No longer works on Android TV. Used to be fine, but the launch of the new site also broke the Android TV app. Edit: 2023 and it still doesn't work at all on Android TV and the mobile app will not even load news stories when it bounces over to their sister site at Techwire. The entire app is dated and cluttered and needs a major overhaul. 2024: new update. new problems. now it doesn't load top stories. Get a new dev team or new decision makers.

I am an everyday user of the app. This morning the news wouldn't load and I needed to do the update. I tried rwice. It wouldn't load. So finally I uninstalled and reinstalled the app. Again it told me I needed the update. Again it wouldn't load. What's next? Update after a couple of hours: I am getting push notifications (which I am not interested in) for stories that won't open and the app still doesn't open.

Thanks for your feedback - this is invaluable for helping us to provide a quick fix. How is it looking after our fix yesterday?

The app is great other than the TechWire articles. Not sure why the type of article could make any difference at all, but those articles are almost unreadable because anytime I try to scroll down to continue reading, the app scrolls left or right to the next article. It doesn't make sense why it would only be those articles, but in my experience, that's the case, or else I would think it's my phone. Update: being fixed, thanks! Otherwise, the current location in weather isn't working right now.

Chris - we've had a few other issues with Techwire that are related, so we found a larger-scale solution that will address them all. The downside is this will take longer to implement, but the upside is that it will provide a much longer-lasting stability. Thank you for your patience and patronage!
