RUINED AGAIN! I can't believe Microsoft replaced the news app with this junk. Dual screen on the Duo was great in News. It quickly became my favorite news app... Now we have this junk, not formatted for a dual screen at all. Thanks for ruining the experience Microsoft. It's unbelievable that you could mess up this bad. You tout the news app all over your promotions for the Duo... Did no one really think about making this work for that phone.

I like the idea of news from multiple news agencies, especially in our current political environment, you can't trust one article. News now is filled with opinions and a couple of chosen facts. I was hoping the variety of feeds would be one place to be more informed. However, I'v noticed microsoft is selective of which articles they are picking from the various news agencies. I don't want an app that tries to influence opinion one way or another, I want all stories and I'll form my own opinion

Slow laggy and messing up. I log into it and it won't count my searches, won't scan my receipts, won't count my mobile or laptop searches. News reads, anything to do with earning points or doing anything of that nature, it just limits it. Wouldn't load pages or stop entirely. Don't load this app, wifi or a good cellphone tower next to you won't fix the problem. It's the app, algorithm or techs that purposely slow it down.
