User Reviews for Yahoo News: Breaking & Local
Got worse with last update!
Yahoo updated the app last week and now my I phone shows 75 notifications that used to disappear when you opened the app and read the stories! Fix this please! I don't need to be looking at this little red for all if the time showing 75 notifications when there aren't any there!
Former Microsoft News user, happy to switch
I previously used the Microsoft News app because it was a clean interface with minimal ads and allowed me to select which feeds I would like to view. Sadly they tried to make their app a one size fits all design and stuffed every bit of Bing functionality into the app. Yahoo News has a great clean design and is easy to use.
Can’t comment on false opinionated “news”
The content is something like 25% news and 75% opinion. You can’t comment on the articles which was the first red flag to me. Most stories clearly omit key facts to portray a false narrative so world and national events are related to the public in the manner they choose. Grossly liberal leaning and definitely a political tool. There should be laws to prohibit companies like this from claiming to be a news source when they release opinion based articles and false “reports” that intentionally omit facts. News should state all the facts not attempt to spin anything in any direction. Despite my political beliefs, I want a 100% unbiased and neutral platform free of any political motive to gain factual knowledge of events so I can form my own opinions. This app contributes to the single biggest problem in America today.
Won’t go to landscape anymore!!!
I don’t know what happened, what update did this, but all of a sudden when Newsroom opens it switches from landscape (which I keep my iPad locked in) to portrait and then that mucks everything up. Can’t see parts of the sty and have difficulty scrolling. And I’m still not a fan of Yahoo not just taking us to a browser - I preferred that. At least it seems like it consistently is taking us always to the app rather than half the time to a browser, half the time to the app. I’m not a fan though. The app opens up much more slowly than my browser did.

I Love Yahoo! I especially luv that you keep me up to date on all the latest Science news. In as much as I am a gluten for all types. I went to college to study Forensic Science but was bitten by the Sociology bug. Soci allow me to combine many favorite disciplines including Data Management, which I had work history in. Thanks Yahoo! For keeping me in the loop morning to night old friends.
Going downhill
This app used to have useful news. Now each article is choked with a summary section that is usually exactly the same as the first 3 paragraphs afterwards, an exact copy. Then there are only a couple more paragraphs before the article ends and does not contain the full article most of the time before auto- loading the next article. There are also many duplicate articles on the main feed. The feed is twice as long as it needs to be. It’s just too much work to try and dig through and get useful information from this app anymore.
What happened to yahoo?
Yahoo news has always been left leaning, that’s okay because even if people disagreed you could say so in the comments section, and sometimes there was overwhelming opposition from readers. But now, comments have been gone for a while and they just removed the voting system so you can’t even downvote their overly biased articles. Yahoo has zero interest in creating any conversations they just want you to pay their authors on the back and tell them you agree. Pathetic journaling, I’ll just use one of the other hundred news outlets that are exactly the same and censor their audience…
Negativity News
I personally feel that the entire News media including Yahoo has gone to feeding more and more negative news to the American public! There’s so much positive good news to report but not reported. The small percentage of negative things from all aspects of daily life are reported as if this is the way all Police officers are, its the way all airlines are, a particular car manufacturer has so unsafe cars, nothing in politics are done productivity ... I can go on and on. If your wandering I was a registered Democrat now switching parties. I’ll just go with what does get done, not sit with a party that obstructs and complains.
Terrible app
Not sure if it’s the algorithm but the app pushes a lot of clickbait and one-sided/biased articles. Not too many objective articles which is terrible for the current state of the world where people just want straight fact and reporting without the biased opinion of the writer. Not to mention, the comments section is a rotten cesspool of people who seem to be on the extremes, in echo chamber, and only there for confirmation bias. I probably had the app for 5+ years and I thought it was pretty neat. I thought it was more of just objective news back then and I was hoping it would get better but it just kept getting worse so finally deleting it.
Variety and less biased
Yahoo offers a much broader look at the news with many articles about human interests and not just political views about every aspect of life. Yahoo news is more enlightening and less anger. I like the news Yahoo offers. It is one of approximately 15 news feeds so I am able to see many viewpoints of what is happening in United States , from around the World.
