Google News & Weather App Reviews

This app used to be my favorite, but now it crashes/freezes my phone up every time I open it. Every. Single. Time. All my apps and iOS are up to date. Please fix it!

This used to be a great app. Now it crashes constantly. I can’t read more than 15 minutes or so without having to force quit this app. Even force quitting freezes my phone for several seconds. Using latest iOS.

Application now causes iPhone 7 to freeze when opening or updating. Embarrassed for Google, having this app on the market. Been using this app for years. May have to uninstall and move on.

This *was* a solid app, but the frequent crashes started in Jan/Feb2018. Today it crashes nearly every time I open it. To avoid crashes, I need to fully kill the app (clear it out of memory), toggle to another app first, and then re-open Google News from scratch.

Google News used to be my go-to app; however, about two releases ago it began to crash repeatedly, and now causes my phone to lock up almost every time I launch it. Google News is the ONLY app on my phone that does this, so it’s not an issue with my phone...it’s the app. Deleting this app and will come back to try again in a month or two; hopefully, the issue will be fixed by then.

Keeps crashing my iPhone

I hate the new design. I to scroll down and see local news along with headlines. Also, it was so great having the local weather at the top. Now I never know the weather. I’m switching to apple news...

Every time I open this particular application, my entire iPhone slows down and freezes for several seconds.

Within the last few releases the app has started to lock up while reading articles. Even trying to kill the app causes iOS to hang for a few seconds. Otherwise still a nice news aggregator

Terrible, buggy, frustrating app. Constantly hangs on launch sometimes freezing iPhone X (iOS 11). I had hoped Google would fix the problem but it does not appear that the company is interested in making their app run properly on a competitor’s devices.

Has been freezing my iPhone 8 Plus. Still using the app, but am getting tired of killing the app, waiting for my phone to recover, then re-opening the app. Problem is about a month old to this point, I see that I’m not alone in experiencing this glitch, so what the hell Google - is this a ploy of some kind?

Every article is absolutely riddled with advertisements. They are so distracting you can not even read the article. Trust me, do not even bother downloading this app.

It keeps linking to websites that wont open.

i used to have no problem with this app. now all i have is problems! so long!

It freezes both my iPhone 7 and x. Was 5 star, now the app is very frustrating. Hope they fix it.

I have used this app for ages on my iphone 5s but recently it’s been suuuuper sloooooww. And it hangs all the time, I have to kill the app and restart. I know I have an older phone, but what happened?

It freezes my phone every time I open the app or refreshData

This app is riddled with issues. As of March 2018 it freezes my entire iPhone 7. Also, sometimes an article will not load after clicking it, and other times it will freeze when I leave an article and return to the main news screen.

Constant freezes and crashes

For the past week every time I try to open this app it freezes, sometimes causing my whole iPhone to freeze up and I end up needing to reset it. I loved this app so please fix it ASAP. Otherwise I will be deleting it.
