Ratings and Reviews
Way to go Yahoo!!
I’m simply puzzled and strongly disagree with people who post negative remarks about Yahoo news. Some are simply rediculous. I love the trending news alerts and headlines as it keeps my attention. If I have a complaint, it’s in the name itself. “Yahoo” sounds childish or elementary even though it’s also has become an American brand name. But keep up the great work and your willingness to evolve with our changing times!! MANA (Make America Normal Again)!!! I miss boring and Normal!!!
Swipe Controls Horrible
The new swipe controls to exit an article is too close to the motion used to simply scroll through the article while reading. It is so annoying to be reading an article and the app closes because it thinks you are swiping to go back to the main page.
It is so frustrating the app is almost unusable at this point. I don't usually rate this app because its just a news aggregate. But this change has enraged me so much because of the habit I have in using this app and is a increased level of stress because of the frustration of simply "reading the paper". It is the equivalent of reading a newspaper in a tornado.
Get rid of this feature immediately.
Not a good product
There are countless problems with this app. Here are a few. The app highjacked My Yahoo news feed. I understand that it is a Yahoo product, but there really isn’t any better way to describe an abrupt change in format of a different app without a way to toggle back to the original app. Another problem is that the Privacy statement is in Spanish. The entire legal package including all the weasel language is in English, except for the Privacy statement. Oath seems to be involved with the Privacy statement. However all I can find is a hip hop ad trying to tell me how cool Oath is without telling what Oath does. An additional problem is that there is now way to track your comments.
