Great app if you don't mind ads literally covering up the content you're trying to read! And it keeps getting worse! The ads are placed right in the way of the articles! When you try to x out of the ad, most of the time it opens the ad content anyway. I understand the need but they're way more intrusive than need be! Please stop! The ads have gone from bad to unbelievably worse! The response is "the ads are out of our control".... Well someone should control it because this app is now unusable!

I still love the app, but it is getting really annoying lately. It keeps restarting after I read 10 or so articles. It does in the middle of flipping and goes all the way back to the beginning with no option to continue where it left off. Also, more and more providers require that you subscribe. It's not a Flipboard problem, but it is something you need to be aware of.

Customizable personal news. They give you what you're interested in so I can make the best use of my time. ******* Update ****** It's getting to be annoying that it keeps popping up stories I don't care for and there is NO WAY to turn it off even I repeatedly choose ”Show less like this”! ***** 12/15/2022 ***** Don't like the extra steps to add caption before choosing and adding into existing magazine. It's a good idea but wrong execution.
