I gave a 2 star because it's only good for watching live.. The videos you can choose between at the bottom are incorrectly labeled or something. I click on the trump speech, and it shows the Kamala conceded speech that I watched 2 videos up from it.. That wasn't the only instance, it's just the one before I decided to finally make a review. (If you full screen the video, then hit the home button so it is smaller, screen lock your phone, and hit play it works like a podcast, at least on android)

This app is SO incredibly frustrating! There is so much "stuff" on my screen that I can't read an article. I understand the need for ads, and that's not my complaint, but 'learn more' boxes pop up without an X that allows you to close them out. Plus, there are banners at the bottom of the page promoting CBS shows, and that further limits the space for news content. Then, the aforementioned ads. NBC is a much cleaner app than CBS or ABC. I keep trying your app, but it's just too frustrating.

Karen Gatlin, 2024-11-04

I really want to love CBS News, but I find it distracting to have ads pop up on the screen while I'm trying to read. I understand that ads help support the app, but maybe there could be a subscription option instead. The fonts for news articles have changed, used to be larger. Now they're too small. I really do like it, but these issues are holding me back from fully embracing it. As a result, I've had to turn to other sources for my news. Thank you..
