Until recently (the laste few weeks) this app was prima, 5 stars, but now it does not work with the app switcher. Every time I press the app switcher to go to a different open app, NOS shuts down, and I have to restart from the home screen. The same thing happens when I try to translate a word using Google Translate. I have uninstalled & reinstalled and rebooted several times. I would like my 5 star app back. 19 Nov: Gerepareerd! Bedankt.

Mediocre app. Fair and efficient design, legible, easily navigable. Does what it needs to, but won't be good for long. Just about every update removes options for customizability. Also, the news widget features sooooooo much sports news, despite my choosing the non-sports widget. The widget also doesn't update now and then and lacks a 'jump to top' or 'refresh' button. Could be so much better. I'd love a widget you can completely cater to your own desires.

Updates makes things worse, no way to turn off any sports news, that stupid "tiktok" format videos that are forced vertically and zoomed in way too much... (Give us the option to watch those in landscape mode, like videos are supposed to). Luckily no weird bugs, good app performance and the news is somewhat good, but the things said above make it not a great experience... Edit: spelling

The app is responsive, dark mode, and it's easy to disable the so many notifications. After configuration it does give me descent news. It would be better if it had some more filter options to exclude for example the videoposts, and flashback/old news articles. It got some widget options, but none that are useful for me, would be easy to add a some more, for example traffic info widget.

No ads, just the news. The app is great, but recently changed so that you can no longer pick your favourite categories. To get there you need to click 6 times instead of what used to be 1 click. I also can't find the rankng for sports anymore and the traffic information seems to have disappeared as well. The weather is still there but also hard to find. The introduction of some kind of algorithm is very current but it makes the app worse since the app used to give unfiltered news

I use this app to keep myself up-to-date with Dutch news, while living overseas. It's easy to navigate, shows which news items I have read, I can select many categories of interest, and news gets updated often. News items can be shared and saved. I miss the daily photo items with a brief explanation, though. With the latest update, the focus is on videos, which can be slow to upload. But still, why ditch the arty photos?
