CNN: Live & Breaking News App Comments & Reviews

CNN: Live & Breaking News Positive Reviews

I seldom give 5 star reviewsIn today’s overly crowded app atmosphere it's rare to find an app that hits all the right buttons. I had Apple News for a while and it was way too busy akin to streaming services like Pluto TV. Too much information and ads to be enjoyable. CNN is nicely laid out, easy to read and still gives ample coverage of a range of topics. One can argue political agenda back and forth but I appreciate the app and its simplicity. It’s relaxing to read and doesn’t try to cram 5lbs of stuff into a 1lb bag. By the Goldilocks principle “it’s just right”. Please keep it that way 😊 As to charging for the app, understandably people who receive CNN in TV packages should be able to use the app for free. I do not have that situation so I am glad to pay to have it on my Apple TV as a standalone. However I think it only fair to point out, that unlike the past, news organizations are experiencing dwindling returns as people leave places like cable to go to streaming. With the streaming market looking to cut corners, places like HBO are spinning off certain cable channels (like CNN) to cut their costs. The future of services that people have used for years to watch news are going to have to find revenue from other sources. Peacock (Comcast) has followed suit. All these undercurrents, that many are unaware of, are changing a system that people have depended on for years. It’s easy to blame it on greedy corporations but when you finger point, make sure you are pointing in the right direction..Version: 25.24

Truth about our governmentI can’t rely on Fox News because they are so far from reality they sound like a bunch of sideshow acts broadcasting purely to make us laugh. Every time I listen to them I think to myself what planet are they living on because they don’t deal with reality. CNN is reliable with their process of carving out the truth with their great line up of reporters like Anderson Cooper and Dana Banks. Reporting from Jake Tapper and so many new and dependable people that dig to get to the bottom of what’s going on in the world. What they report is scary especially right now with all the craziness going on in our government and nuts like Cruz, Trump and Hawley and the rest lie to the American people. I fear for the good people in our country. I fear the far right because they are working to take our democracy away. Biden doesn’t have the guts to tell the far right they aren’t doing what is needed for our country. I worry about Covid and how it has held the progress of our society from moving forward. CNN is the only news outlet I can listen to and know they are telling us how it is. I only wish they could tell us how to keep our country from going off the tracks when immoral people are trying to bury us with their lies and working 24/7 to fill their pockets after good people have fought hard shedding their blood to give us democracy. I want to keep it. So CNN how can we keep our country from being stolen by the filth in our government? Time is running out what can we do CNN?.Version: 6.18.2

ImprovedIn 2016 I thought you were all clueless about the problems that trump posed. I think you are learning. Keep it up. And come down hard on the republicans until they become a party with propitious ideas again. When Biden stumbles give him a gentle kick. But remember we are now fighting to save the country and form of government that our founding fathers created. A strong hint would be to show the differences in how women and men think differently. The men gave us the war 1812, the civil war, destruction of Native American ideals without showing their outstanding answers about how to live in harmony. We need more specials on the horror of slavery, we need to remember that European Americans did not all come here as honest brilliant scholars, and point out Lin_Manuels brilliant musical and how many more Hispanics will bring brilliant prose, music, sports skills, literature and innumerable other talents that will send us moving forward again. Then there is science and how far along we have come in a year. When the scientists answer our questions have you noticed the notable number who answer our questions about the virus and vaccines with their foreign accents? I am an average American here who reads constantly to find the answers we all need. And for those of you who do not know, climate change, crispr and other more difficult problems are here now. How about giving them a mention. Finally why would people elect a president who tells his base to dump their masks and in doing so kills his supporters. Thank-you for reading my never ending verbiage. I think in paragraphs, not sentences. My last (really) thought centers around Ronald Reagan. He did help the people in Granada as he destroyed unions and expanded the gaps between the different segments of our country. Unless we can all grow none of us will. Thank-you. Kathryn.Version: 6.18.1

OpinionSince President Trump has taken office CNN and other news sources have undermined everything he has tried to do. When past presidents have attempted the same things CNN posted favorable coverage. Has anyone thought about the country that our president represents and what he could accomplish if he had some support. An example of this: in the past leaders of North Korea have made all kinds of threats and violence to the US and other countries and when that occurred our presidents always tried to pacify them with talk and many times giving in to their demands or at least partially. None of that worked period. So now we have a new president with new ideas, one that was elected to run the country. And what happens does he get support, no just the opposite. Federal judges wanting to show off stop him cold , news media publish their BS polls that I think they get out of their butts. When he attempts to stop or scare Kim when Kim threatens us with nukes he reminds him that we also have nukes , but then what happens while Kim is shaking with the thought of losing his position in life: a bunch of elected officials and again the news media all quickly announce that president Trump doesn’t have the power to make a first strike or use our nuclear weapons. Wow way to go I’m sure Kim in North Korea was able to breathe normal again with that bit of good news. Wake up America if president Trump loses the country loses. United we stand and divided we fall. Old news, yes but we better wake up or we might just wake up to a whole new world, one that we may not like..Version: 5.8.1

Improvement neededCNN has some timely, serious reporting, But also a lot of inconsequential fluff. Limited real estate is often dedicated to multiple stories covering insignificant aspects of some event, often no more than a simple celebrity snafu. If something mildly weird happened somewhere in the world, it is sure to find his way to this app. And, while I am no Trump fan, I get the feeling that I am inside my own echo chamber while reading CNN, because as much as I appreciate reading Articles detailing our president’s incompetence, I suspect he and his administration must occasionally do something right – – but you would never know by reading CNN. The most annoying aspect of CNN is its use of videos. A video on CNN is no more than a vehicle for presenting the customer with an advertisement they would rather not see. Accordingly, CNN uses videos where a written report would do just as well, if not better. CNN also attaches videos to stories, leading you to believe the video somehow relates to the story in a material way, when in fact the video has only the most tangential relationship to the subject of the article. At other times, the video simply does not play! Often, what appears to be the opening scene or frame of the video, Which entices you to actually watch the video, disappears when you open the video and discover that the scene or frame that caused you to open it cannot be found within the video, which is often completely unrelated. All that said, some of CNN is content is timely and good. I just wish CNN were a more reliable source of substantive news and did not resort to click bait and similar chicanery to get you to watch advertisements you would rather not see..Version: 24.7.2

Stand up for Democracy, CNN!Don’t give up on democracy please CNN! You started out so informative and insightful in your Jan 6th committee coverage. The analysis was impressive. You even had a time slot devoted to democracy. That disappeared and now you just seem to be trying to prop up the Republican Party. They created the mess they are in, and you are trying to rescue them while they continue to try to suppress voting rights. This is how democracy dies. Thanks CNN. Moving on to the topic of national security — your clip of Anderson Cooper’s interview with Maggie Haberman left out some of the the most astounding information she provided. The fact that the former guy routinely tried to take top secret documents up to the private residence in the WH and bristled when Kelly (his first chief of staff) tried to stop him. I wonder how successful his next 3 chiefs of staff were at this task or if they even tried to stop him. I gave you 3 stars for the fact that, on occasion, you do point out Republican politician lies. So many lies. The country of George “I cannot tell a lie” Washington and Honest Abe has become a country where lying is big business, and the go-to strategy for getting Republicans elected whether they are Trump candidates or not..Version: 7.7

Too Hard On BidenI think you are too hard on Biden. I view myself as an independent and in these last 5 years, I have seen such craziness in our country that I am not sure that we have a Democratic or Republican party in place anymore. I used to be Republican but how can I say that now when so many Republicans are totally inappropriate and borderline criminal. Our last President did so little to help this country in a pandemic. Thousands died due to his administration decisions or indecisiveness. Sure you spoke against this as you should have, but now we have someone, a current President, that is a least trying. He may not be the most eloquent speech maker but he does not insult me nor verbally attack anyone like the terrible, inflammatory rhetoric that we have heard in the last 4 years and continue to hear everyday. Maybe your expectations are higher than mine. Maybe you expect so much more from a career politician than you ever did from a corrupt businessman who constantly told us “he alone can fix it”. Maybe you expect the person going into the White House after 4 years of lies being told to us since day 1 of his administration, remember the crowd size numbers and using alternative facts, to 600,000 people dying from a pandemic which was supposed to be gone in March of 2020…..maybe your expectation of someone turning this whole mess around is just too unrealistic. Have we ever had the President of United States having to deal with a former president pretending that he is still president and people even in Congress and probably in the Senate too supporting that every single day in so many different ways. That is just one example of how crazy it must be for Biden along with all the other things that he is having to deal with. I give him credit for acting like a President, can you do the same. Can you do accurate reporting without ripping the man apart. It might help to mend this country, instead of picking on the poor guy who is at least trying. Thank you.Version: 6.18.2

Disappointed in New Version of CNN App!I am so displeased with this latest version of the CNN App! The developers have totally stripped away the control and flexibility the user once had. I used to be able to Go Live, click on Schedule and select a show to watch which had previously aired that day. I LOVED that feature and now it’s gone! If for example I missed the airing of The Situation Room which airs at 2:00 pm PST here in Cali, no worries. I knew that I could watch the full show, in its entirety anytime later that same day. I could click to watch any show that had already aired by Judy clicking on it. Now I can no longer watch a show that I missed...How could the developers remove this important feature?! This app is now just a ho-hum app. It is boring and does not offer anything meaningful to the user. I used to watch CNN faithfully on the older app version because it meant so much to me. In my opinion it was the BEST news app out there. Now there is no reason for me to use it. Truly disappointing!.Version: 5.8.1

CNN wants me to review their mobile app..,Sure - but first have your web site managers and technicians set up a long long overdue feature that allows readers and viewers to message department heads, authors, TV segment directors, and most importantly CNN reporters AND ANCHORS by simply clicking on a button. Just a click to access a feedback channel WOUKD BE INVALUABLE. CNN has lots of fans like me who would like to provide feedback in order to MAKE CNN BETTER! There have been many times in the past that I’ve wanted to compliment, encourage, or critique something I’ve read or seen on CNN - but have been unable to do so. Please stop making your organization so difficult to contact. Instead focus on becoming accessible and transparent. Also, you might consider adding a feature similar to the NYT Digital Edition Comments Section. It’s a wonderful add on to an already great publication. Having something similar would enhance CNN overall and allow the company, as well as other viewers, to place their fingers on the pulse of the readership and the nation..Version: 6.18.3

CNN ruined their own app with malfunctioning linking related storiesI used to love this app. I would use it multiple times a day to get my news, and have done so for years. Several months ago, CNN added links to articles within the selected article. It sounds like a great idea and something that would help readers get easy and convenient access to more information. The problem is that CNN used malfunctioning link technology that continuously reroutes the reader to different articles without the reader selecting to do so. It’s become so horrendous that scrolling to read any article is now impossible. There are so many links and the sensitivity is so remarkably light, that just trying to scroll through an article results in being redirected dozens of times. Come on, CNN. You should have access to better technology and capable programmers. You’ve ruined your app and have effectively redirected me to a different app for my news..Version: 6.5

Love lost over linksThe CNN app is the first thing I look at every morning to get quickly caught up. CNN, more than most, tries to keep bias at bay and make it obvious when what you’re reading is opinion. But for a while now the links in articles have been a problem. It’s not that the links aren’t relevant, and real reporting benefits from being able to cite sources directly and share further information. The problem is the links open instantly at the slightest brush of a finger or thumb. Until fairly recently the links opened in the CNN app, be they to another CNN article or to an outside source. Now most links open up in my safari browser before I can even react. Not only does this literally take me to another app, it also is constantly opening up web pages that I know nothing about and have no idea if they’re secure or not. Even the links that open other CNN articles for some reason usually open that article twice in a row. Since I switched to OS 13 the problem has gotten even worse. I have links open when I’m simply too close to them but not even touching them! Often there so many links it’s nearly impossible to scroll through an article without touching one. It’s like trying to read a paper while someone is constantly shoving a different paper in front of you! I’ve reported this directly to CNN through the app, but I’m now taking my grievances public. PLEASE do something about this CNN! A quick scan through the reviews shows that I am by far the only person experiencing this! It doesn’t happen in other news apps so I know it can be fixed! Be all the app you can be! Earn the love back and let links be links instead of instant warps to another news dimension! Oh yeah, if you get around to the link thing it might be worth looking into the app freezing and crashing a little too often. Honestly a minor issue compared to the links though. So focus on that one and we’ll talk later..Version: 6.3.1

Feedback for better performanceThe app itself is done well. No bugs or glitches that I have come across. The two major complaints I have come from the articles themselves. Many stories are video only which I understand as it being a television network application. But not all of us have the ability to watch a video to get the news. It would be great if there was an actual article along with the video for those of us unable to view. I have found myself leave the app to go to another source to get the story due to not being able to watch the video. The second issue I have is with the “breaking news” alerts that pop up on my phone. I remember when breaking news was important information that needed to break into a regular broadcast to give viewers the information. The amount of breaking news is ridiculous as not everything is that important. Please get back to marking stories as breaking news when they are truly urgent/important and not every time an article gets posted..Version: 5.17

The need for news not constant speculationI have been watching the news the greater part of my 66 years. When Ted Turner created the first 24 hour news cycle I was excited. The news extended to the world. I believe it was the first time America turned away from ethnocentrism. Increasingly world news became America’s news. Now and since the gaudy showman, Donald Trump, came on the seen our news has become the worst type of soap opera. What is presented as news one day is completely forgotten the next. The hype meant to keep viewers entertained is ramped up as “ breaking news “. I do not want the news to entertain me. I want the news to give me the facts and then I will decide how important it is for me. I hate the emotion that is injected in our news stories. CNN do you want to be a leader again? Have one show that is just the facts. Cut back on the mushy, tear-jerking shows like Chris Coumo. You would not need to compete with Fox News if you were just here, what, when and a little bit of why..Version: 6.17.2

CNN App review.I think one of the screens popped up saying do you love the cnn app. I believe i accidentally bumped the no button trying to turn off the phone real quick, but you could put yes. I like my cnn, and then read the opposite other app. You get a balance. I never get angry at this. I feel like reading the app is critical in making you sharper in essay writing. For instance, if you were to write a persuasive essay and then write the opposite to persuade the opposite way. You got to have one to have the other. It’s skills. Nevertheless that’s only in politics, but there are a lot of other news stories also which aren’t political and they are well rounded like the science stories and different things too. So overall, I think it’s a nice app to catch up on news. If I listen too much to fox news i have to go to cnn, and then back around, get a balance of what everyone thinks. That’s what I think..Version: 7.10

An octogenarian grandma’s opinion:I am stunned and sad at Chris’s bad judgment and will miss him. His spirit and lively presentation made him one of my faves. Unfortunately the character flaws of both Chris and Andrew are deep and not repairable, because they apparently just don't know right from wrong. I commend cnn for courageously and quickly acting decisively re the tough issue. That gesture contributed to my faith in your organization. Cnn is the only news source for me, consistently keeping the truth up front. My faith in humanity is so low lately and my worry for the human condition so constant, i need frequent hits of cnn’s clear thorough examination of the important events and issues to help sustain me after a down day or week. And you have several excellent women and men who can sort out Chris’s share of current happenings. Im eager to see how you resolve the programming and staffing. Please never falter in your commitment to truth. We need that. —EW.Version: 6.18.1

CNN’s app is a disasterCNN was my go to for news. It would still be if it worked. I have been complaining about the app freezing to CNN but CNN Just doesn’t care. A month ago I thought it was just a little glitch but it has continued. I am unable to use CNN because it just freezes. I’ve tried turning off my computer, I’ve tried reinstalling CNN, but nothing, it just freezes. If CNN does not care if their app is working or not, which, apparently they don’t since I am not the only one complaining of the problems. It now just sits there on my computer taking up space. Why? Because I was hopeful that this problem would be fixed. Since CNN doesn’t care, I will use MSNBC instead. They are reliable and you can actually use their app AND it’s dependable. MSNBC Cares. When you open it, you can be assured you’ll get the news, unlike CNN that just doesn’t care..Version: 7.34

Superior LayoutThe CNN layout design is much superior to the design of the NBC News app design. A single scroll up or down is sufficient to find the articles you would be interested in. The CNN app also has the correct mix of video stories you can tap on to watch on your device. This app has minimum wasted space between articles, unlike the NBC app, which has too much wasted space between articles. The only fault I have with the CNN app is that, too often, the closed-caption feature seems to always be turned on by default. It should not be on automatically. My phone settings have closed captioning turned off for everything, but CNN ignores that, unfortunately. I’ve checked my phone settings often concerning this. Otherwise, CNN is my first go-to news app on my phone. It should be yours, also..Version: 6.17.2

Needs dark background optionIt It’s a well organized app. I would like to have the option to use a black background with white text. If that is an option, I’m not able to find it. ’s It’s a well organized app. I would like to have the option to use a black background with white text. If that is an option, I’m not able to find it. well organized app. I would like to have the option to use a black background with white text. If that is an option, I’m not able to find it. the news stories more often. Moss the old app as it had easier navigation. I also liked the black background/white text of the previous versions of this app. Was disappointed to discover this new update had switched it around. I hoped that maybe I could change this preference in settings but it's not an option :( please give the option of changing the background/text back to black bg and white text..Version: 6.18.3

Love CNN hate the AppI love cnn and it’s content. The app always freezes, crashes, has a hard time loading, will drop signal and send you to commercials in the middle of a program. Makes you watch adds over and over when trying to regain access to live streams even when it’s the app that is failing. Audio cuts out unexpectedly and randomly. They use to update Inside Politics or State of the Union over the weekend but for a few months now you can no longer access that content except when using an actual television set so the mobile app is limited by comparison. I’ve used this app for years and very often but it’s always been on the struggle bus regardless of “bug fixes” or updates, the core of whatever is wrong continually gets worst. Disappointed by the decline to say the least. I know I can’t be the only one dealing with these issues regularly. *And full transparency I am writing this after over 10 failed attempts and over 20 minutes of waisted time just trying to get the live stream to load.*.Version: 6.5

Great info, terrible app performance.I love the layout and accessibility of the app. It is regularly updated, shares multiple viewpoints, and covers a wide variety of stories. The app itself seriously needs some work though. Almost daily I will click on a headline, but it is a different article . The article I’m looking for will be under a headline for another article and so on. Sometimes you click on it and just nothing comes up. It’s very frustrating. The other thing is articles written that are in the “live updates” section. You will click on an article you are interested in, it will take you to the “live updates” section, but you have to scroll through several other stories to find the one you were interested in. If I'm pressed for time, I often just give up. Still the best news organization around. Keep up the good work in the news department and tell IT to get with it.. lol..Version: 7.20

Great app/ hyperlink issueIt’s a great app. It delivers all the news of the cable news channel in a digestible format. It delivers rapid updates and clearly defines opinion pieces from news. It typical has less than a 30 second delay from major news networks for breaking events if you have alerts on and the alerts aren’t so cumbersome or numerous that they impolitely beg for dismissing the app. There are ads. I don’t find them overbearing in the least, but should you want to watch a quick clip you should be prepared for them. They aren’t required when simply reading articles, however they do appear between them. The only deterrent I find is hyperlinks within articles. Touching any of them moves you to a new page or opens your browser. This is atypical of all other apps and a bit counterintuitive to the UI as reading requires scrolling. This has only happened for the past few months and will most likely be soon corrected..Version: 6.4

Great app, but advertising is annoyingI like the app a lot, the content is well organized, varied and deep. It’s my go-to news app. When it comes to video content, every story is usually preceded by an ad, which, in itself, is ok and understandable. However, if you watch several videos, you’ll probably have to see the same commercial you saw the first time every time. I find this very annoying. I would think they’d have a way of knowing you already saw the ad and either not show any ad or at least replace it with some other ad, to keep viewers from having a negative reaction. This was particularly irritating leading up to the midterm elections, when a particular candidate’s commercial played over and over. Even though he happened to be my preferred candidate, I had to watch the same commercial way too many times. In the end, I frequently avoid watching videos altogether because of this and stick to the written stories..Version: 5.21

“Thank You”CNN has been a beacon of informative truth for my husband, my family, and myself for these past 4 dark years of a very frightening and tumultuous administration. But it has not frightened us, it has been honest, and also, in this terrible past year of COVD, it has kept us informed of this very deadly virus, and the many ways in which we could stay safe, keep our family and friends safe, and help keep our community safe. It has opened our consciousness to climate change, and how we, all of mankind united, may succeed in giving our beautiful planet a much needed hand to restore what we have neglected to admit we have created. And last, but definitely not least, keeping us aware of something we have taken for granted for much too long... what a privilege and wonderful gift it is to live in a free democratic society. How my family and I, immigrants from many countries have found freedom, hope, a place we call home, and how we will always be grateful, and always be there to hold on to this amazing and beautiful experiment we call The United States of America, by using all of our voting privilege and rights to keep democracy safe for all Americans now and forever. Thank you for your very honest reporting. And please give all of your very talented anchors our personal thank you, for bringing us the news so humanely into our homes. Thank you for your in-depth human interest stories, for the so very serious, and for the ones that have entertained us, and have taken us all around the world when we have been unable to move from our homes. So again, thank you. I’m absolutely sure you have kept many of us sane for the past 5 years. EAG Miami Beach, FL.Version: 6.16.5

Updates and AlertsPros: Always promptly receive alerts/breaking news on my iPhone when news happens, Cons: I open the app and try to find the story relating to the alert and can't find the story anywhere. It would be good if your home page headlined the alert/breaking news. The stories featured on the app need updating. A "major break" in a crime case or the latest in a world event should be updated immediately. CNN cable station anchor can be talking about news in a given story and the app can take 2 days to update the story that's been there for several days. It's never truly current. Also, some stories just sit there for too long. Sometimes the photo and headline have nothing to do with story once opened. Once app is opened, .....the story headline often either doesn’t relate and/or the story has been there for a couple days - ie old “breaking news”. We really enjoy CNN live, and usually have at least one television tuned to CNN, your political coverage has been excellent. Would like to see the CNN app step it up!! Our current political climate needs current and quick updating. (Too many ads, agreed....but if the news stories were current and more compelling, the ads would be less of an issue). Thanks CNN - you do so much great reporting, don't let the app diminish your awesomeness !!!.Version: 6.5

I’m obsessedI like to consider myself rather independent, so to watch both sides and be unbiased, I downloaded both Fox News and CNN. I was absolutely dismayed at how horrifying the Fox News app was. Not only was it extremely biased and full of Fake News, but the app was so full of ads and pop-ups that I couldn’t get any news without being diverted to another site. My phone crashed 4 times before I finally deleted it. This made me nervous to open CNN, because I figured they were all the same, but boy was I pleased. There were no ads, the site was completely safe and easy to use, and they provided good-quality news. Yes, they are obviously a bit biased, however they were so accurate and provided only the best sources. I was shocked to see such good-quality journalism. And, that Anderson Cooper fellow is quite attractive. He alone made me a Democrat. Ah, if only he was straight!.Version: 6.10.1

5-Star App, riiiiggght .... UPDATE ... MUCH BETTERUPDATE: I can report that with IOS Version 13.2, and the CNN app Version 6.4, released today, the hyperlinks and scrolling issues that I previously complained about have seemingly been fully resolved. Not sure how they did it, but it seems like you have to press the link very deliberately (slightly longer duration?) to be taken now to the external links. The app seems to be functioning fully correctly now. I’m done. Like the 200 or so other folks who can’t read the article they want because simply scrolling launches multiple other articles and links, this app is a disaster with IOS 13+, and CNN seems to be ignoring the problem entirely. I suspect it’s because they get paid by the click, and launching 20 new pages while trying to read an article brings them in more money. Tired of waiting....deleted the CNN app....and signed up for an ad free USA Today for $2.99. Seems worth it to me..Version: 6.4

Love It but So SLOOOOOWThis is my favorite news app and I’ve had it for a long time. I like that it thoroughly covers all the categories of news. I only have one major complaint and a small complaint. The major one is that the pages take SO LONG to load. For a while I thought my phone must be the problem but a little research shows it actually is caused by all the ads on the pages. I mean it’s really slow. Isn’t there another way? It’s annoying. My smaller complaint is that once I watch a video, even after I come out of that video I continue to hear subsequent videos playing. I have to go back into the video (and remember how long that takes!) and actually pause the video and X out. But today even that didn’t work. I actually had to turn the volume all the way down on my phone. Still, CNN is the best news app. I do read others but I read ALL of this one first every day and just browse others..Version: 6.0

Eskinder JosephOverall good coverage of current affairs in the US but exhaustingly redundant. I found the news on international affairs to be very limited both in scope and substance. So much so that I found myself downloading other network apps (networks that I believe are not worth listening to) to get access to balanced news. Coverage on Africa appears to be condescendingly trivial and boring. Too much coverage is given to issues and non- issues related to D.J. Trump ; exactly serving the President’s deliberate manipulation of CNN to getting continuous attention. In general CNN can use its unique advantage it has over being the only real International news network better perhaps through overhauling itself in a major way. We are now living in a highly globalized world and no other mode of communication in the world can bring the world together as much as a network like CNN can. So much is happening in the world and so little is told about it..Version: 6.11.1

News HoundSince I was 12 years old, I always enjoyed staying informed and current. CNN has been my primary source of news this past year. I enjoy listening to the experts give their view of the various matters that present themselves each day. Thank you for giving us the minute to minute, blow by blow accounts of the nation and world events as they unfold. This past year of 2020 has been a tumultuous year politically, economically, and racially, including the worse pandemic in my lifetime. Thus, I have depended on CNN to keep me current on the topics at hand. I rely on the dogged reporting of the FACTS as they unfold in real time. Since this year has started off with the literal storming of the Capitol, it is apparent that we are in for Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride. So I plan to hang on tight and once again look to CNN for up to date occurrences..Version: 7.0.1

Pathetic download times and long commercialsThis App would be great if it was actually designed specially for iPads, instead of strictly for sponsorship profit. The many CNN video snippets generally take 10-15 seconds to download from the internet to the iPad (even with high speed WiFi), then you have to wait for a commercial to slowly completely open up, then you have to endure a boring 13 second commercial....all before you actually get to see the real video. Thus a 30-40 second waste of time to view a 15 second snippet. This App is not optimized for anything other than video viewer annoyance. If I didn’t like and respect CNN so much I would delete it out of frustration. I prefer Apple News as it is much quicker. Wake up CNN......you’re supposed to be the most trusted news network. I trust you should be able to do a better job of optimizing your video management..Version: 7.15

Thoughtful, fact-based and objectiveCNN has increasingly honed their team of journalists and commentators as well as specialist consultants like Sangai Gupta,MD. They are all very good interviewers that seek out guest speakers to bring to light and facts to timely stories about a wide range of subject matters. I look to CNN for presenting a team of reporters who in my opinion, tilt somewhat left of center which coincides w my views. More importantly they don’t tell me how to think (like the vile and opinionated stories from FOX). I like the humor and synergy that Don Lemon and Chris Cuomo have as they present the background of many controversial issues, that have become politicized unnecessarily by the current Administration. As such, it’s the balanced reporting and sharp insights that CNN brings to the fore that I appreciate. As such I find their stories to be thoughtful, fact-based and objective..Version: 6.17.1

Clarity Honesty AccuracyThanks for presenting the news of the day with the previously mentioned qualities as central in constructing the framework . I occasionally watch FOX NEWS to try to have a balanced perspective. It has become increasing more difficult because it feels like they are speaking another language. With CNN, the news is reliable and accurate. FOX channels consistently and frequently fail to mention significant events related to Mr. Trump and his republican cabinet, especially when the reports demonstrate the failure that is occurring in the administration and senate. I realize these are serious accusations but one needs to merely listen to lies that occur daily. Americans are dying every minute because there has no plan delineated. I’m sure our allies are alarmed, as the chaos continues. Thanks for presenting the news that we can trust. Elizabeth A Baumgartner APRN..Version: 6.11.1

Get the real news instantaneouslyIn this ever confusing life we are living in America and in the world it is nice to know we can have a trusted news source and that is CNN. Although Trump and the right wing followers of his dismiss real news as fake news thereby limiting themselves to rhetoric and false conspiracy theories of Trump and the right wing networks, Americans can stay informed with the incredible in depth reporting of Anderson Cooper, Wolf Blitzer, Jake Tapper, Chris Cuomo, Don Lemon, Erin Burnett, Brooke Baldwin, Brianna Keiler, Kate Bolduan & a superb cast of supporters reporters. D.Sajay Gupta keeps us informed of important issues relating to this coronavirus pandemic & without him we’d be lost. I can find these articles quickly, at my fingertips & stay informed. I can watch the news live on this app for a time. This app is very easy to use. It is the first thing I check when I wake up..Version: 6.12

Constant Loading & Freezing IssuesWhat is causing the increasingly long load times? With the nation -and world’s - scene so rapidly changing, it’s incomprehensible that a major news outlet would allow its app to take a ... full minute ... or two ... and sometimes even close to three(!), to fully load. That, coupled with the constant delay in navigation responsiveness and freezing, has made CNN’s the most frustrating app I use. Having followed primarily CNN’s coverage of the news for many years, imagine how high the level of frustration must be to prompt consideration of deleting this app altogether so as not to continue the waste of storage space or my valuable time. So, am about to download another update, which one hope’s will address these issues by correcting or, at the very least, significantly improving the app’s performance..Version: 5.18

Good Timing- News worthy and The Truth News!Thank U 4 keeping the Masses of America and the World 🌎 🌍 Informed! These R dangerous times, the reports of Racism, Police Brutality, Trump Pathological Lies to the USA and The world are unbiased and the Truth! Funny how liars call “The God Given Truth” Demonstrated by Facts, Trump Televised Quotes and speeches r “Fake News” The only Fake News is Trump!!!! Too bad uneducated people r SO SO blind to the truth! Ingrained hatred and systemic racism is alive and well! Trump has stimulated its ugly head in this country which has effected the World 🌎 🌍 !!! Thank U 🙏🏽 4 Keeping it Real! Love Lemon & Anderson and all your news staff! Sincerely Elizabeth Contreras de Sacramento CA LatinX Professor, Social Justice Advocate for over 43 years!!! PS. Trump is the Wizard from the Wizard of Oz! When “TOTO” the featured dog 🐕 in the story pulled back the curtain and found him manipulating LIES! The only difference is the wizard believed in personal strength! This dude is demonic thru his narcissistic tactics!! Idiot w a scary following! Doesnt believe in Science 🧪? Obviously, he was pushed thru the education system like our poor inter city kids who are impoverished by no fault of their own! Trumps vocabulary reaches about 5th grade! This idiot was born w a fake gold spoon in his mouth! Trump had the all the opportunities in the world even 6 bankruptcies! The Americans voted him in?? What does this say about our Nation! Very Unfortunate Circumstances!!.Version: 6.11.1

So Disappointed!What in the world is Chris Licht doing? The firing of Don Lemon is the last straw for me. I watch CNN EVERY DAY. It’s on all day in a spare room, but no more. When journalists who possess professionalism at a very difficult time with the divisions in our society and are FIRED and put in the same headline as Tucker Carlson, it makes me sick! If this firing is because of Nikki Hailey comments, which were blown out of proportion, how does this square with all you do talking about President Biden’s age in running again for President, what sense does all of this make? None. I’m sorry for Don, but really sad for a culture carried on by a person, Chris Licht, who thinks he knows how to run a news channel. It’s a shame that others are left to continue on a daily basis. I’m done with CNN and I hope you lose many followers for this terrible decision!.Version: 7.24

Login Problems and Article Selection Still a ProblemThe CNN app provides written news articles, short videos and live TV. It does this well but with two app-killing problems: (1) in order to watch live streams of CNN, one must login to a cable network over and over and over again. This increases the time it takes to get started and makes me use the app less. Complaints have gone unheeded with each update. (2) low-brow journalism heavily populated the articles and videos with such items as “Mother stays up all night after finding this in baby’s crib.” Its like the editors of buzzfeed and national enquirer choose every other article. This degrades the CNN brand and makes them less credible when their hosts decry the entertainment journalism of a certain other news network. All in all, I love being being able to watch CNN on my phone but these two problems greatly reduce my use and have led me to find other news apps..Version: 6.3.1

Donnie FeitI’m deeply saddened by what seems to be to me an enormous sacrifice and an immense amount of effort by everyone it seems. I wish that I could do more, I’m am so very proud of everyone’s efforts and the flexibility you all are exercising in order to m put things into a the best alignment feeble. This world is enormous and I can’t find the words t explain how wrestlin how hard it is to believe at times. The whole world in a sense is unified in commonality, we are doing an amazing job. Again I am very proud at everyone’s efforts and concerning certain parties there aren’t words I can use to explain how I feel about certain issues. I am so.. proud of you all. Thank you for this expression of the times. I couldn’t see any of this text btw.. I hope that it was clear enough of a message for everyone. Thanks again,.Version: 6.18.3

Covid 19It amazes me how CNN compares the US to Europe and Asia when it comes to Covid and rarely compares to that of Canada. We are your closest Neighbour and greatest trade partner and yet it’s as if we don’t exist. Can any of your reporters find us on a map? With that said I sincerely hope the border remains closed until you control your mess. Just sayin..Version: 6.12

CNN reviewI despise Trump and all that he stands for. I am Canadian, but unfortunately that does not make me or my country immune to his many mistakes. (ie: He caused the crash that killed all those innocent people in Iran last month, just to name one of the many mistakes. ) I liked CNN before, but since Trump was illegitimately elected... well, I love CNN now. Praying for a Democratic landslide in November. God bless America! ( & my sisters & their families who live there). You need it with him at the helm for sure.😳.Version: 6.6
