Good News Network

While reading certain articles, the entire screen will be taken over by a pop-up ad periodically.

I’m with you Partytyme! I’m so tired of seeing, hearing, and reading so much negativity! The world can’t possibly be such a bad place! Enter Good News Network into my life and WOW! I’m so grateful! Plus I’m learning new things with each article I read! I left the evening news and the many news apps I HAD, in favor of this one! You do a great job with the articles you provide! Keep up the good work and thank you!

Please give us the option for a dark background. The white just burns my eyeballs when I try to read it at night. Which is primarily when I read. Five stars otherwise. Love the positivity.

There are more pop ads now than there is good news. It’s now worse than the global news we’re all trying to avoid. Too aggressive to deal with. Too bad was a great source for science news but I’m going elsewhere. Thanks for all the past great news though!

I can understand ads to help make an app pay for itself but isn’t there some law that you have to actually click on the ad for it to open? I tried to read one story and I had 2-3 ads just randomly open. It’s annoying enough I am going to remove the app. The stories are a good selection of positive news but there are only a handful a day, not enough to actually pay to remove the ads.

All the details below are completely true. But a major caveat is the screen take over pop up ads. I can understand all manner of ads but these are so aggressive and pop up every 10 secs. It’s truly aggravating. I suppose they make so bad so you either subscribe to 2.99 per month or you just never open it again. Seems like there could be a middle ground? Perhaps not. With the onslaught of never ending news cycles focused on all the negative things happening around is, GNN is a beacon. Good things happen everyday too, and we all have far more in common than we are constantly led to believe. I like that they list sources and the stories aren't fluff pieces. I think my stress level has been slashed in half after rotating this news in.

The ads are annoying. They click themselves randomly and constantly. Also, there is a clear bias at time politically in certain articles. This takes much away from the experience.

This is the news app that’s worth your time. It’s hard to get positive, uplifting, but also informative news and this is the app that gets it right. Even if you’re skeptical, just install it anyway and just take that pop-in away from your usual feed to check this one out. If you read as much as I do, you’ll notice the difference. Dear GNN - feature request for Dark/Dim Mode. Thanks!

Dumps a bunch of tracking cookies on your phone. Which didn’t stop me from using it. Then today, I was treated to a long politically, fear based commercial that I was forced to watch if I wanted to see the story. Uh uh. Deleted immediately. I now regret recommending to friends.

I can’t read an article without being sent through “double click” for ads. This happens even when I am not touching the screen. Horrible experience. Deleting app.
