It's the best news app by far but it knows what you search on Google & target ads you for stuff you'd rather it didn't like if you search for medication for an ailments it will start throwing ads for that at you which is personal & you don't want anyone to see. It still does it even if you turn it all off in the settings & on the phone app settings. I even signed out of Opera to stop it & it continued anyway. Messaged the app developers about it a few weeks ago but no reply

This is a really great news app, but can be even greater if a sync feature was added so I do not loose my saved news articles. Thanks for the response. The app is great overall, but sometimes ago I saved important news articles offline to read later on my older phone, but it got spoilt... Other than this issue I'd rate the app 5 stars.

Not bad an app to bring topic together. still lacks certain bits and customer support don't seem to be around or answering anything. Other than good for a challenge to Flipboard. updated to reply: I have shared this via the app and that's my point nil response. This is why I gave it only 3 ⭐
