Great content but I'm lowering my rating to one star because video hasn't worked for ages; I can only watch videos if I "share" the content with my browser and watch from there. Also, my phone's password manager can't distinguish between the Radio-Canada and CBC apps, making logins difficult. I contacted CBC about this and they basically told me to get lost. I found that unacceptable; they should have addressed the issue or at least explained it. The Radio-Canada app works flawlessly.

Chromecast no longer appears to be working since at least the most recent update. Usually use the YouTube channel for local news but a lot of times (Saskatchewan) doesn't get posted, especially on Fridays. Feel like I used to be able to cast to my tv in these cases from the app but now no longer working. Have cleared caches, uninstalled/reinstalled etc.

Very nice app. The news stories are not super long to read, very informative and lets me choose any region I want, alongside that, CBC Radio One is built into the app which is very cool and I can choose a region, read the news, and listen to CBC Radio One from any region in Canada. *Although, what would make it even better is if you could watch livestream of local news for your area on here* - All-in-one app. Quite amazing!
