Customer Reviews
An awesome app
I used to use this app every morning to get a quick review of what is going on in the world. however, as I am reading a piece of news, the whole page gets renewed and starts at the top again and it takes me a while to find where I was. This is so annoying that I am stopping to read from this app.
Why charge
For basic features? Normally ads would be plenty to pay for the needs of the service. It's not like fluent needs a news team, they just copy news feeds.
App doesn't look so great graphically. I'll keep it buried for notifications. They could do a LOT better

Fluent News was my favorite news app for over a year. I enjoyed checking it several times a day especially when work keeps me busy or I'm traveling. But over the past few months, trying to read news items ends in frustration and annoyance. The too-frequent refresh of news lists causes is extremely annoying. I want a fresh list when I open the app, but I really don't need one 90 seconds later. It's as bad as trying to read the Drudge Report online and the screen refreshes and places you at the top. I know it should only be a minor annoyance, but I honestly don't want to put up with it anymore. Fluent News is getting deleted today and I'm in the market for something else. Good luck to the developers. I emailed you last month and I'm sure you're working to make it as good as it once was again.
