Poor news updating. The person responsible for news updating, is (really) honestly doing his government job :-P and also advertisements are the most annoying part of this app. Developers ruined the most trusted news app. People continuously complaining about unnecessary advertising, but still you didn't do anything.

W70%

I think you should post morning and evening news video or audio like AIR also,It will really help the audience in case if they missed watching news,and also they can watch imp news any time during the day.

DD News notification updates are months old! This is very irritating. The app except for this major technical flaw is quite good.

K70%
by K####:

The app crashes sometimes. But the news is news, not opinion of the writer. A simple necessary thing that other media houses are missing out. Thanks. Keep up the good work.

DD news app is decent .It gives us authentic news, I like DD news. But the con is ..I was expecting that, it would be a Add...free news... But so many add's appear along with news...it irritate me.

Y70%
by Y####:

Only complete news is given. I think it's a no.1 news channel for persons seeking any kind of news in any field. Its a good initiative taken by DD news to launch an app like this which is very helpful for persons who don't get enough time to read newspaper or to watch television on daily basis.

I like DD news. But there is no justification for annoying ads blocking news, particularly for public sector broadcaster. Please get rid of them or at least reduce them.

The app is quite nice and vastly improved for better audiovisual quality. Thanks for addition of audio listening option as suggested by me last year. Several new sections have been introduced in the app. Congratulations for vastly improved app. Provision of catch-up option for programs for 3 days can be considered.

Why does a govt owned channel need to have advertisements in its app? It should be made completely ad-free.

Too much annoying adds. Can we remove it or arrange in such a way so that it could be user friendly

K70%

The news app skips a lot of news.That is why Doordarshan inspite of its content lags behind private channels and international counterparts.
