Q70%
by Q####:

The very first video worked fine. But have not been able to watch any more after that. Just get a spinning circle

Q70%
by Q####:

it keeps lagging? Needs fixing asap don't bother downloading even quality of video is crap

I70%
by I####:

Scrolls to ads automatically, making it irritating to use. Politics feed has been broken for months with no sign of fix.

L70%
by L####:

Videos are slow and dont work sometimes. Useless

V70%
by V####:

Too many opinion pieces and regurgitated articles from facebook.

Q70%
by Q####:

Love the app but would enjoy it more if there were some home screen widget's

Q70%

So weekends good, cool format

W70%
by W####:

Carnowa is very good

Q70%
by Q####:

When you press on the notifications rather than taking you straight to the article on the notification it just takes you onto the app and you have to fund the article yourself.

X70%
by X####:

Please don't start blurting out the rugby scores as soon as the game has finished!! You ruin it for anyone not able to watch live. This is why I left Stuff.co.nz. Leave breaking news for breaking news. Also notifications don't go directly to the article they're talking about when you click on them.

Q70%
by Q####:

I WANT to like it more, but it is hard. Videos never play. An article may interest me because of the photo, but when you open the article, the photo is over-zoomed and only a fraction is viewable. The ads are so big, it's hard to scroll through the stories. The overall layout is poor. When scrolling to the end of an article, it often returns to the list, before you can read it.

K70%
by K####:

Version 2.3, how could such a fundamental necessity as landscape orientation be overlooked? Makes this app unusable on tablet for me. Will stick with Stuff, although Newshub has better more relevant content, portrait mode only destroys it's usability for me.

G70%
by G####:

Videos lag and sometimes never play at all. I have fast Internet and an s6. Really annoying and makes me want to delete

R70%
by R####:

I don't see the point in having a Rio page and putting the same content in sport and news. Likewise showing the same content in world and politics. I want relevant stories under appropriate headings that are maximum 8 hours old. Proof reading wouldn't be a bad idea before submitting the story and headline. If the video is under 15 seconds auto repeat it so I don't have to replay through the advert. Don't show Duncan garner talking as a lead to any story I don't need his speed babbling lead in.

X70%
by X####:

This app works okay, but does there really have to be so many errors in the stories? I'm a writer, and I immediately notice if a word is spelt incorrectly, or if there are typos. It really looks unprofessional. I'm considering looking for a better news app.

F70%
by F####:

FIX APP - taping on news article does not take you to specific article but to the home page. Take a lesson from stuff.co.nz app, not worth download if *stuff* do better and reports before news hub

O70%
by O####:

This help me keep updated on the latest news, even though I don't really like the news.

Q70%
by Q####:

How do you stop the notifications? So annoying

Q70%
by Q####:

It's junk just videos

P70%
by P####:

Good app but it would be great if you were able to answer polls within the app.

pai

Q70%
by Q####:

Absolutely useless and a waste of space. Mind you since TV3 decided to rename their 6p.m.news as newshub and the axing of Campbell Live and its replacement program it's no surprise that their app is crap.

Q70%
by Q####:

On my Note 4 the text is only just readable but on my 9.7" Galaxy Tablet the text of the articles, other than headings, is so small as to be impossible to read without a magnifying glass. There appears no possible way to enlarge text for this, and pages can't be zoomed. This needs to be fixed now.

N70%
by N####:

Annoying notifications of articles I don't care about... FULL of ads... Was looking for an alternative to Stuff, so if you are doing the same this isn't the app for you

Q70%
by Q####:

Uninstalling the hub app. Getting sick of reading opinion slanted news.. ..I just want the news, not the opinion of someone that I don't know.

Q70%
by Q####:

I understand selling advertising, but i shouldn't be forced to watch an entire minute of adverts for an even shorter video. Sort the sales team out and look after your users more.

P70%
by P####:

About to uninstall as there is no option (that i can find) to turn off push notifications. Pretty arrogant..... still i guess that fits with Media Works philosophy these days.

O70%
by O####:

Quick and unfussy apart from vivid coloured distracting ads you have to keep scrolling out of sight and playing a video kills the app so it won't respond.

M70%
by M####:

There's no visible settings menu, no way to configure weather, update intervals, or what notifications are produced. Not good.

I70%
by I####:

Clicking on the notifications I receive fails to take me to the corresponding article. The article is often not even on the app at that time.

Q70%
by Q####:

There is no content when I click into any of the stories. Uninstalling

Q70%
by Q####:

Good news source and app works quite smoothly. Too many notifications for non important news such as sports.

Q70%
by Q####:

Installed 3 times uninstalled 3 timeswill not work make that 4 times really is a lot of fun I do not f&$#@ing

E70%
by E####:

Too many ads just hit the face...

Q70%
by Q####:

Would be better if it supported Chromecast

Q70%
by Q####:

Notifications don't go straight to the story they are for

Q70%
by Q####:

App can't be moved to external SD card. Why not?

Y70%
by Y####:

Love tv3 you guys are awsome!!

L70%
by L####:

When I click on a notification for a news story, newshub opens but goes to a different story. Worthless so uninstalling.

Q70%
by Q####:

But video hardly ever plays.Really annoying as decent news sites in New Zealand are hard to find.Better than Stuff (but that's not difficult) and better layout than many.
