Comments on Newsmax for Android

★★★★★ Margo Pyott · Jul 31, 2026
Newman is the only place I can receive DAILY news without hassles. Can I share stories on Newsmax?
★★★★★ DJ Harris · Oct 18, 2026
My absolute favorite news station! I watch it from the time I wake up until the time Greg Kelly goes off the air! I don't watch the Right Squad anymore because they incorrectly got rid of Chris Plante and I wish they would bring him back. If you only watch one program on the Network I would suggest Finery. If you're really into guns I would suggest Carl, but if you just want the news and no opinions watch the morning shows they are great with no spin.
★★★★★ David Mckissak · Aug 23, 2026
Free press should mean free news is still the truth. Lose the greed. One person can tell the daily news. You don't need an army
★☆☆☆☆ Sandra Murphy · Jul 1, 2026
Paying g for monthly subscription and cannot download live site. Very disappointing because I like evening shows. Now I think I will cancel
★☆☆☆☆ Tim Sanders · May 16, 2026
App constantly crashes and lately won't open at all. Emailing Newsmax is worthless as they won't respond. I'm canceling this subscription.
★☆☆☆☆ David Keaton · Jun 5, 2026
I love newsmax, but it's more than news it's crazy the amount of commercials that has how can anybody sit and watch that
