Yahoo News Customer Insights

1. The buttom, and favorites tab combined would allow each user to customize news that is relevant to their life, and interests.I have every feed selected but I still don't see the same, more interesting content the Yahoo homepage shows, which I can no longer use, at least on my tablet, because after a few seconds an ad for the app comes up with no way to get rid of it.

2. I wish I could choose what news sources to view, so that I dont have to waste time passint over certain less relevant news sources, such as the Huffington Post.

3. It has the frustrating habit of sending a push notification with a really interesting headline, but when you open the alert, that news story is not shown.

4. It is very annoying trying to read this in landscape and reading it in portrait mode results in too much advertising overlaying the news stories.

5. Beyond these design issues, the news offering itself is reasonably comprehensive.This app will not turn into landscape mode on my Android phone or Android tablet.

6. But the other content is presented fine, and is usually pretty relevant to the type of news I want to see.

7. In contrast, Google News (which I'm not plugging here) has an always-visible back arrow to return to headlines.

8. The content problem remains.There are plenty of news sources within this app and it is updated.

9. Great Job!It has a variety of news sources, and the app is easy to use.

10. News feed works fine.

11. I like that there are few "opinion" articles and most of the articles come from credible news organizations.
