Something happened with some update in Dec 2024 that has killed this app. It usually crashes when starting, and when it doesn't, it won't usually let me check in or read to earn ro maintain my streaks until I've force stopped, restarted my phone, and cleared the cache repeatey for 20 minutes. These streaks should be availabale on Edge or PC also, for when the Start app does this.

Doesn't work properly. It gives a option to "read on the app". I try this, it loads to play store to install the app (I have it installed) it then errors out and won't let me read. I don't know what Microsoft has done but this is broken AF.

No way to manage sources or topics. The dedicated news tab has disappeared. Latest update does not prevent videos from automatic start. Tile list is huge waste of screen space that cuts off news headlines. Too much horizontal scrolling to virw headlines. Better off just using a web browser. Just bookmark you news feed web page using Edge (Chrome wont work when try to read articles).
