This app display is too chunky and slow. I deleted the app.

A must have.

Clean App. No Ads. Excellent means to complement and maybe by-pass the Facebook redflagnews page censors. I endorse this app in its current form.

Great App

No ads. Great app. I already submitted a 5 star review moments ago. It did not publish. This is a conservative publication. Love the app. Thanks.

TERRIBLE NEWS APP

You jokers who write how wonderful this app is and how it has no ads are totally flaked. Its literally impossible to read a SINGLE article due to all the pop ups. Im DONE!!

No ads

No ads, just news. Junior

LOUSY!

We need NEGATIVES for this app - WORTHLESS! Wont even open.

Hate the update!!!!

Used to be a great tool for news and information, but now it looks to much like a newspaper or a magazine. Hate the daily mash up format. Make it go away and return it to its former self.

Red Flag

Stopped working no content dont waste your time I followed it for Months then they changed it and now no new update moving to another app

This is one of my go to sources for news but

I cant use the app anymore due to pop up adds - I have to shut down so Im deleting the app

CHANGING MY PREVIOUS REVIEW

I originally gave this app 1 star. I was mostly discouraged by all of the ads (still am) but I understand the challenge of running a site like this without charging your users. The ad folks can hijack a site pretty quickly. I will say this, youll read most stories on this site a good 24 hours before youll see it on any other. Kudos for your outstanding election coverage! I plan on donating some $$ to show my support for the good work done on this site. Also, Id pay a fee for an ad free version of this app. Keep up the good work!

Meh

The pop-up ads are annoying and dominate the bottom of every page, and the top of (I guess youd call it a homepage). If you go to a story from an alert, the links to read more of the story dont work right unless you back out to the homepage and start over by finding the story from there. There doesnt seem to be any tangible reason to earn badges or points, or have any friends. I was really hoping the app would be more.

Ill give it a chance

I got what I paid for, free. Need to disable auto video loading and starting. RSS feeds are few or none in most topics I like. Do I have to pay more? I am one who does not mind pop up ads if the app is free and worth it. Unlike watching TV you can usually skip the ads in an app. But I havent seen an ad yet. App has some good and some bad things about it. Most were covered in previous reviews. Im sticking with it for now, hoping to get some news that is Right.

Feedback

Pls make feedback work in Apple App so I can give you some detailed feedback on new version. Thx, Rick, Herndon, VA

Red flag news

Dont like the new version. Old was better. Why did you screw with something that worked?

Worst update

I love my redflag news app, well I DID love it. The latest version is horrible! Constant ads and you have to tap, tap, tap to read one (1) full and complete story. Then when you finally think you have the full story loaded, its not, so you wait... And wait... And the app crashes! Reopen the app, scroll till you re-find that certain story, and tap, tap, tap and close ads in between tapping, think your full and complete story will finally load, but again it isnt, so again you wait, and wait, all the while chanting to yourself please dont crash again, please dont crash again, only to have the app crash again! Whats the point of a news app when you cannot read the entire article? I paid for the app way back because I loved it. This? This I despise! If redflag refuses to go back to the older, tried and true version of their app Ill just be forced to delete it. Why, oh why would you change an app so completely when its just fine the way it is and is so very popular? For money? I know it takes money but couldnt you just include your $1.00 monthly fee into the old, better format of your app? I would have gladly paid $1.00 a month just to keep that format. But this? THIS?? Just so you could force a bunch of ads to try to force us, your loyal customer base, to force our hands into paying to remove the ads- thats totally and completely wrong. The app is junk now, and NOW you want us to pay? You should have just asked us to pay with the version of the app that we liked, enjoyed and could actually use! But I believe, if I remember correctly, you said you would never charge for redflag. So this way, your not actually charging us, we have to opt out of ads and pay for the privilege. Your STILL charging for something you claimed would remain free. We bought your app because we liked it. Now we have to pay again, to support it and keep it alive- fine. But dont completely change the app, breaking the app in the process and then expect us to pay. Say goodbye to your supporting, PAYING base until you give us back the previous app version that we all came to love and that actually worked! I hope and pray redflag comes to their senses, and soon!

Worst version ever!!

Tired of all the ads coming up as I am reading a story. Its not 1 or 2 ads but multiple ads that find me back on the homepage and having to close the app. Sorry guys but complete garbage. Shouldnt have updated.

Disappointed

I was super excited to download this app. Then when I started browsing and wanted to post something to Twitter, the app wanted my Twitter password and account name. Talk about a redflag. Delete!

RFN

This app display is too chunky and slow.

Outstanding

Love this app get great news the media blacks out.

Disappointed & Dejected

I no longer can comment on articles because I do have nor want a Facebook or twitter account. Did love the articles but App is no longer interactive for me which is a downside. Am removing App.
