User reviews

In the notifications you see a news article of interest. You click that specific notification , and guess what? Nothing. You won't see that news article. Retarded app. You can't share any articles. It just shares a photo. And if you view an article and look at something else, it's gone. There's no such thing as going back

I get news notifications from this app daily. Some headlines look interesting so I select them to check them out. 99% of the time, the app opens up to the news story I clicked on, and goes black within 30 seconds. Sometimes, I'll be in the middle of reading an article, and then it either goes black or jumps to a different story, and I'm unable to read/find the article I wanted in the first place. After over a year of this behavior, I'm uninstalling.

If you're using this to get MS rewards points each day, don't bother. MS made some changes recently, it seems, and searches almost never register. If you want the full 100 points a day for doing mobile searches, prepare yourself to have to open the app 15 times over the course of the day and just hope that a search or two registers before they just suddenly stop. As far as news goes, it's fine. I'd rather use the default Google news or an app specifically for news.
