This is an awesome news program. I carefully selected what news sources I preferred (including local TV channel news sources) and those preferences are exactly what is shown. Haystack is also available on the Roku - so I added it to both my Roku devices. Brilliant work developers!

You know what I love about Haystack? Absolutely nothing. it's bad enough that the audio sync has never worked. What's even more ridiculous is that I never get today's news. Yesterday is gone, yet that's what I'm getting today on my phone and TV. Par for the course my issues are ignored by customer support. Perhaps it's because I refuse the pay wall. The app (to me) needs a major overhaul. Yesterday's news, oh brother. Uninstalling this garbage.🗑🗑🗑🗑
