★★★★★ oyetunji oyewale · Jul 28, 2021

This app is rated five stars because of the accessibility improvements in the news app. I can decide to read with my physical keyboard or do my gesture navigation. Well done!

★★★★☆ Patrick Obeto · Aug 7, 2021

After reading a story, there's need for related links to be shown for one to see something similar or related

★★★★☆ Alabi Kayode · Jun 21, 2026

Please the application is not updating again. Requested for update, when press to update it will not work, and it doesn't load new news. Please check the application issue. Thanks. The application is not working again why?

★★★★★ Wesley Nwantu · Jun 22, 2021

This is my go-to site for local news on Nigeria and the world. There is some improvement in the last update but lacks option for font adjustments. I like the last update because of the option to adjust font size. Good job.

★☆☆☆☆ Enoch Adelakun · Nov 14, 2025

The app consumes a lot of data and also causes overheating and a general slow-down of my phone's performance after using it for some minutes. Please fix this issue because I have a high regard for Punch News. Thank you.

★☆☆☆☆ Taiwo Obisanya · Jun 21, 2026

I haven't been enjoying this app for the past few years. The news doesn't upload more news after 10 to 15 news. It has not loaded for the past 4 days now. They should work on the app

★☆☆☆☆ Andy Ingbian · Oct 20, 2025

It takes a long time to open news headlines. Sometimes the headlines don't open

★☆☆☆☆ Yetunde Ayaba liberty · Jun 28, 2025

Valhalla Valhalla Valhalla since July this App has developed frustrating problem. U can't unsaved even after installing and reinstall. So Punch maintenance are too weak to resolve since July. PATHETIC 😔
