Wife & I had this App since its launch & we're both removing it today. This news app stopped allowing readers to send/share its news stories with others. So if you enjoy sharing news with friends/family this apps not for you! Many of the news stories aren't shown now because NBC has a paid version it pushes on you for those. NBC bends for Trump so much we changed News apps. This is not the news center it was just 2yrs ago. I went back to the Guardian who are not afraid to report facts.

There is no way to turn off notifications for news articles that are for NBC's paid subscription service. I do not have a subscription nor want one yet I get notifications for stories I am unable to read due to a lack of subscription. Fix this or I'll just uninstall it altogether.

not as annoying with ads, doesn't run videos btw paragraphs (like Time), doesn't cut off reading to insist you pay a subscription to continue (like CNN). generally much btr reading experience.
