2019 - all of the below has been addressed. But the app hasn't updated stories since last week. 2017 - Now all the "top stories" are sports-related and there's less and less relevant news. Probably going to quit using this app. 2016 - Slower, harder to navigate, opens browser for stories instead of staying self-contained. At least please add a side swipe to the next story like every other news app has.

The app hasn't updated or changed stories in 4+ days. I've tried updating it, reloading and it's still frozen. Unlikely I'll keep it if it stays like this.
