It's a good app but the video playback going black as soon as I try and move through the video with the seek bar is a problem. I have to let a video play without trying to move to a different place in the video if I do it goes black screen with only audio playing. I've cleared cache, wiped the data. Still have the issue.

New look less user friendly, the bar at the top let you easily jump to news categories, now it's just one endless news page which forces news on you. BBC news made a similar change a while back, which is why I switched to sky news. Lazy design and basically following the crowd. Are the any app developers these days that consider the user? Or do what's easiest within new development framework.

This used to be about the best source of news I'd found for impartiality, but the quality of the reports seems to have been steadily declining. On top of this, the ridiculous amount of AI generated adverts and 'click bait' articles calls in to question the ethics of the app - especially after they ran an article about two of the Sky news team being deep faked. Time for me to find an alternative.
