## Birmingham Live Reviews in United Kingdom

### *---- "Pathetic"
The amount of one star reviews tells you everything you need to know.  
I dumped this app a long time ago, couldn’t stand the bad spelling and grammar.
-- stuart5066789, 2024-12-07

### **--- "D"
Apps ok, just a little bit sensitive on the comment section. Half the comments I type aren't offensive, yet they get blocked
-- KDKD86, 2024-11-10

### *---- "Annoying Auto Ad Scroll"
When reading a story there is a new unwanted feature where as all of a sudden the page just auto scrolls into an ad further down. Disgusting attempt at forcing people into reading ads they have no intention of.
-- Letshavit, 2024-09-05

### *---- "Rubbish"
Abysmal, doesn’t refresh & the spelling is atrocious.
-- DWW1958, 2024-04-22

### *---- "Useless app"
Useless app can’t use it anymore half the stories aren’t local news anyway awful
-- dvhfg)jfsvhigvj, 2024-03-18

### *---- "Worse then before since update"
The app doesn’t even work, keeps saying refresh! Useless!!
-- Zee8726, 2024-03-11

### *---- "Deleted!!!!"
Shocking they want to charge you to read now…. No way am i paying this company, go jog on!!!!!!
-- Alexhickman89, 2023-12-15

### *---- "Poor"
Having had this app for years today I deleted it, suddenly you limited to 25 articles a week and the interface is shocking, you now needs 2 hands to read the stories as the back button no longer work. The articles are confusing and it takes several reads to actually understand what the reporter is trying to say

One star is generous wanted no stars
-- Jojogoreading, 2023-12-10

### *---- "Limited to 25 articles per week"
What’s the point in being a local source of information and putting a limit of 25 articles per week? Rather deal with more ads than have to subscribe.
-- Warm Cactus, 2023-11-28

### *---- "Chasing the £"
Good for local news however after the update you are limited to 25 articles a week unless you pay a premium.
-- Boltbolt10, 2023-11-18

### *---- "Pay for poor stories"
I use this app as a brummie living out of town to see news about my old area but now they started blocking stories off unless you pay £20 a year! Why would I pay £20 of my hard earned money for something thats always been free and quite frankly isn’t worth a pound a year. Whoever came up with this idea just trying to take advantage of an already strained society give your head a wobble and sort it out.
-- Zoghead82, 2023-11-05

### *---- "Pay For News"
Now you have to pay to look through more than 25 articles a week lmao what a joke what an absolute joke just ridiculous makes me laugh. Good riddance to the app sticking to BBC NEWS app instead. Joke joke joke beyond joke.
-- Rocky328, 2023-11-02

### *---- "Who asked for an update?"
Don’t like the new update… scrolling, scrolling, scrolling.  I feel your more excited than your readers. I may have to delete it…
-- Gallis 244, 2023-10-23

### *---- "Reduced categories & a bug"
The new update has a lot less news categories. For instance, only one of the local teams is featured.

Also, whenever I try to see the list of my own comments, the app crashes.
-- IanR99, 2023-10-18

### *---- "Ruined the app"
The latest update has made this app totally impersonalised - all of the setting that I had and am supposed to still have are gone and it’s just a stream of whatever the author imposes. Won’t be using again - total homogenised rubbish
-- smudgersmythe, 2023-10-18

### *---- "Disgrace"
So now you can only read 25 articles per week unless you pay for the privilege Birmingham Live your a disgrace
-- naomi1509, 2023-10-16

### *---- "Useless"
Signing up to the Birmingham mail is easy and everyone makes derogatory comments in the villa and blues section. But rather than get rid of all the culprits, they ban some and leave others alone to carry on being abusive. The content of the app is questionable, especially the football.
-- ThorGodOfThunder.., 2023-09-03

### *---- "Only bad news"
Nothing but bad news, days in and days out, surely there some good news too
-- Yene2020, 2023-08-08

### ***** "Pete / Lichfield"
Great news coverage, Sports can’t wait for the new Football season to start. 
Thanks again BirminghamLive. 
Pete Villa fan.
-- Lichfield Pete, 2023-07-10

### *---- "Can no longer use it"
I enjoyed using this app often. I’m on an iPhone 6. I can text and call fine but because I can’t update my iOS to 14 I lose out on now being able to use the app. As a 50 year old man I don’t need to keep buying the new phones. So this update has killed the app for me. Wish developers would revert back. Sad.
