Decent. Good content and better than Googles version especially since they are moving aggressively into AI generated news stories. However, the ads in this app are very annoying especially since it's audible. I would prefer a pay version (though definitely not subscription based). It's unlikely that I will stick with this in its current form.

We appreciate your feedback and understand how disruptive audible ads can be. It’s great to hear you enjoy the content! We’re always eager to learn how we can enhance your experience. Your thoughts on a pay version are valuable, and we’ll keep them in mind as we strive to improve. Thank you for sharing!

The graphical user interface was made for someone who needs glasses, cant read and so needs giant pictures, and has with it all the tabloid news not fit for human consumption due to a lack of a functioning chief editor at those outlets. I found the video clip section to be particularly horrific in its scope.

Too many pop-up ads, and many with audio as well! The app seems quite good, similar to Google News, but it is nearly unusable with so many pop-up ads. If you peek the news at work, everyone will now within a minute with the blast of audio from the ad. They don't even give you the option to pay to disable ads, you are just expected to eat them constantly while trying to read the news. A SOLID PASS!
