The old one was much much better. Simple and easy to read NEWS. This one is all about "graphics and design". Oh and besides, the fact that this is an English language content provider, I'm appalled at the grammar of some of the articles, most of the time. So unprofessional.

The older app was so much better. Why is there a mix of random news I have to sift through? Earlier I could customise the sections they appeared in. I have to stumble through the to get the highlights I want. Pretty interface but tougher to use.

Previous version was 100 times better. This is too slow. Graphics of this version are useless.
