I downloaded this not too long ago, & it started pretty good. Sometimes the articles came from "instagram" or the artist formerly known as twitter, so i couldnt read them, but i knew enough to start researching, & I could like & bookmark articles. Then an update, & we could listen to articles! I couldn't get it to work, but it was exciting. Less than 24 hours later, listening to articles and bookmarks become Paid Only features, & the "check this out" just displays an error message. unusable.

Nice News Selection but repeatedly the same bugs. Many times when I click on the notification (news) it won't load just shows the blank (Black) screen or with just the logo & blank. This happens mostly (60%) of the time.

Hi Ravindra! Thanks for the feedback. We're sorry to hear this. We've recently rolled out a fix to address this issue and notifications work reliably now. Please update the app and let us know if everything is working fine. If the fix resolves the issue for you, we’d really appreciate it if you could reconsider updating your review rating :)

not sure how I stumbled up one this but, it's perfect to stay up to date without having to read those huge articles that don't get to the point just for their benefit of reading time. absolutely love the app. please don't change it or bring a paid version, and if you do make sure it's not ridiculously priced. rather first you should look for investments from users who are willing to keep this running. anyways keep up the good work!
