| 2025-01-22 |  | | This is NOT a News App. It's Loaded With Advertisements, more than %65 of the page, where they trick you into clicking by making it look like a news article. Also, most "news" articles that you click on either have 5 bullet points, or 2 sentences regarding said news article. Most actual news articles are a link to another clickbait news page who may or may not have made a more in depth article. Prove Me Wrong! 💯🫳🎤 |
| 2025-01-12 |  | | Well this app is installed thinking I can use it for my kids phone which are metro ...and my service is boost mobile ..it has been popping up automatically..I can't uninstall so I went into app info ...cleared data, forced stop and it's been off so far ...I also checked my app store and stopped automatic updates on apps..I would not recommend this app to anyone..it's needs to be taken off app store entirely...no good NO STARS !!!! |
| 2025-01-04 |  | | It keeps popping up out if no where, when I'm trying to do anything , everything. My phone rings I tap to answer, and Metro starts opening different screens one on top of the other. It does thus when I open my camera to take a Pic, to make a call, to send a message,play a game, check accounts, even when I try to Google something. It's very aggravating especially when I can't even answer my phone , because if it. |
| 2024-10-28 |  | | It's so effin frustrating talking to the people at Metro customer service. thatI started to switch devices with the automated person (which supposedly is free) and we get all the way to the end and she switches me to a live person..when I start speaking to a live person I literally told em multiple times my info just for them to tell me"in order to switch devices (bcuz it's a live person) it's a $25 fee"I never asked to speak to them I got switched over...and that's all they kept saying $25 $25 |
| 2024-10-27 |  | | If I wanted news, I would go watch the news or look up news. I like having the option to choose. What I don't like is having something crammed down my throat, being forced to look at something I already dislike, popping up non-stop. What nonsense. There's not a single control to adjust settings or anything!!!??? Why? I've had this phone for one day and already I want to throw it in a lake! |
| 2024-10-24 |  | | Horrible!!! Automatically let's the app have unrestricted battery use without the option to change it!!! TO UNINSTALL: SEARCH for the metro zone app on Google play(where I'm posting this) and click uninstall. It doesn't effect anything on your phone if deleted!! Then go to the apps icon, click and hold until option pop up, click info. When screen pops up click on disable |
| 2024-10-04 |  | | Uninstall it! It doesn't do anything bad to your device, and the pain will stop. I have found no side effects from uninstalling metro zone. Be brave, and empty your cashe, delete your data, and uninstall the app if you don't like it. I have met folks who like their daily briefing, as they (my friend) refers to it. I don't, so I made it go away. Best of luck cutting those chains. |
| 2024-10-02 |  | | There is no option to stop this from automatically popping up. You can't delete it without it affecting the phone itself. There are way too many unused apps that can't be removed in the phones now. I have extra storage from an SD card, new device and am out of storage because of useless apps like this one and if you try to pull up a story you have to watch an ad. |
| 2024-09-15 |  | | Just a little advice as a metro phone user, no one wants to see advertisements as soon as they unlock their phone. This is the first thing I see every single time I open my phone and its very annoying! I don't care to see the news much less multiple times a day. Also you're advertisements are extremely biased, one sided opinions in regards to politics. You're consistently advertising hit pieces, clearly you all are being paid to do so and I want no part of it. Biased media is the absolute worst |
| 2024-09-12 |  | | Very poor, I disable the app, but it still pops up as soon as as I unlock my screen, and it really seems like the apps is pushing political "preference" Do what you like. but when I hit the disable button or force stop or clear data and cache It will force itself back onto my phone pretty ridiculous it's the first thing I see on my phone wasn't like this until a certain time frame for our country kinda wierd... |
