User Reviews for The Hill
Recently added obnoxious ads
I’ve been using this app for years and like the content but recently there have been obnoxious ads especially along the bottom. Like spinning slot machines and otherwise distracting garbage. I get an app like this has to pay the bills but it shouldn’t be at the cost of user attention. I’ll come back when this is fixed. I’m looking for somewhere else to get similar content for now.
Easy to Use, Informative
I don’t normally rate apps, but as someone learning about and focusing on current federal events, I find The Hill app to be a reliable news source, lacking in bias, while boasting an excellent interface and relatively unbiased writing. It’s really something when a news source can not only get you articles quickly, but also provide a thorough argument and all of the facts. Great job!
iPhone X needs update
I have an iPhone X. For whatever reason if you hold the phone in landscape mode and try and open a story none of the text for the story shows up. You have to open the story in portrait mode and then turn the phone and then you can read the story in landscape mode. Next, in landscape mode with the phone notch on the left, the text is sometimes cut off by the notch. I do love reading the hill. A lot of great reporting. Just annoyed that the app doesn’t work better.
Don’t Is Too Small
I use reading glasses but my eyes are not bad enough to need a prescription. Most apps I can read without my readers but this app pretty much mandates that I use them. Other news apps will allow me to zoom in on the words where The Hill won’t. The font is already very small and not allowing a person to physically zoom the font in any way turns me off completely. It can’t be that difficult to permit some type of zoom to allow us to make the font bigger. I had to give this app 2 stars because it’s so inconvenient to actually use. Very unfortunate that the developers won’t make an accommodation. I’ve asked before but they seem to just not care.
Great News Organization
The Hill as a news outlet is, most of the time, awesome. So much less biased than other options out there and a lot of fact based reporting which is what we all really need. The app itself isn’t the best out there. Don’t let that stop you from getting your news from the Hill. I don’t have as many issues with the app as others have but I do wish it had notifications.
The Hill made me a drug addict
I was looking for a reputable news source and came across The Hill. I had never used drugs before in my life. I started reading their articles and became confused. How could anyone be this stupid? They are full of it, why are people subscribing to this? So, I started off sniffing glue. This gave me temporary relief but as I’m sure you could imagine, the glue sniffing only did so much. I needed something stronger. I still was not able to understand why anyone reads this garbage. After glue sniffing I started sniffing paint cans, then drinking paint, smoking paint and now I’m a full blown meth addict. I have to pour meth into my eyes to reach the level of understanding that is needed to comprehend left wing lunacy. At the end of the day I wish I was aborted. Finally, something the Hill and I can agree on…aborting myself.If you are still reading this, good for you. This was probably more entertaining and informative than anything The Hill has or will ever post.
Works great, but needs notifications!
I like the app. A lot of the issues other reviews complain about have been fixed. The reporting is good, with (roughly) an equal amount of bias in either side. A BIG issue, though, is that it does not have breaking news notifications. This is a major downside. If it weren’t for this issue, this app would be one of my primary news sources. Honestly, it’s kind of worthless to me without breaking news updates. I strongly encourage the all developers: add notifications!!
New Update Not Good
This used to be my go-to app for news. Both the content and the user interface were fantastic! The March 2022 completely changed the look and feel. Most of the articles seem to be videos, which I don’t particularly care for, and even worse, often I can’t back out of a video without quitting the app and bringing it back up. I have no idea if the content is still good because it works so terribly I haven’t been using it much anymore. What happened to good informative articles that you could click on and READ?
Fine, but March 2022 update is a step back
The app has always been somewhat buggy, would crash somewhat often, but it was what it was - a good collection of news articles. The new update takes a step back and does away with chronological article sorting like the old version. Where before I would check the app throughout the day to see new articles, now I find myself going on it and staying on far less because I can’t go down a list of articles and get caught up to where I was. Not sure if the update improves on crashing. The new design is fine, not that I really care about that one way or the other on a news app. Overall, meh.
The Hill is good but the app is the worst
I just really want to listen to Rising on my commute but it freezes or crashes so often I can never get to the end or even a segment or two in. I don’t care if you put in a bunch of commercials on, I just want to put the show on and listen straight thru. It would also be nice if I could do other things on my phone while I listening. You could have a great app because of content, but the tech part distracts. I don’t bother so much trying any more.
