This looks like an interesting app, but there is no way to exit from it. Come on BBC, you can do better! 23rd March, 2015, this app still has the same problem. Very poor!

You claim to be the worldsnewsleader but this release shames you. I tried to open many things but i ended up with a hq pic of half a dozen eggs. I am a food technologist. I dont need this.

Sometimes videos will not play. "This content doesn't seem to be working. Please try again later." If you close the video and restart a few times, it will play. Also would like to see Chromecast capability for the videos. Interesting stories.

App recognised me as UK user (but I live in Viet Nam) and it wouldn't show me any content of it. Description on store is attractive but ... So sad about that bug
