I like the varied news sources with the MSN app, but with Microsoft being in the top 3 of the I.T. game, you'd think they would figure out how to get the correct video to play when you tap on you want to watch from the home page. Plus, it seems that half of the stories on the homepage are videos that you cannot access. I've left feedback twice re this and nothing changes. Will probably uninstall and go to another news app, again!

I only downloaded this for the "deals" section. Not sure what the point of the rest of the app is since it's basic stuff you could do with things that come pre-downloaded on a phone, but whatever. Anyways, the deals section barely works. Half the time you can't scan a receipt. I had a special gas deal not go through, put in a ticket, and never got a response back. I waited over a month. Just awful. Definitely not worth the few pennies you get back. There are definitely better apps for that.

The most comprehensive news app I've found, and the dark mode is essential. I won't use a news app without it. Use it on my laptops too. Even has comics, like a real newspaper. BUT it has a basic problem: it responds poorly to touch! I often have to tap several times to get an item to open, sometimes I have to press and hold, sometimes things won't open at all. It's very inconsistent, and it's not my phone, every other app works fine. You'd think this is like Coding 101 for a touch screen app.
