I was shocked at how bad this app is. They want you to create an account. No! Who wants this? You can’t hide stories or use keywords to filter them like Apple News. They have only the least granular topics to hide, and that doesn’t work well. It looks jumbled and messy, and it’s not obvious what is a tidbit and not clickable vs what opens another article. Very disorganized.
When you open the AP News app it will shut off whatever music or podcast you are listening to, the result is that I use the Reuters app instead. Same exact news but Reuters won’t shut off your music.
Not filled with clickbait,complete bias, or intentionally manipulating the reader. A breath of fresh air in this chaotic environment and break for my mind.
The AP used to be the best source for real news. Now they care more about Harry and Megan than they do about the truth. See how many times they refer to the occupied nation of Tibet as “China’s Tibet region.”Next they’ll be saying it was annexed peacefully, no way China sent their military into the capitol twice and had political prisoners sign the annexation without any contact or consent from the government they were NOT representing. Sure, just keep buying China’s lies and manipulations. And now I have to keep seeing Nigel Farage’s clueless, brainless look of sheer stupidity every time I open the news, because these “journalists” are treating him like a respectable politician. Are you kidding me? Do you have zero access to ancient historical texts of 5-10 years ago? Seriously, just educate yourselves. It’s beyond embarrassing.
The job of the news media is to accurately report the news, not make the news to fit an agenda. You need to report on Trump as vehemently as you do Biden. Biden has made 18 appearances on two weeks and Trump none and yet you keep pounding the anti Biden age drum. Why? Do better.
I started following AP in 2016 after the election because I was frustrated with the bias at The NY Times. Since 2022, that same bias has emerged at the AP. I have left-leaning sympathies myself, but it is a cruel thing to distort the news and I cannot support anyone who does it, particularly if a national institution of trust is undermined in the process.
One of the very few reputable news outlets. That being said the app is very underwhelming. Notifications are a mess. You keep adding back in topics I don’t want notifications about. Appreciate the journalism since it’s nearly dead and people are dumber than dirt but the app isn’t great.
I downloaded this app after reading a review of it. I like the way I can adjust the fonts, and so far AP seems pretty fair in their reporting. I came looking for news apps after Yahoo destroyed theirs.
Too left leaning. Biden has suffered a mental decline throughout his presidency and outlets like AP have been hiding his cognitive decline until it was too evident in the debate to ignore.
AP reports on the major events and pits them on record using skilled reporters who ask questions and report on the answers. It is a good alternative Artificial Intelligence because it draws on the very real intelligence if its global staff. And nobody paid me to say that.
CNN started asking me to pay a dollar a month from my computer and I refused. The AP site provides excellent, non-biased, truthful news coverage, and doesn’t ask for a subscription!
The quality of this app is falling off a CLIFF. It now delivers push notifications for articles that are two sentences long and followed by more than twenty sketchy advertisements. In a time where journalism is under attack each and every day we need our journalists and editorialists to rise like never before. Right now though, the AP is cliff jumping.
I’ve started following individuals reporters within outlets to just try and discern ideological bias in reporting. I like to hear the facts and some balanced insights and make up my own mind. I’ve found AP to be most balanced so far. Reuters is also okay but lately has swing pretty hard to the left. I don’t want to have to do mental gymnastics separating reality from info spin doctoring so recommend this site, and appreciate it.
Real news that keeps us informed as to what is really happening in the world. Thank you and your hard-working reporters for your tenacity and diligence and to your dedication to the truth.
AP has adapted well to the digital age, unlike many former print newspapers. If you want the news quickly, without opinions, in an easy-to-scan format, this is your app.
Most news articles written from a strong leftist view of the world. Still good information can be found outside of social justice. Too woke for me to rate higher.
