Comments on Africa View for Android

★★★★★ Covers a wide range of countries and topics. Very informative.

★★☆☆☆ According to all laws of aviation, there is no way that a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee of course, flies anyway. Because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.

★★☆☆☆ Landing screen uglier than sin The landing page layout is dismal. Content OK, although I expected more customization i.r.o. regions that interest me. Uninstalling

★★☆☆☆ Clinton News Network Abroad?! Seems CNN is spreading like the cancer they are.

★★☆☆☆ No updates Were so excited finding this app. I could read even when offline. Until I realized they don't update the app. The info I found there over a week ago is still there. Nothing new even after refreshing over and over again.

★★☆☆☆ There was no view on your Africa View app. Do you mean there is no view in Africa?
