Excellent source for objective, professional journalism and neutral coverage of world news. However, I've had continuing issues with the video player- it's tiny and doesn't have useful features like fullscreen mode, it will often keep playing audio after I close the app, and the video editing is often pretty bad, too.

Edit: They keep changing this back and forth, and I'm done. Allow us to turn this feature off and I might start using the app again. For now, I'm uninstalling. Seriously considering uninstalling this since the recent update made ads and videos play, with sound, every time I open the app. I can't find any way to turn this feature off, and you can't mute the videos - you have to turn off the sound on your phone altogether if you want to use the app without intrusive noise. Unusable this way.

Hi Katharine, Autoplaying videos with sound on should not be occurring. We are working to resolve this. If you have the time, please reach out to appsupport@apnews.com with details. We appreciate the feedback.

Had to knock a star off after the latest update. The user interface is inferior to the previous version. It's like an amalgamation of mobile app and desktop web-based versions, but doesn't rise to the ability of either. Worse, the app is prone to crashing, and I'm considering removing another star if that issue isn't resolved soon. 8/24/24: The issues haven't gotten any better, so I'm knocking this down to three stars.
