The latest English update stops the app from loading properly any content in any area. Live TV has never worked. It I want to see the news, I have to switch languages to Deutsch, which runs an older and more functional version of DW. I used to love seeing a Eurocentric news source with good funding and views, but unfortunately I cannot utilize it successfully any longer.

There's an old adage that says, "If it isn't broken, don't fix it." This was an excellent app until the last two updates. Now it crashes frequently when accessing it, it's literally "jumpy", advancing to the next section or page as if by an unseen hand. It "freezes" for no apparent reason, and has to be rebooted. On one memorable occasion, I had to shut the phone down and restart it. This is a new phone, with only 10% of memory used. What was once an excellent app is now garbage.

Nov 24, 2022: per develp'r. instructions,uninstalled and reinstalled - not worth a hoot! Video still stops completley; loads of aggravating ads. Uninstalling. Loaded Update of Nov. 14 and no longer plays correctly - videos stop, frequent breaks in the sound; nothing but problems now. Very frustrating; will remove app. Sad to end this channel. Nov. 19, 2022 Excellent news reporting. Wish it had an onscreen volume control and go-dark option for listening only in the dark and to save battery life.
