## BBC: World News & Stories Reviews in Spain

### *---- "Constant network errors"
About once a day it can’t load content saying I’m not connected to a network. I am. Very strange for a major publisher to have such a terrible backend experience.
-- SamBetts, 2024-06-05

### *---- "Not an improvement."
This used to be a great news app. Now it’s terrible. Not all development is improvement.
-- Philfost, 2024-05-27

### *---- "The dictionary not work"
After upgrading it on 5 may 24, I cannot mark a word and search it in the dictionary. I’m Very dissapointed!!
-- jd.tmp1, 2024-05-05

### *---- "With the las update i cannot translate"
Last version do not let me to select words and then translate them. This option was useful for me to learn english.
-- Dadiago, 2024-04-21

### *---- "Revert back to previous version"
This is now a browser. Irritating as hell to keep dealing with cookie prompts. Ugly colours too. Not going to use this app anymore until its back to being an app. Not browser…
-- L K, 2024-04-17

### *---- "Crappy update"
1 The most popular section is gone, 2 The interface is now like an embedded browser, worst experience ever For 3 A huge login interface pops up every time you open the app after closing it, saying it is annoying is to put it mildly Conclusion: 1 star is being kind
-- Dijeseisdkdkkd, 2024-04-09

### *---- "Not worth it"
The once great "Most Read" section is gone, and the whole app is a mess in general. There’s also a nag to log in every time you open the app. Bye.
-- tutankhamen-1, 2024-04-07

### *---- "Give us back the previous version!"
The new App is ugly, more difficult to read, user unfriendly. Why changing something that was perfect???
-- MyCoke, 2024-04-06

### **--- "Bring back the sound"
The red theme has dissapeared, but most importantly, the notification sound was the BBC News tune, now it’s another random, pointless noise in the every day notification world.
An app that now has nothing special.
-- SirIbai, 2024-04-02

### **--- "Why get rid of most read?"
The only reason I used this app was for the succinct “most read” section. Now that is gone and we have some dodgy web view of their main website. 

I’ll never understand how this got through UX testing.
-- Peter Iphone 13 IIIIII, 2024-03-27

### ***-- "Navigation not as easy in this latest version"
Regarding the latest version what happened to swipe left - previous article or home page - and right - next article - to navigate smoothly ? Now you have to scroll back up to see and actually click on the "back" arrow. For the rest the app is still as useful (I don't actually see the difference with the previous version)
-- jpajot, 2024-03-22

### *---- "I hate the new app"
I can’t select the topics that i like as i used to
-- TheGreatKakaroto, 2023-12-28

### **--- "latest version is poorer"
I have been forced to download the latest version which does not allow me to select the topics on my feed as before, and seems to have fewer news in general.
Reporting is poorer every year, with many pieces where journalists write on what is happening in tweeter or other networks rather than doing actual reporting on the ground. It has always been one the best sources of information and we are letting it die little by little. We will suffocate with it.
best wishes, C.
-- CDlitos, 2023-12-22

### *---- "News content does not refresh or update"
When opening the app, the news is not automatically refreshed like it did in previous versions. In fact, even restarting the app the main page still shows old news. Another app that updated itself and no longer works…
-- Champi Flower, 2023-12-20

### ***-- "Functionality"
Like the news part of it. But for UX/UI It’s very annoying that when you tap the home button the news feed doesn’t scroll back up to the top.
-- djnosey, 2023-12-15

### *---- "Hate latest version"
Bbc has removed tha ability to personalise your news feed. The app now has no point.
-- Gold.fish, 2023-12-15

### *---- "Uninstalled"
Why change a good app to something that is not user friendly.. I tried really.. I can’t see my news, can’t chose topics.. i like to chose what i read.. So i un installed.. hopefully the designers rethink their bad choice and give us more options like before..
-- JA-spain, 2023-12-11

### **--- "Why fix something that wasn’t broken?"
The new app is awful. I can’t choose topics relevant to me anymore. I somehow have a Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales section, but no England section (where I’m from). It’s awful to navigate and I don’t understand why they went from a great app to a terrible app… I only gave 2 stars because it decent journalism when I can find things, otherwise it would be 1.
-- RPN-91, 2023-11-15

### *---- "Virtually useless now"
With the latest update I will abandon this app. Basic faults include having to restart to update news feeds, inability to personalise news interests easily, and always leading with the current BBC live feed that is a hopelessly abbreviated news source for those with the attention span of a gnat. Bye bye BBC news app. I will stick with the World Service global news update from now on.
-- Patrick 774 Fish, 2023-11-07

### **--- "Bring back the old app!!!"
From being one of the best news apps, it is now one of the worst. No longer able to personalise the news feeds. Sterile look. A huge step backwards!
-- Wilco1964, 2023-11-05
