    Spoilers Galore

    God forbid I google two things about f1, this app literally constantly spoils race after race and movie and show after moving and show. It's like there is literally no filter over what notifications are allowed to be sent. So now i have to disable having the entire concept of news notify my of anything from my phone because google can't just allow you to not spoil things.....there is no setting to turn that off. This app is trash and old.

    Far left ad filled crash-app

    I don’t mind left, right and center articles, but this app pushes the far left agenda. Go figure. 90% of the news stories require a subscription to each and every different news outlet. With all of the trackers on top of that, I’m deleting this app. Garbage.

  • ★★★★qwerty-97

    Least reliable app on iPhone

    If you like being disappointed on a daily basis, this is the app for you. Clearly very little Google investment going on here otherwise the “There was an error displaying this content” problem would have been fixed years ago. Great at organizing all the world’s information; not so great at showing it.

    Useless!

    This used to be my "go to" news source. Now, almost every item of news has a paywall, and you have to go somewhere else to get even the basic facts. Also, there is more sports stories than anything else, and you can't filter out this worthless junk.

  • ★★★★EvoKing5

    A Very Google Product

    I spent more time closing ads in the news stories than actually reading them.

  • ★★★★★No 2nd. chance

    Very limited

    The world news section is an embarrassment. Maybe 10 articles at most, that’s it. Other sections may have twice as much, but as far as world news goes, it’s a joke. This is Google, not a myopic high school news paper

  • ★★★★★Rabinnh

    So many pop-ups that it’s not even worth using

    Between the paywalls on about 50 percent of the articles, and the multiple pop-ups that you keep closing, but keep popping back up again that prevents you from reading the articles it’s not even worth using.

  • ★★★★GoogleNewsSucks

    Crashes

    You get 1/3 of the way through an article, and it crashes. Almost every time. Do better!

  • ★★★★★Asani V.

    Can we have Gemini?

    Can we finally have Gemini button like YouTube does? So we can summarize article without leaving the app, or share the url to other ai application

    My sports teams
