Ads just keep popping up nonstop. The app is useless.

App now plays Ad’s You attempt to read a clip on a news article, within a few moments an Ad pops up. Cant finish the reading the article, even if you allow the Ad to play out. Once you clear it, the same Ad pops back in again. I get Ad’s are needed to help pay for the services, but it should clear after the ad has played Tv has commercials, but the commercials will eventually end

Ads now pop up on every article multiple times, making the content unreadable.

I have used the app for years and loved it. I stream it almost all day. A couple times a day I will read the news stories. Now however, there are pop up adds and adds for games that have made it virtually impossible to read even a paragraph of a story. If it keeps up I’m deleting the app. It’s unbareable.

The app is generally pretty good. It could be better if it reformatted when i turn my iPad to landscape format instead of portrait. Having the ability to personalize the default zip code for the weather forecast would be good improvements for those of us that live in the suburbs.

I have had this app for years on my phone and always enjoyed reading the Baltimore news but just in the last 2 weeks the pop up ads will not stop. Every time I open a story and advance the verbiage an ad for a game comes on and even if it plays to the entirety it will not stop coming back up. I even deleted the app and downloaded it again but that did not work. Is there a solution for this?

This was once a straightforward app. But recently pop up ads are out of control. If there is no way to prevent them I will delete the app.

Why even say you offer streaming when it never works? It’s sad that such a simple technology (geolocation) can’t be applied correctly. I am in Washington DC so I am surrounded by eligible listening areas, however the app always tells me I am not. What a waste.

I’ve used this app for years and for the most part it gets the job done. I’ve noticed over that last week for whatever reason the app now plays an intro clip when connecting to the stream which sometimes overlaps with the stream and causes it to stop. Also, now whenever I try to mute the app temporarily using the app’s mute button, or turn down your volume all the way the stream disconnects. I don’t know if this was part of a recent update but it is frustrating.

Streaming cuts out while driving. Presumably when the phone moves from cell to cell.
