This app is now just as crappy as everyone else. Just downloaded the update and low and behold it takes more clicks to get to other news galleries. I could care less about watching live tv if the app takes almost a minute to open (every other app is instant on my devices). They really need to think about the casual user who just wants to read news articles and still watches their news on a traditional tv.

I like this app, except for the fact that whenever I share a news story from the app to a friend, that person can't access the article unless they also download the app. This is unacceptable. The articles should be sent via url not applink. Please correct this in a future update.

Only company I know that presses their app, incredibly aggressively, on you when someone sends you an article link. The link is through the app, itself, rather than a regular URL. And, even if you download the app, links never go to the article you've been sent.
