WHAT THEY COMPLAIN ABOUT · SHARE OF BAD REVIEWS
Too many ads33%

16 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Over the last few days I've been getting annoying auto play full screen timed video ads take over my screen for every article I ready.
★★★★★ The UI is not appealing and remains buggy, as adverts compete for exposure and the screen regularly tries to update itself to update new push ads.
★★★★★ They now run advertisements and subscriptions in this app.
Worse after an update27%

13 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Since the last update, closing a news article shoots the home page back up to the featured/newest article, requiring a reader to scroll back down to where they were last opening articles.
★★★★★ Despite latest update it Keeps freezing my phone
★★★★★ The app and content itself is great, but please develop an update that allows dark mode.
Bugs, things not working14%

7 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ External links only open in the in-app browser which is broken.
★★★★★ But over the last month about 70% of the stories bring up a grey screen and an error when you tap.
★★★★★ The UI is not appealing and remains buggy, as adverts compete for exposure and the screen regularly tries to update itself to update new push ads.
Crashes and freezes12%

6 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Despite latest update it Keeps freezing my phone
★★★★★ Since the latest update the app keeps on freezing, definitely need to relook at who you get to do your app.
★★★★★ Unfortunately since your first update app doesn't open only shows a grey screen.
Price and subscription12%

6 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ I renewed my subscription and paid but some reason every time I opened the App, it told me to subscribe.
★★★★★ There's zero news unless you pay a subscription.
★★★★★ Seems just about every news report one has to subscribe to now Not worth it!!!
Slow, laggy, battery8%

4 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ App keeps running in the background killing battery , With background app refresh turned off .
★★★★★ As a South African living abroad, I have long relied on News24 to keep me abreast of news “at home” With the recent updates, it has become slow, difficult to swipe to the next story, full of ads and generally unusable…
★★★★★ Extremely slow to load and scroll.
Login and account problems6%

3 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

WHAT THEY ASK FOR
  • We all understand that free apps need advertising to survive. 1★, Aug 8, 2020
WORDS THAT KEEP COMING UP IN BAD REVIEWS

Nothing stands out.

WHAT THEY LOVE · SHARE OF GOOD REVIEWS

Not enough good reviews in English to tell.

Found by matching words and phrases in the reviews, not read by a person. A review can count toward more than one theme.

What users say

Latest reviews, Germany App Store.

★★★★★Apr 21, 2026
Inaccurate Reporting

Many of the articles are anti US.

★★★★★Feb 3, 2026
Dreadful

I renewed my subscription and paid but some reason every time I opened the App, it told me to subscribe. When I clicked subscribe it told me I was already subscribed. The support was completely useless. I have abandoned all attempts to try and resolve this.

★★★★★Nov 20, 2025
Latest “feature” is irritating

Since the last update, closing a news article shoots the home page back up to the featured/newest article, requiring a reader to scroll back down to where they were last opening articles.

★★★★★Sep 8, 2024
Stick to the browser

Terrible app. External links only open in the in-app browser which is broken. Often I cannot exit an article once I’ve opened it. You cannot open YouTube links at all.

★★★★★Jul 1, 2024
Too expensive

I’m deleting this app. There’s zero news unless you pay a subscription. The same news can be viewed for free on either the apps: IOl, EWN, SABC, etc.

★★★★★Dec 20, 2023
Format and integrity issue with News 24

The app has become a donkey
