too many commercials way too many, you get 2 minutes of news and 5 minutes commercials, they are not even well made commercials

The app used to be ok but ever since some nonsensical update, they have taken the ability to use the back button on android away instead, it just closes the app where it used to only bring you back to the home page unless tapping it multiple times then it would close the app. Also who ever thought that putting 5 to 6 clickable ad links in the middle of a story was a good idea is not too bright, the idea is to drive use of the app not deter its use and with the ad placement it deters it.

worst sports reporting compared to other apps I have. plus you have other stories that are posted way too long. I now mainly use this app to see what the weather is going to be.
