The Hill

Work for one day, everything is up to date. Landscape, I can read one line at a time, with rest screen filled with video. Portrait words are cut off on sides. iPad 11.

You can’t even read an article, you get like 3 lines and then the whole rest of the screen is a video ad. This isn’t for video articles but text. Stupid.

Recent update will not work. App asks for what news alerts I want and if I want weather updates, but will not give me the option me to move past those screens to the news feed.

This used to be a good news app. But, as of a few days ago it doesnt work. I get a prompt about weather notifications then it freezes. Have tried reinstalling a couple of times, but no use. Will just have to look at the web version

You have lost a reader with the latest app update. Just as happened with NewsNation you now make it almost impossible to READ articles because the video space takes up 3/4 of the screen on my IPad and android phone in horizontal mode. Plus, the text is so large that it won't fit on the screen in vertical mode. Ad money from videos is the reason. Too bad, The Hill was my go to app. Now I will use Politico and Guardian. They still appreciate their readers.

Have always enjoyed articles from The Hill that come to me via other news services. So I thought “why not get their app?”, and installed it on my 3rd Gen SE. My first impression was good, especially when I turned my phone sideways and the app adapted. And then I opened an article to read… The scrolling is so jittery that I uninstalled right away. There is no excuse for this when virtually no one else has such an issue, and I’m surprised it even made it into the App Store. A bad reflection on Apple as well as Nexstar Media. Both should be embarrassed.

The hill I thought was supposed to be different from other news networks and just report the facts. It’s very clear the direction the company leans. Time after time they take a side and you can see it in their reporting. They are not reporting the news they are reporting a narrative. Being disappointed I came here to write a review and what does the thumb nail picture have, a article portraying republican in a negative light. If you want a echo chamber for liberal Democrat talking points this is the site for you. But if you want fair, just the facts news I would suggest echo times. Do better The Hill!!

App says my device isn’t connected to internet, but that’s not true. It works fine on all other apps and works for me to post this. I couldn’t even load app support. Stop blaming others for your app problems.

The app contains relevant and well written articles which are, unfortunately, nearly impossible to read due to jumping ads and pop ups. It would be well worth the investment of the price of an ad free option but that is not available.

Deleted after about two months.
