Reviews Summary

๐Ÿ’ฅ Mixed Bag of Reviews ๐Ÿ’ฅ

Good News First:

  1. Great Job, Folks! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

    • Users love the app for its local news updates. Some are all-in with five stars, "GREAT job ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ KEEP up the good work ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ‘!!!!"
    • They even send festive wishes, "happy Thanksgiving ๐Ÿฆƒ๐Ÿ’ฒ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฆฌ๐ŸŒฒ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿค‘".
  2. Itโ€™s Okay-ish:

    • One user finds it "Really good for my local news" but insists on a pixel theme icon. ๐Ÿ“ฑ
    • โ€œgood news is the best news and the bad is the badโ€ (thanks Captain Obvious!).

The News is Not All Rosy:

  1. Technical Tantrums:

    • Random audio playing, app restarting issues โ€“ Ugh, the horror! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ โ€œYou fixed it and I was ready to give you five stars, and then the latest update it does it every time you open it.โ€
  2. Snail Speed:

    • โ€œEverything is t damn slowโ€ ๐Ÿข
  3. Not Loading:

    • Some can't even get articles to load. โ€œWorthless!โ€ cries one disappointed reviewer.

The Debate Desk:

  1. Political Pandemonium:

    • Many users accuse the app of being too "liberal" and "bashing conservatives." ๐Ÿ”ด๐Ÿ”ต
    • "Dont get this app if youโ€™re looking for an objective news source."
  2. Fact or Fiction:

    • Allegations of bias, spreading lies, and being bought by the Democrats. ๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ’ฐ

Push Notifications Push-Back:

  1. Notification Nightmare:

    • "Spamming notifications about the same stuff. I don't care." ๐Ÿ””๐Ÿšซ
  2. Privacy Police:

    • Concerns about sharing location with third parties. ๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿ”’

UI/UX Requests:

  1. Edit Feature Drama:
    • โ€œPlease add an edit feature, posted this two years ago.โ€ Time travel yet? ๐Ÿ•’

In Summary:

๐ŸŽ‰ Positives: Great local news, decent when it's functional, holiday cheer.
๐Ÿ’ฅ Negatives: Glitches, slow performance, bias accusations, notification madness, privacy concerns.

Itโ€™s not a news-channeling dream but not a complete nightmare either! ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

"Fake news and have scammers asking people for money to used the app"

"EDIT: Thanks for listening.....this is not an issue anymore. ๐Ÿ‘ It is very irritating that random audio starts playing and you can't tell where it's coming from. You just have to close the app and start over again. You fixed it and I was ready to give you five stars, and then the latest update it does it every time you open it. You can't close it and reopen it it just keeps on happening. It's worse!!!"

"Dont get this app if your looking for an objective news source. You won't find that here. Most of the story's take a liberal stance on issues and write stories from a liberal perspective"

"Like the app overall but far too far left leaning. Constantly bashing conservatives. Newsflash, you are the minority now. Uninstalled."

"As of lately the recommendation says have been complete garbage. This app used to be halfway decent but over the past few months it really doesn't report on anything of substance and when it does the article is from like 2 years prior."
