The content is great, but the app has annoyances compared to others. Video boxes follow you as you scroll taking up screen real estate and making you close them on every single article. Also takes up cell data when you don't need/want it to -- if I wanted video I would have clicked on the video tab at the bottom. Ad bar at the bottom of every page is persistent, in addition to scrolling ads on pages (other apps have only scrolling ads, which is a much more pleasant experience). Not a joy to use.

The frequent pop-up videos overwriting the text I'm reading are extremely annoying to me!! Follow-up: Your response to my being annoyed about frequent pop-up windows covering what I'm reading (and to other reviewers with the same complaint) is to give instructions on how to dismiss/delete it, i.e., by tapping the X in the pop-up window. Well, duh!! You really think we don't know that? That's no solution! The problem is the frequent interruptions caused by these annoying pop-ups!

I enjoy the app and like how I can get real local news vs fluff news. I do like the investigative journalism and stories that matter. It would be a great helpful addition to add dark mode. One step further..to get local cbs news radio stations. Best regards
