Yahoo News: Live, Breaking, US 17+

Was using a web browser to access news w/o problems but would drain a battery in nothing flat.
Tried newsroom... Worse than using a web browser.
Any article you click on might:
1) display both article & comments normally.
2) display article for a second or two then show a white screen freezing up.
3) display black screen, no article text and freeze solid.
Yahoo pop up asking how you like the app does not handle feedback at all. The app will appear to go to a web browser but nothing is displayed but a black page.
Not a error free user friendly app and the fact yahoo change management is a free-for-all throw it in to see if it works system, you need patience... A lot of patience.
Given the quality and credibility of yahoo news as well as the immature posts you may want to forego messing with the app, use your web browser.
Update:
Another fault in the app... Watch the apps storage use closely. It grows by leaps and bounds never freeing storage. You only upsilon is to delete and reinstall the app to do so.
Update2:
Once used and removed, one can not access yahoo news and login via their web browser.

This used to be my go to news app for years. Not any longer.

1. Loud videos suddenly start. I’ve searched settings and cannot find a way to stop loud videos from jarringly startling me. I read late at night and in quiet places. I want control of the sound and Yahoo has wrestled that control away. Non negotiable.

2. They have changed the format to slow moving pictures with a few words underneath. Slow, uninformative, and a major waste of time. Uninformative.

3. The whole app has moved towards a stylistic look and away from a news feed. Glam over substance. If I wanted some stylistic slick app, I would download one. What a shame.

4. I want news. Just news. Articles with a headline and something to read, along with a simple photo or two. The news is no longer first and forefront on this app. What happened to this NEWS app?

I deleted the app after the recent terrible changes. Waited a few weeks and decided to try again. Reloaded it just now. Second story I clicked on immediately had a loud. Loud. Loud. LOUD newscaster blabbering on. It was jarring and uninvited. It wasn’t labeled as a video, looked like a news story. Again checked settings, unable to mute the news videos

Deleted the app again. Going back to other news feeds

About every other time I "Newsroom," they bug me to read and review the app. So, here goes: not much to say good or bad about the content itself as for the most part they are simply repeating "news" from other sources, a few reliable, most unreliable and biased like Huffington Post on the one hand, or FOXNews on the other. I use the app because it is generally handier than buying a newspaper; as with the newspaper, one must continually "read between the lines" in order to get a sense of what's going on out there minus the liberal or conservative bias. As far as their constant requests to rate and review, when the request appears it is impossible to respond to it without closing out of the app and going to the App Store. It is a veritable nuisance, so now that I have written a review I hope it won't happen again.
