Pros and cons of newsworthies app for iPhone and iPad
newsworthies app good for
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.
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.
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!
Some bad moments
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!!
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.
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
I cant use the app anymore due to pop up adds - I have to shut down so Im deleting the app
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.
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.
