Comments on CityNews for Android

★★★★☆ Justine · Feb 25, 2024
Every tine I open the app, the message pops up that I need to update. I click on that, which brings me to the Google Play Store, I select open and only then I can use it. This happens every single time and it's annoying. I'm using a Google Pixel, with the latest Android OS. The app itself once I can use it, is good. Please fix this issue.
★★★★☆ Michael KH Tang · Mar 25, 2024
2024 Mar 25 - Rogers red, really? Preferred the green tones, looks like to landscape for tablets is fixed
★★★★★ Isy Mandelbaum · Mar 4, 2026
I installed it and it still doesn't work. I have tried numerous times and still it tells us to try again.
★☆☆☆☆ Ben S · Mar 2, 2024
GARBAGE APP DO NOT DOWNLOAD City News Vancouver App continues to force an update. It notes the Vancouver edition is no longer available, and an update is required from the Google Play Store. Once the App is updated it is no longer the Vancouver Edition of City News. The new updated App continues to CRASH, and it is not the Vancouver Edition. The edition that I want The old City News Vancouver App WAS working without any issues. What happened? The Updated App CRASHES and Rogers does NOTHING!
★☆☆☆☆ Doug McCann · Mar 5, 2026
Every time I try to open the app it says an update is needed. (started today). I have uninstalled and reinstalled twice. Need to fix your app!

You call yourself a news app, try keeping up to date with news. All you guys do is take a 3-day-old article and change the headline, and it's back at the top as a new article.
