Annoying Autoplay of Videos
This USED to be my go-to local news app. However this latest update has made me ready to uninstall it. I enjoy reading the articles and sometimes will click an interesting video, however now if there is a video available it plays automatically when you click on the article! And theres no way to stop it.
I was at the library and clicked on an article and the video started playing and I got several snarky looks from people. I dont mind watching an ad before a video I WANT to watch, but dont FORCE me to watch one just to read a story. You already have banner ads. Quit trying to pay for the Olympic coverage by making your loyal news buffs watch ads for videos that they do not even want to watch.
If this doesnt change there are PLENTY of other news apps for New York out there. It wont hurt me to delete this one.
