Great app and use it daily. Only issue is that after a day and half will do a FC. Don't think it's clearing old news and eventually slows and crashes.

Widget stops updating. The widget font is way too small to read. Needs option to add your own feeds and import google reader feeds.

Just the way I wanted my news coverage it's quick fast and I can examine the news that I want to read immediately on a widget. I don't have to touch anything any gives you the news that you want to read. this is a 5 star 4 sure! a must have app if you want the news quickly and what you want!

I love the look and functionality of this app, but its memory usage sometimes spikes. It's rare, and could be attributed to a number of factors.
