Sport is not breaking news. Give me a way to not receive sports notifications. I don't have it selected as an interest but you still send Ashes notifications 5 times a day.

ABC should work on reporting more accurately. It's rather apparent why it's not possible to comment on their YouTube video uploads.

Over cluttered UI makes it difficult to get the news you are interested in and ignore the rest. Need more settings to remove / hide junk and find the real news ... thank goodness I have the BBC News app ...

after recent updates, the app has become horribly slow. honestly, while the old app might not have all of the fancy new features, it was a quick and very efficient app. bad outcome with the new app 😞

I've enjoyed using this app as my main news source for many years. There's been the odd bug but two new ones have popped up recently that are quite annoying. 1) frequent "no internet connection" when I do have a connection. 2) tapping notifications for new stories shows the same story repeatedly. After a phone restart it works the first time but then keeps going to that story for subsequent notifications. It's like it remembers the first link and keeps using the same one until a restart.

It's all there, the ABC News I want to read, but why is it like this?? Why are the categories I'm interested in hidden down the bottom of a menu? Why is the "for you" section full of irrelevant feel-good stories I would be incredibly unlikely to read, instead of the latest or unread articles from the 3 categories I've listed in my profile?? (This is beyond explanation surely) Why make it so hard to read the news?

I can't access my saved stories. I click on saved and it goes to the next screen, everything is light grey, then nothing happens.

No scrollbar so no idea how long an article is. No 'Find In Page'. No Forward button so don't hit Back accidentally or you'll never find your article again! Reorienting phone between portrait/landscape, app loses its place. And don't reorient while playing a video as it spits the dummy. No History function so you'll handily never be able to easily find even the very last article you were reading, lord forbid something from yesterday! How could they possibly make it worse? Find out next update!!

App used to be better. Current version seems to serve fluff and rubbish as top headings over crucial world news or thoughtful political and philosophical content. Seems stuff is scattered across multiple locations as well. I can probably solve this by creating an account and tailoring it to my taste but I DONT WANT TO CREATE YET ANOTHER ACCOUNT! Or have it tracked. Old app allowed one to customise better without an account and seemed better at giving you an overview.
