Half the point of a news app is to be able to share the news. Doesn’t ABC want more people reading their articles? I genuinely don’t understand why this issue has gone on for this long. You can share the stories from the notification dropdown, but not when viewing the article itself, so this obviously isn’t a feature that was removed on purpose. Edit: The share button is back.

You do a good job ABC news. The only suggestion is that you could improve the layout of the news page, when I open a news, there’s the title, a video and then the text, but when I scroll down the page the video cover a part o the text before get out of the screen. Don’t let the the video tab cover the news when we scroll. Only suggestion.

Only news app I have found that doesn’t bomb you with ads, Temu ads to be exact. One tiny hulu ad on the main screen and nothing in the article itself. Also, I get to choose what sections that get push notified to my phone. Very nice news app.
