[2011-06-14] Daniel: So poor, and no work has been done for a long time to improve it. |
|
[2011-06-13] Bill: As an expat Aussie in UK this ap could be so good. But it takes so so long to load even with WiFi. Maybe ABC should look at how the BBC news ap works |
|
[2011-06-13] Kitten: Wow. Is this really what tax payers dollars are going towards? The iPhone apps are so good. What gives? |
|
[2011-06-12] Blanik: Does not scale up to full screen on a 10 inch tabl This application does not work correctly on an Acer A500 tablet. The app doesn`t scale to full screen. in landscape mode, the app completely mis-scales the image and only shows two articles with no content. Recommend updating the app, or doing a tablet specific version that works. |
|
[2011-06-08] A380: Very poor app. Would be good to see an offering similar to, dare I dream better than, what the iCult gets. |
|
[2011-06-06] Ruby: Disappointing really, looks like the ABC is biased towards Apple users with all the apps offered to them... against the ABC's non-biased stance! |
|
[2011-05-30] Matt: Where is the video and audio content that is on the iphone version? |
|
[2011-05-29] Shenton!: Boo! |
|
[2011-05-25] Jono: Available content needs to be brought up to the same level as the iPhone equivalent. Also needs polish - has pixellated and poorly-aligned UI controls |
|
[2011-05-25] Andy: I don't think the ABC could have put any less effort into this app. |
|
[2011-05-25] Andy: I don't think the ABC could have put any less effort into this app. |
|
[2011-05-23] Andrew: News and slort headlines are pretty much all this app has on offer. No access to iview streamed shows - very disapointing |
|
[2011-05-22] Henry: No where near iphone app version? I try iView it doesn't work well with Senior browser. If u r not make update to this maybe update iView. |
|
[2011-05-22] joey: PATHETIC... I really can't be bothered with ABC these days. Just don't have the time for this poor attempt of an app. |
|
[2011-05-20] Adrian: Way better than iphone version. Faster loading and can zoom |
|
[2011-05-17] Matt: Should be able to share an article via email |
|
[2011-05-17] Alf: This is exactly what I was after. Latest information in a simple format |
|
[2011-05-12] Zane: Why does it have to be so sub standard? |
|
[2011-05-11] Eduardo: This app is a joke compared to the iPhone version |
|
[2011-05-06] Aaron: Please spend a little time updating this app in line with the iPhone app. Its a bit of a joke at the moment. |
|
[2011-04-30] Paul: Drained my battery dry. Uninstalled it. |
|
[2011-04-26] MaceBacon: As a fan of the ABC, I'm very disappointed in this app, update it more please!!!! |
|
[2011-04-25] Nick: ABC must regard iOS users higher than Android users. |
|
[2011-04-25] neso: Please bring to ABC for iPhone level. |
|
[2011-04-23] Colin_090: Useless compared to what iphone users get |
|
[2011-04-12] Jules: Very poor UI. Can't see index of stores. Have to go through each story to get to a particular item. |
|
[2011-04-11] Jordan: Sub par considering other offerings from the abc |
|
[2011-04-11] tvahunter: Sadly lacking customization that an app of its kind should have; very basic. |
|
[2011-04-09] Graham.Shepherd: Stories out of date. Can't personalized in any way. Can't share. |
|
[2011-04-05] LizRa: Useless. Gives you a handful of stories. It's so bad I figure they are trying to discourage use so they don't have to maintain it. Mobile site is ok. |
|
[2011-04-03] Peter: tarted up iPhone app |
|
[2011-04-03] Simon: Ordinary, for the ABC who is supposed to be unbiased to commercial companirs, they might as well just run adds for apple with this poor android effort |
|
[2011-04-02] David: News won't update without restarting phone! Hoping that an all update will fix that. |
|
[2011-03-30] Slyyder: ABC Tech keep saying that an android version of the iphone app is on the way, wish they would hurry up as this is below ordinary |
|
[2011-03-24] Erin: Switched from the iPhone app which was great. This is a weak effort |
|
[2011-03-24] Gemma: Great! |
|
[2011-03-22] Rahul: Very disappointing that good iPhone app not replicated for Android by abc. Does not give timely news updates. |
|
[2011-03-11] Dr.: Pretty basic app, a mobile web page could do what this does. The app doesn't use the full screen on largest displays (e.g. Galaxy Tab) either. |
|
[2011-03-07] mitch: Limited. Can't email or share stories , agree that more work is required so its not the poor cousin app of iPhone |
|
[2011-03-02] netvegetable: This a very basic, limited app. It's just text and pics. You're actually better off just browsing to the abc website. |
|
[2011-02-28] Matthew: Very poor cousin to iPhone app Very disappointing, it appears our national broadcaster has chosen to neglect this platform for the time being. Mobile site is better, I wouldn't bother with this app until it improves. |
|
[2011-02-27] Dave: This app does less than the mobile site. I wonder if ABC could consider updating the android app before it spends any further resources on the iphone? |
|
[2011-02-26] Trix: No ads. :-) |
|
[2011-02-26] Zac: No menus |
|
[2011-02-24] mikehere: Slooooow |
|
[2011-02-24] Kinslor: The ABC android app is seriously lame. I don't understand why it has been created. You get a much better experience using your browser to access m.abc |
|
[2011-02-12] saranga: Waste of tax-payer money. Way behind other news organisations. |
|
[2011-02-09] Mark: I find it is easy to use a.d up date |
|
[2011-02-07] Peter: Ok, but tends to freeze every now and then. GUI could have more navigation options. If I wasn't in Australia I wouldn't use it. BBC news works better |
|
[2011-02-05] Michael J: Sucks! No where near iPhones version, please update it and add news 24 live streaming |
|
[2011-02-05] Ian: Simple and easy to use. Unfortunately unstable. |
|
[2011-02-04] pansapiens: ABC .. get your act together and stop being so iPhone-centric. This app needs an update badly. How about open sourcing it so SOMEONE will fix it ? |
|
[2011-02-03] Julian: doesn't even compare to iphone counterpart can you please update this to have at least SOME of the features found in the iphone version? this hasn't been updated since 2009 |
|
[2011-02-02] steelbytes: m.abc.net.au is better than this waste of space |
|
[2011-02-02] gizza: Crashes constantly on HTC desire |
|
[2011-02-02] Sean: I wish someone at ABC owned an android phone, then they'd realise how crap this app is |
|
[2011-01-29] Sean: awesome app |
|
[2011-01-25] Bleeter: Very basic news app. Would seem no video or audio. |
|
[2011-01-23] stephanie: It doesn't work as it force closes every time I try to open it. HTC aria. |
|
[2011-01-22] kerosene: Frequently fails to update so "top stories" gets stuck on old news from days ago. It needs a refresh button or something, or just needs fixing. |
|
[2011-01-20] clay: Dosn't update often enough |
|
[2011-01-19] Jim: Terribly frustrating performance. Promises more than it delivers. Too bad. |
|
[2011-01-15] Tim: Great application, keeps me up to date with the latest news. |
|
[2011-01-13] Richard: After months of mediocre performance, now it force closes on every startup. Obviously Aunty is a Apple shop. |
|
[2011-01-06] Adam: Not very comprehensive, no video and no real updates to the app for over a year, very disappointing... |
|
[2011-01-05] John: ABC content is good, but app is clunky. I find m.abc.net.au better, with easier access to the same (and more) content. |
|
[2011-01-03] Yarden: Just only tylored for constantly promoted Apple products. Badly designed and technicaly unreliable. Typical ABC totally over-governed. Crap App. |
|
[2011-01-01] Alan: The best news, unfortunately a clunky package, poor network connectivity. Needs some updates! |
|
[2011-01-01] unfunk: I get the feeling this app was only written so the ABC doesn't look like it only supports Apple products. An update is sorely needed. |
|
[2010-12-31] Trent: Worked yesterday, FC today. ? Bug in the date code perhaps? |
|
[2010-12-29] Tom: Press menu for a dozen news categories, great app! Could load faster |
|
[2010-12-28] Maurice: Top app, I can't understand some of the other reviews I think they can't be using it correctly |
|
[2010-12-24] LANNet: Doesnt offer enough categories (top stories & sport only) and not enough stories (3 per category). Useless |
|
[2010-12-21] geomet: Really quite bad |
|
[2010-12-19] Giulio: Great on HTC desire. Easy to use and simple news browser. |
|
[2010-12-19] Brett: The articles are great but the news in 90 seconds video content like on the iPhone abc app is what im want to see. |
|
[2010-12-18] wg: This app is junk and has never been updated. Come on ABC have some respect for non-iphone users |
|
[2010-12-12] machunter46: You can see many more than_3 articals. Press menu |
|
[2010-12-10] peter: Need more than 3 stories for news and sport there is more to smart phones than the iphone catch up abc |
|
[2010-12-07] Jeremy: This was one of my favourite apps on iPhone. Hopefully the updates will be coming soon :) |
|
[2010-12-06] Matt: Excellent. |
|
[2010-12-05] Clinton: God bless Aunty! |
|
[2010-12-04] john0: Missing some crucial features |
|
[2010-12-03] KC: No content sync, only links. No audio download. No video streaming. Poor execution compared to NPR, NYT, ABCs own iOS app. |
|
[2010-12-01] Ian: I'll say it too. Might as well goto the website as the iPhone app is so much more advanced than this offering. |
|
[2010-11-30] Phill: Decent port of mobile website content. Needs iView, news ticker widget and podcast integration. |
|
[2010-11-26] Glenn: Pathetic. Why can't the ABC provide something at least as good as the iPhone app? this sucks. |
|
[2010-11-26] Revi: Might as well just use a bookmark to m.abc.net.au |
|
[2010-11-25] John: Nice enough, but no streaming audio or video a very big let-down. When can android users expect these features? |
|
[2010-11-24] Andrew: No real functionality. Just displays what the top 3 are and links away. Needs media content and streaming. |
|
[2010-11-19] Jon: Is this all it does? Android a second class citizen? Cmon ABC open source? Public Broadcaster? Seemed obvious to me. |
|
[2010-11-16] James: Good but needs media. |
|
[2010-11-12] Jez: Looks ok on my galaxy s. Just provides a basic interface for the news site. No media or widget included. |
|
[2010-11-05] gfxmonk: Force close on launch |
|
[2010-11-04] ingikitty: Works perfect on my galaxy s. Beautiful, thanks. |
|
[2010-10-16] David: Its ok but no video what gives? The iphone app is way better come on guys give us android users the same experience we know you can do it cheers |
|
[2010-10-12] Lauren: Slow to load and force closes alot, lay out could be way better as well |
|
[2010-10-06] Bryan: Needs to offer Iview. Better to go to abc web site |
|
[2010-09-29] Alex Young: Can be slow to load. Navigation takes some thinking. Not bad but much to improve. Htc desire. |
|
[2010-09-26] Elias: Simple and fast. I use it everyday. |
