Comments on Australian Local & World News for Android

★★★★☆ Kim Sindorff · Jan 21, 2020
On the money and early reporting of breaking news, could be more balanced across all forums 👍
★★★★★ Johaunna Rondina · Oct 20, 2022
I love this app, it's easg to use! It keeps me updated, and I love how I can read a summary of the important bits of the news as I scroll on my feed. It saves time.
★★★★☆ barry zahurance · Feb 22, 2020
It was ok for a while, but now Avast says it's a virus. Had to remove it for now, and I hope it becomes a non-virus soon. Ok. Avast no longer complains! Added one star.
★★★★★ Lovely Jandi · May 18, 2020
Amazing. Loved it. Improved my english listening and speaking skills👍💕
★☆☆☆☆ Jason Dickson · Apr 27, 2016
Clunky Used to be a really good app. Now you can't read stories on it anymore. They load up then a second later it diverts to an add. Put it back to how it was as now it is useless and only worth uninstalling
★☆☆☆☆ Neil Clarke · Apr 17, 2016
10 crashes this week Samsung Smart Manager app is telling me to uninstall this because its crashed so many times this week and is making my phone run rough. EDIT:Trialing ad free fixed it and phone runs it MUCH better, barely makes the phone warm now, wish I had known this long ago. Will update score after you read this
★☆☆☆☆ Leigh Kirton · May 22, 2017
App auto updated now can't post comments, another classic Aus News stuff up
★☆☆☆☆ Jason King · Aug 30, 2016
Unmoderated Comments should be disabled unless they are moderated. Nothing but homophobic, racist diatribe from bush pigs and hogans.
★★☆☆☆ Charlotte Williams · Jul 19, 2016
Nope Not as great as I thought. Prefer my old Bigness Australia...
