I like my news. And CBC isn't perfect, vut at least it's not sensationalist crud like other news outlets are. I'm sticking with the app where journalistic integrity actually matters.

The app is constantly logging me out and demanding i relog in. Really not a fan of that aspect. Otherwise I like the CBC app.

The ads open up too easily when scrolling. I end up on an ad webpage without even clicking the ad intentionally. It happens far too often when trying to read the news article by lightly scrolling through. it's very annoying.

I know Canada is kind of a relaxed sleepy place, but on January 10, 2026, there is only one new article at 9am pst. The other two "new" articles are rehashes already issued. How much public money does the CBC get for this? I want a CBC and want Canadian news, but this is a complete joke pulled on every Canadian... but then... the next day a massive scoop... a grandfather clears snow from driveways of those who can't. Whoo! National bloody news!!! congrats CBC. YOU'RE FLUFF.
