I've been waiting over a year now for bug fixes, but each update seems to make this app worse. The top story takes the longest to load. The main page is glitchy and fragmented, so that tapping on an article opens an entirely different article or an ad I definitely don't care about. There are other news apps I use, but I enjoy Huff Post for a slightly lighter take and entertainment based news. The way this app functions (read: doesn't) is too frustrating to continue.

Comments won't load. I've upgraded, uninstalled, reinstalled, logged out, logged in...and of course every time I do this, I lose my bookmarks. Also, weren't we paying for a subscription at one point and not able to log in via FB? Now the ONLY way I can log in is FB. If I could give zero stars I would. Used to be my favorite news app, but it's become the worse hands down.

The current layout is at least better than the previous, but I still have major issues with the videos in the app. 99% of the time I try to watch one it freezes before the ad even starts. The fact that every video requires watching an ad (that's usually a 1/4 as long as the video itself) is annoying enough. But I can't even do that!! I've said it before, PLEASE release a paid version that works better. I would gladly subscribe if only the quality was better!!

For the last 2 weeks this app has been increasingly freezing up more and more. All the other apps on my phone do not do this. It seems to freeze up even more around the time that it adds an alert when there is a major news story breaking. Speaking of, most of the breaking news stories are usually very uncon sequential and overrated. App has become useless. I've used it for the last five years, but I am getting rid of it. We'll have to get our news elsewhere.

Revised 2/10/2022. It stopped crashing finally. But now, when I type in the comment box, the box gets 4-5 times longer. It's as if I'd hit 'enter' 30 or 40 times. If I try to delete anything or make my any changes to my comments, my cursor goes to the bottom of the box. Over and over. It's maddening. I'll say it again; I've been using this app for several years now. I'm about to uninstall it. You folks took a good platform and turned it to absolute garbage.

Huff Post is a wonderful source of news. The app used to be fine. Recenly, it has become a problem on my Galaxy Note 4. It freezes up, then closes and I have open it again and scroll down to find the article I had been reading, hoping that it won't freeze again. I've uninstalled the app, then reinstalled it. It still freezes and turns off.
