## The South African Reviews in South Africa

### *---- "Terrible"
Was so looking forward to this. On iPhone 12 Pro Max the app does not even open.
-- High Vape, 2022-11-16

### *---- "App won’t even start up on my phone"
I am yet to see what the app even looks like… every time I open the app, a white screen pops up and that’s it. No content, nothing. I have deleted and re-downloaded the app multiple times, but nothing has helped. Very disappointing.
-- Jane Blu, 2022-08-23

### *---- "No longer works"
App no longer works on IOS 15. News is average. Bias like everywhere else.
-- RichardRiga94, 2022-05-23

### ***-- "App not working"
Doesn’t work at all on my 13pro
-- SuvSingh21, 2022-05-20

### *---- "The app keeps on crashing and never updates"
Been using this app on IOS 14 on an iPhone 11 pro, but it continually crashes whenever I exit out of an article. Even when opening the app; the screen is white with no signs of any article showing being displayed. When the articles does miraculously load, all news items are shown from the 4 months ago… Really disappointed with this app.
-- Game pop 24568, 2021-11-02

### ****- "Stuck‼️"
The App is stuck on 27/7/21.

### ***** "South African News"
Exceptional actual live news. It keeps us abreast of what’s happening in our beloved country
-- NevaTru, 2020-10-02

### ***** "Frequently down"
Basically a great app that is always updated with the latest news, but every few days it stops working. Have to delete and download the app every time.
-- MarkusK57, 2020-06-12

### ***** "Love it."
News is current and objective, written in plain land credible language.
-- Carollh, 2020-04-23

### ***** "Works exactly as advertised"
App is quick, easy to use and provides helpful news alert notifications. Delivers as promised.
-- capetownpaul, 2019-09-23
