⚝⚝ EXTERNAL SD CARD NOTE ⚝⚝
Version 4.0 of this application adds support for using the Android Storage Framework, which provides support to write to the External SD card. In Android 4.4 Google changed the security for external SD cards, and this application, like many others were no longer able to write to the external SD card. In Android 4.4 you cannot use SAF to download multiple items. In Android 5.0 you can. For single downloads, you can write to the external SD card in both Android 4.4 and 5.0+. If you have never had an issue downloading, then you don't need to worry about enabling this feature. SAF is off by default, but is enabled in the Download section in the Preferences.

Used it for a week now and seems to do the job quite well - using the paid version and happy with it. Only things missing are: ability to see download limit left; and adding new favourite groups by clicking a group name in a search result

I tried thinking of one positive thing thing to say about this app and I fell short, much like this app did. There's absolutely no benefit to using this over an android web browser. None. In fact it's quicker using Chrome. Clearly there's a reason for the 3.7 avg star rating. It indicates that the app is half-baked. Considering the app hasn't been updated in months, it's safe to assume the dev isn't capable of fixing this bug prone app.

I've been using Easynews for about 12 years and this app is a natural extension to a great service. People complaining about having to sign up for service, it tells you that first thing in the description...Awesome job!

Thank you for adding the old API. This app works exceptionally well on my Samsung Epic. It is head-and-shoulders above using the web interface on a mobile device.

Everything work great before the update. Now it force closes all the time stops downloads in the middle, or just says error can't download right away. Why push a new update out there that is clearly not ready and has way to many bugs in it.

And yes, you can search other than just music, pictures and videos... There is an advanced search in the menu, and I use that pretty much all the time.

Less features than ez Usenet. Force closes a lot too.

Not sure why there is such a big difference between the searches on here and the searches on the easynews website. I get 0 files found on here and 350 on the website search.
