1 ★ I just knocked it down from 5 to 1. If there was a 0 or -1, I'd go for that. The app that worked perfectly for years is now glitchy. It crashes every 10 seconds. It locks up my phone. The ads take up half the screen so you can't actually read the article. I switched over to their website, but the mobile site is worse for adverts and the classic site takes forever to load and I don't recommend it for anyone who is seizure prone. I'm serious. I want the app back to working please!!!!!!!

1 ★ Love DM, read it multiple times a day. However, after my phone installed a system update, (idk if this was the cause or not), I cannot read an article without being redirected to the app store where multiple app download pages are flashed onto the screen repeatedly, and when I try to leave it keeps redirecting me back to app store from DM. This app has become useless and possibly dangerous, which is sad

1 ★ Simply unbearable. Constant barrage of ads covering content on my mobile. It does not matter how many times you click on the x on the top right of an ad and then on, 'Stop seeing this ad', they keep coming back. Over and over and over and over again. Does ex-ing out an ad count as a paid click to Google, I wonder? Won't be using this anymore. Disgraceful.

3 ★ Terrible writing (I have a degree in journalism. They should hire me.), and the ads are numerous and annoying, but it helps me to keep up with what's going on. Update: I can't tolerate the new larger ads that take up half the screen, making the articles even more unreadable than before. I will be uninstalling and looking for a better news app.

1 ★ The app is junk now. It "must" have access to contacts and phone logs to function. Even then it freezes up, I loved using this app, but it really doesn't need to have access to every single permission in my phone. The ads are getting more intrusive. Just bring back the old version that we could use for more than 30 seconds without it freezing.

2 ★ Not really a news site, but it used to be fun to just go to the comments and flame people. The writing is terrible, with plenty of confusing headlines and poorly written articles. The worst part are the ads which are obnoxious and overwhelming. I understand a company needs to make money with ads, but some of them pop-up full screen and you can't back-out or use your phone for about 10 seconds, which doesn't seem a lot until it happens every 3 minutes. Overall, not worth the frustration of ads.

1 ★ Too many glitches too many ads. It's very annoying when you are going through pictures and every other image is a pop up ad, some even full on commercials. The commercial ones play with sound even if you have the audio on your phone down. Comments: If you read or like to comment, sometimes you will be directed to another screen advertising another app. It's weird, glitchy, and difficult to get out of. One has to hit the X before getting out of the screen only to be redirected to the page again.

1 ★ Update 6/23: Still sucks, crashes every few seconds. Almost unusable. Update 2/23: Still sucks. Crashes every ten seconds and you have to reload the page. Downgrading to 1 star. New annoyance with a previously functional app. It crashes every few minutes. In the middle of reading an article, app window closes. To reopen it I have to see an ad, then it puts me back at the top of the page and I have to scroll down to find the article again, only for the process to repeat.

1 ★ I've used the app for several years, and loved it. The ads have become more frequent and overwhelming at times. You open a story an ad plays, there is another ad at the bottom and frequently the top then you have the ones playing in the middle and then ones that play over the entire story on a timer, so you have to wait before you can X it out.... Now or freezes constantly. I'm lucky if I can even v scroll down to see what stories there are before it stops working

1 ★ I used to love this app. It was my go to for news but these ads are RIDICULOUS. I am okay with ads. I understand the need for them. But you can't get through one article on here without triggering at least 5 ads just while you're trying to finish that one article. And it's the ads that you gave to waiy several seconds before being able to close them. It's beyond frustrating.

1 ★ For years I have gone to the Daily Mail for news. Like others have mentioned there's something seriously wrong with this app. Everytime I open up the app I'm able to maybe read about 2 or 3 minutes and then if I go to one of the Mail's featured photos, my Android crashes or the screen turns black. What's worse, it's hard to get my phone to unfreeze. Sadly, I had to uninstall this app. Please fix this problem!

1 ★ The app crashes constantly. The ads at the top of the screen appear to be the culprit. They try to load, leave a blank banner and tie up the application with whatever drivel they are trying to sell which crashes the entire application. Surely, there is a middle ground between ads (does anyone read ads? I certainly don't) and reading the news?

3 ★ I've had this app for a while. For the last couple of days the app has been going in and out. It starts to blink really fast and switch through pages. 1/2/2021 I'm officially going to sign out of this app. I can't get through one article before it being interrupted by at least three(3), 3 ads. I understand advertising but this is over kill. Ridiculous!! At least three(3) ads!

1 ★ App taking over the phone. The app randomly redirects to the play store, jumping from app to app. In between I can see some kind of upload screen for a second, but not long enough to grab a screenshot. It's not easy to get back to the article and even after leaving the Daily Mail app, the phone still jumps back to the play store and flips through more apps. Think I'll delete the app. It's too sketchy.

1 ★ I have been using this app for years. I check it throughout each day. When they added ads between the stories (when swiping between them), I got used to it. But, blocking half the screen with ads is making the news articles too hard to read. And if you turn your phone, it blocks the whole middle of the screen making it impossible to read the news. So, I'm here on Google play looking for a new app for news.
