RATING & COMMENTS OF BBC NEWS

“Simply put, the best place to find news and stories is the BBC. On all of my phones and tablets, the BBC Android app suffers stability problems, which is unfortunate. When I try to play a video, it frequently crashes, possibly when the ad is loading. Sometimes the advertisement is followed by the actual video. Additionally, image advertising can affect how articles render. The widget has terrible flickering when scrolled on all of my devices. Up until the device is reset, it frequently becomes completely blank along with the rest of the app.- Andreas.O”

“Excellent one-stop shop for all international news; I appreciate how many of the items come from BBC correspondents. Journalists dedicate their lives to uncovering the truth, particularly when it comes to reports on national human rights crimes. The app itself is quick and fluid, with minimally bothersome advertising and notifications. The notification sound is a little too long and hoarse; it may be cut down to make it less distracting when it plays during a meeting or other situation. – Frank.X”

App is so-so. Seems to stop functioning every time there’s a new Android update and takes a while for them to catch up. Videos frequently can’t be played (but that might be an issue related to the country from which one is viewing). More the fault of the BBC editorial side, the articles are constantly riddled with basic copy errors, missing or repeated words, jumbled sentence syntax. It’s embarrassing for such a respected news organization. Really bad.
Blanche D – ★★★★★
Extremely happy with this app and with the comprehensive BBC coverage of news. It has written, , well laid out, informative articles with a combination of facts, explanations, and analyses. It also has excellent photographs and videos. I haven’t encountered any problems with the app and it seems to work flawlessly.
Ann de Vries – ★★★★★
A good, reliable app & trustworthy news source. I like that articles are in bolder font that I can easily read if I’ve laid my glasses somewhere!One thing I’ve never liked is their notifications. A photo w/ 1 line of text doesn’t compel me to click. And now their non-photo notifs have gone from 3 tantalizing lines to 1 incomplete thought line (LINE not sentence). I read less BBC now bc their competition (WaPo, NYT, & AP) all notify w/ 3 lines, so I’ve checked THEM & already read THEIR versions.
