The news and functionality are good. But the ads are too frequent, appearing on every article on top of the pages. The "x" function reduces the size of the ad but they still obscure some of the reading area. UPDATE: I am uninstalling this app and just bookmarking the website. I still get push notifications although I turned off all push notifications. it's quite frustrating. I like APNews but the app is not good, in my opinion.

I only want breaking news which I have set in my app settings but I am constantly getting alerts for things like how to control bed bugs and the history of calendars. Rarely am I alerted for actual breaking news. Uninstalling, will try someone else.

Uninstalled after 5 minutes. Was a good multiple sourced news service. API - and this app especially - go incredibly far overboard with ads and asking for subscriptions and donations. The phrase "As subtle as a brick to the face - twice or three times" comes to mind - aka "How to drive off most of your potential donors"
