I like the App for the most part. It's open news not significantly censored comments unless vitriolic. The problem I have is ads that randomly pop up that have forced sound. One should not have to be worried that random attention is brought up due to an app. Again not against ads understandable. Bills have to be paid & users might find something interesting. However give us an option to mute or turn on a close caption for ads.

Greed should be the name of this app. I don't believe I have ever seen so many ads in one app. This app it's not only loaded with ads which make it junky looking to begin with but the Articles themselves just repeat over and over as you scroll down. Not to mention the fact that when you do click on an article to read it takes you to the new page which requires you to tap on continue reading which often takes you to a website on available page. What a waste of time!!!
