I do like this app, but now, when you click to read,there is a great big ad in the way & a tiny bit at the top to get to the article you want to read. This is so annoying. You expect ads in games as that is how they make money, but when it's a news article it becomes infuriating. No more upday for me, I'm afraid. I will look for something else that doesn't force ads on me.

Seeing other reviews and developer's response to them. I might have agreed to download Samsung update, but that is mainly for possible security leaks, software failure, battery health. Not for apps to be installed in a sly and sleazy way where you can't even uninstall. Edit: correction of an autocorrect

Cookie settings keep popping up between every click, sometimes even after 'rejecting all' it pops up and asks me again right away. Answer is still no. Infuriating!
