Great app for latest news updates. The interface needs some work though. Everytime I'm scrolling down or up to look at all the topics, it would just slide towards left or right mistakenly to the other categories. Then When I slide back to the latest news category I would have to start from the very top. It always annoys me and it does happen very often. I think that sliding feature is a bit to sensitive.

Great to receive timely news. User interface is very annoying however....I will be scrolling reading the news on the "latest" tab and the slightest movement to the left or right results in the app shifting to the "My feed" tab or "popular" tab....by the time I switch back to the "latest" tab it refreshes to the top and you have to scroll all the way down again to search for where you left off. This is very annoying.

Whenever I am reading stories the app scrolls back to the top of the page. This will happen every 10 seconds making it unusable . Also, is it intended for the app to be unresponsive when refreshing a page? I mean, when i the page is refreshing I can do nothing and the lighting on the page goes dim. Edit Months Later: The app is still horrible. It brings news and all, but it's extremely unstable. I get notifications that I'll spend some time reading and all of a sudden the app will just close.
