The ads in this app are completely out of control. I can never really get to the news story because the screen scrolls with videos and pop-ups that are some of the most annoying Iโve ever encountered. Why does every news story have to have a video attached to the top of it, most of which donโt even relate to the story? I appreciate the attempt at being unbiased, but if it means paying for a subscription to get these ads out-of-the-way, and if there is some possible way for you to remove the videos on top of every news article, I might use it more. Until then. the app stinks.
I use reading glasses but my eyes are not bad enough to need a prescription. Most apps I can read without my readers but this app pretty much mandates that I use them. Other news apps will allow me to zoom in on the words where The Hill wonโt. The font is already very small and not allowing a person to physically zoom the font in any way turns me off completely. It canโt be that difficult to permit some type of zoom to allow us to make the font bigger. I had to give this app 2 stars because itโs so inconvenient to actually use. Very unfortunate that the developers wonโt make an accommodation. Iโve asked before but they seem to just not care.
I like the app. A lot of the issues other reviews complain about have been fixed. The reporting is good, with (roughly) an equal amount of bias in either side. A BIG issue, though, is that it does not have breaking news notifications. This is a major downside. If it werenโt for this issue, this app would be one of my primary news sources. Honestly, itโs kind of worthless to me without breaking news updates. I strongly encourage the all developers: add notifications!!
