Who was in charge of the update..? All you now see is a picture that fills 60% of the screen with a few lines underneath. Then another massive picture. It's very unpleasant to use. Further. The adverts are getting bigger. Filling the entire height of my phone. I now just look at the top couple of articles then close the app.

Constantly telling me when I try to open the app that I have no Internet connection when in fact I do have 1 which works fine for any other app/website access. Reinstalling, cache clearing, or force stoping doesn't fix the issue and others are having the same problem. The strange thing is that when this happens, the live section will load and work but nothing else so no top stories, videos, ect. Does same thing on data. Your CANNED email suggestion reply was useless, tips don't work.

I like Skynews a lot, but experiencing a couple of issues: 1. On my Nvidia Shield box, I'm getting intermittent app lockups - while watching skynews live, I press the back button to commence exiting, then press it a second time ("home" button highlighted)... but it then gets stuck - I can move left <-> right through the menus, but cannot select anything, and can't exit - I have to do a force close to get out!
