Biased reporting on developing countries and no reporting critical of the west. Couldn’t find anything about the recent judgment of the Working Group on Arbitrary Detention that the US is unlawfully holding prisoner AIM activist and world-wide human rights icon Leonard Peltier solely because he is Native American and not because he’s guilty of any crime (for 47 years).

issues
way too many notifications and when I click then the article never loads. tried updating and reinstalling.
Great app
Love keeping up with international news, but I can’t stand the fact that if you leave the app it doesn’t start back where you left off. Also, on the iPad, the first highlighted article at the top of the list is never pressable. This is usually the story I want to read as it’s the most pressing. Please change this functionality and I’m happy to change the rating to 5 stars.
This app helped in my research for my MUN

UPDATE
Update needed, at least format to fit new iPhone screen sizes.
Please UPDATE
I really like this app but it needs to update to iOS 8 format and iPhone 6 capability. It'll make it more pleasing to look at.
It would be chill....
If you could allow the app to turn sideways. So when I charge my phone I can read the stories about the world around me?
Need a little work
This new version is a better deal than the last version but you guys left the push notifications on the old version... Please update this one!!!
Hopeful, but doesn't deliver
I was excited to see the newer format and style, but it doesn't load any stories. Hopefully there will be a patch soon?
