The new app is a backward step. It's difficult to navigate. The font sizing is way to small. You need to rethink the font scaling. I have used the Settings option to adjust the Font size, even on the Extra Large setting the font is too small.

Please please please roll back to the old user interface. This new one is terrible. The biggest issue is navigation. Under the previous version, navigation was simple, intuitive and easily customisable. This new interface is none of those things.

Love the new app. But it's very frustrating how often you get a notification for a breaking story but it's not on the app yet (even after restarting the app).

Annoying. Stuttery. Old version much better. When are you going to fix this app. Have you read the reviews they are terrible. Scrolling down endlessly to find afl or opinion makes no sense. Put the headings across the top.

The new version of this app is terrible, navigating articles is not intuitive at all. I find myself not even bothering anymore may aswell cancel my subscription.
