a blaring white ad. Which is dumb as fudge.

    This is truly a rare and awesome find...a daily news app that actually provides complete news writeups and never takes the reader to a dead end page with 'website not available' onscreen!! This is the only news app among several, I have tried that is like this one. In Settings, this app is using 16 MB, but if it doesn't rise to 20 MB or more, I'll keep this installed in my android. This app is really interesting & functions fine.Thank you much!!!

    Was great until recently. For a while it didn't update for a few days at a time. Now, one gets top news, tech, & politics scattered throughout most of the categories. My custom tabs are now blank. Resetting/reinstalling makes no difference. What happened? This was the best replacement for Google News until it went nuts.

    A reasonable alternative to Google News & Weather, now that Google have decided to kill that app off and replace it with a garbage app. I like NewsHog but it needs some changes: it is slow to load the list of news stories when first opened (it ought to have everything cached since the last update). It should allow pull-down to refresh. On opening a news article in reader mode, the graphic/image is completely out-of-scale and all pixelated in some news stories. The 'read' indicator is a 'star' - t

    Ads in default channel view mode are immense (more than half the screen!) and numerous. Other view modes are better, but waste space with meaningless graphics and confusing tile sizes. No ability to filter out news from unwanted sources. Nice weather screen. But obtrusive ads are annoying, and no option to buy an ad-free version. Other features are nice, but ads are a deal breaker. Uninstalling.

    This is the very BEST news app out there, especially if you're looking for unbiased information. It gives you access to news. Not like Smartnews that chooses what you should be reading, so biased! This app also allows you to load so many channels that you are interested in. Like I have a channel called Ancient and it loads articles related to anything Ancient,; most of which I wouldn't see on any other news app. Total 5 ☆! I would recommend this app to EVERYONE.

    It just starts playing whatever news story it wants when it wants with sound and I can't get it to stop soooooofn annoying

    Ummmmm, why is it not in English? Shouldn't the app detect the language settings of my phone and be in ENGLISH?! Seriously, I can't even use the app, and I used to use it before with no problems. No idea what's going on. Total fail.

  9. Ally Tie-avatar

    Ally Tie

    Is nice, but has its share of issues. Can't run it all the time or my battery runs down too quickly. Would like to have it open on a schedule each morning, but can't get that to happen. Custom news channels are great, but often slow to load or don't load at all. Still a good app, inconveniences aside..

  10. Stephen Shephard-avatar

    Stephen Shephard

    Great replacement since the new Google news app isn't available for my phone. Just wish it wouldn't update every time I select one of my channels. Why does it show me Polish, Italian, French and I think Ukrainian news items when I have selected English as my language.
