★★★★★
Installed BBC News again after a number of years without. Pleasantly surprised how much it has improved. The dark/black mode makes a great difference for me too, it looks great. Back up to 5 stars.
★★★★★
Well researched and interesting article on Captain Cook shells
★★★★★
BBC is always brilliant, no matter which BBC app I use. The news is in depth, and they check to see if the information is correct.
★★☆☆☆
The news reporting is of the quality we all know and expect. The app is horrible, the interface has been given a refresh which loses all the functionality of the old version. It's no longer possible to find articles via their category. So I went back to the old version, which now constantly prompts me to upgrade, saying it is no longer supported. If you ignore that, the app still works fine, so the BBC have chosen to change some setting to try to force people to the new version.
★★☆☆☆
So now we can't use a previous version because BBC is preventing it getting latest news. App deleted! Come on BBC. Why aren't you listening to the feedback from app users? It's time you explained yourselves. --- previously --- I hate the new UI. I deleted the app, reinstalled an older version and switched off Google's auto-update. Hint: get an app called Apk Extractor and save apps when you like them, so you can do what I described above. You'll need a file manager app to do the reinstallation.
