NewsBreak: Local News & Alerts

I've had this app for years and liked it, except the lock screen notifications. I turned them off and they weren't an issue for a long time. Until last week when they randomly turned on again. I turned them off and forgot about it. But today the app waited until my phone was at 29 percent battery, and randomly turned them on again, and kept my phone open and drained the battery. If they turn on again, I'm uninstalling app forever.

I hate that I can never get a full news article. Halfway through the article, the screen goes white with only the header. I also don't like the intrusive nature of this app. Even with notifications turned off, the notifications are constant and you can't get the whole article! Totally useless! The ads are excessive. And now, after last update, notifications are blocking my login screen even though notifications are blocked. Time to uninstall!

You already have way too many adds littered all through the app, some almost completely indiscernable from the actual articles. There is literally NO REASON for you to be interrupting our scrolling with an add we MUST interact with in order to continue. I will close out the app EVERY TIME IT HAPPENS. I will NOT interact with these adds, you WILL NOT make any money from it and **** you for trying. If it keeps up like this I'm just going to delete the app.

There's always one problem or another with this app. The most frequent problem is that my posted comments seem to not really get posted, as if I'm the only person on the planet who can see them. Being someone who uses & posts on Newsbreak almost every day for the past couple of years, I know that it's not working right when this happens. And out of all the emails I've sent to the app developers about it, guess how many replies I've gotten....yup that's right, zero.

I had this app for a few years, now the ads are just outrageous. I know you have to make money, but ads are popping up like crazy and I now have to exit the app and reopen by then I've lost the article I was reading. The you titles for article and pictures or photos that don't even. at h the title of the article. Just deleted the app, thanks but I'm done.
