  • Not current; not news

    Wikipedia is more current than Google News. I’m tired of a news feed that shows articles from days or weeks ago. C’mon Google!
  • Constant lockouts

    Been using google news for a long time. It’s honestly a good source for headlines but the use stops there. Yes some articles are free and others cost money which is understandable. What isn’t understandable is why when you do hit a paywall your entire app is locked down. You can’t go back. You have to close the app. I don’t believe an app should be allowed to lock your phone down like that into a pay trap - I won’t call it a paywall because you can turn back from a wall. Also the app is full of clickbait and advertising that hijacks your phone screen. It would be easy for Google to fix this but money is more important to them and they will never do anything.
  • Terrible App

    This app is horrible. Every time I click the thumbs down “fewer articles like this,” it puts an article in the down-rated article’s place that had the same headline, only from a different outlet.
  • Very Buggy

    The app seems to have some pretty major bugs. I regularly will have the article I’m reading disappear half way through due to an unexpected error.
  • Spoilers Galore

    God forbid I google two things about f1, this app literally constantly spoils race after race and movie and show after moving and show. It's like there is literally no filter over what notifications are allowed to be sent. So now i have to disable having the entire concept of news notify my of anything from my phone because google can't just allow you to not spoil things.....there is no setting to turn that off. This app is trash and old.
  • Far left ad filled crash-app

    I don’t mind left, right and center articles, but this app pushes the far left agenda. Go figure. 90% of the news stories require a subscription to each and every different news outlet. With all of the trackers on top of that, I’m deleting this app. Garbage.
  • Least reliable app on iPhone

    If you like being disappointed on a daily basis, this is the app for you. Clearly very little Google investment going on here otherwise the “There was an error displaying this content” problem would have been fixed years ago. Great at organizing all the world’s information; not so great at showing it.
  • Useless!

    This used to be my "go to" news source. Now, almost every item of news has a paywall, and you have to go somewhere else to get even the basic facts. Also, there is more sports stories than anything else, and you can't filter out this worthless junk.
  • A Very Google Product

    I spent more time closing ads in the news stories than actually reading them.
  • Very limited

    The world news section is an embarrassment. Maybe 10 articles at most, that’s it. Other sections may have twice as much, but as far as world news goes, it’s a joke. This is Google, not a myopic high school news paper
