Newsmax for Negative User Reviews
✓ Bye byeBob sellers just put the nail in the coffin for newsmax🤮.Version: 3.0.8
✓ Pretend newsIf you like to pretend trump won, then this is a great place to find pretend news to make you feel better as a person. Otherwise you will find this trash feed very hard to listen to. I use it to break my echo chamber of logic and reason. Just to see what the hell these fools are blabbering about..Version: 3.0.7
✓ What a Joke Newsmax PlusI have watched Newsmax from the beginning and mostly enjoyed it. I have watched and listened to the talk show hosts brag about how they’re growing and because I have enjoyed it so much, I introduced countless friends and family members to Newsmax broadcasting. Now Newsmax wants us to pay for the success that we helped bring it to. Old friend Newsmax has forgotten its roots. I was appalled at this move with no warning. one day I could watch Newsmax the next day I could not unless I paid a subscription, which I eventually did, but now I can’t get any type of Newsmax at all. I don’t know if I have to do with the poor planning of all this, I don’t know if it has to do with my Internet though I doubt it because the icon for Newsmax TV is there. I just can’t watch Newsmax. I’ve had trouble logging in and accessing it since I paid for it. So I am canceling my new subscription. After several years of watching Newsmax daily all the time I feel an amputation, but I’m not going to put up with this baloney where they are treating loyal viewers and supporters so poorly all of a sudden. Furthermore I will not encourage anyone anymore to watch Newsmax. All done..Version: 5.0.1
✓ App doesn’t work — even after logging into “Plus”.Newsmax recently became a paid service called Newsmax+. Unfortunately, this has not been a smooth roll out. The app does not go full screen (completely) on iPad, which doesn’t matter since the paid programming doesn’t come up when selected. Newsmax+ gives an error message saying the live programming isn’t included with your subscription, and customer service doesn’t respond (assuming they’re overwhelmed because some platform apps weren’t even available when they switched (Roku among them) and the new improved app is buggy and their server seems to have lookup issues. Good news is they offer a free trial, so if they don’t have their act together by the time it’s up you can cancel. Hope they can fix this as I enjoy their programming and they aren’t on our cable system..Version: 5.0.1
✓ EhhhAll I ever hear about is the virus, rarely any news from around the world. When I am watching on my phone and I receive an incoming phone call, I will reject it and then newsmax freezes. Theeeennnn, when I close the app to reply to a text message and re open the app, it is frozen. Aaalllsssooo, there is always at all times a pause button in the center of the screen blocking part of the view of the tv show. Can’t open your show in a little box so you can browse on your phone as well, you can only watch newsmax when your in the app, if that makes sense. The little pop up box that other streaming services such as fox has is not available here. Otherwise newsmax is where it’s at because they don’t make you pay for world news lol..Version: 3.3.4
✓ So sadIt is so sad to see many news stations and influential people spread lies to make money. ITS ALL A SCAM. THEY ARE TARGETING THE UNEDUCATED POPULATION. 56 percent of the us can’t read past a 6th grade level that’s sad and most of y’all are voters you need to truly educate yourself through university it’s really sad. i used to be like them since 2015 but once covid and i started getting university education it opened my eyes and both of these parties need to be scrapped and we need to fix the republic with a multiparty system that give people representation and the congress people reflect the population they serve. the senate needs to be power checked. they have been lying in our education system and we need to invest in that we need to end the public healthcare system for business in america and save it for small businesses we need to conserve americas values and stances cause they way we are headed with how they voting pop votes we down a dangerous path GET EDUCATED PEOPLE.Version: 3.5.0
✓ Real News vs Fake NewsNewsmax is generally pretty good at reporting real news. However when the government and its agencies and departments advance misleading information Newsmax needs to make the public aware of the situation. A particularly good set of examples are current: 1) the inflation number reported by the White House is wildly different from that facing the average American (inflation for me is north of 27%); 2) late last year to early this year the CDC admitted on its web site that the real number of deaths (now buried) due to Covid is only about 10% of that previously reported, citing the incentives in place to report Covid, treatment, ventilation, and death; 3) unemployment numbers reported by the Department of Labor. Unfortunately your reporters and show hosts report the deceptive numbers as if they validly represent reality and consequently help the government promote its propaganda!!! This is a disservice to the American people and Newsmax needs to correct its contribution to what turns out to be disinformation..Version: 3.3.6
✓ Financial modelI love your financial model. You’ve been able to optimize revenue while providing news. We, the viewers are thankful that we get the entire Newsmax lineup for free. So, there are no subscription costs to us. Having been employed in AM radio during my teenage years, I realize the delicate balance between economics-it is expensive to pay for facilities and talent and it is crucial that public service is maintained. With Newsmax, the best part is your willingness to cover virtually all news events. We live in a political world. Almost every media outlet has a news filter that is a direct reflection on the corporate leadership views. This is evidence of a system polarized by designing men who often obfuscate the truth in order to maintain their control. In summary, your Advertising-based business model provides thorough coverage while maintaining a reasonable selection of advertisers. I suspect that you moderate who is allowed to advertise. LETS KEEP AMERICA FREE ‼️🇺🇸.Version: 3.7.0
✓ Doesn’t loadI get a notification and when I click it, the app stalls.Version: 3.0.8
✓ Love you guys Hate these commercials!Now when I open the app I see 2 seconds of news before it throws me into these ads I have heard over and over and over and over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over over Again! Get my point? If I hear the singing loan or the mr pillow guy (God bless him) one more time or that Natures Balance ad, going to screem! I don’t like Fox but sometimes I can stand the short news reporting and switch over to another station. Please please please do something. At least stop throwing me into an ad the moment I open the app. 🙏🇺🇸.Version: 3.7.0
✓ Only way to know what’s going onI can’t even watch Canadian news anymore.Version: 3.3.6
✓ PaywallThey locked their live broadcast behind a paywall. Lost a viewer. I’ll find my news someplace else. You would think with all the ads they run.. they would be making enough money without the need to squeeze a little more from each viewer..Version: 5.0.1
✓ Out of step with realityI’m so glad I’m not American, and taken in by this brainwashed rubbish!.Version: 3.0.8
✓ What An Absolute CrockWatching from the UK. The way your news reported treated The Pillow Guy, was disgusting and walking off set like a baby throwing his toys out of the pram, was embarrassing. I’ve now deleted the app and will “Never” share an promote any article published by Newsmax. Good luck with your sinking viewer rating..Version: 3.0.8
✓ I’m disappointed ☹️…I’ve been watching Newsmax since 2018 before they became popular during Covid. I do not have a lot of money as a widow with 2 kids. Yea $5 bucks a month is cheap and I get it; you all have become so popular that you are upgrading your network and who views it. However, as an American loving patriot born and raised in the United States ❤️🇺🇸❤️ that I am proud of, a Jesus loving Christian woman ✝️🤍✝️, and with everything going on in the Holy Land of Israel 🇮🇱 💙🤍💙 as we Americans are Israel’s ONLY ALLIES…. I am cut of from the evening news and I love Greg Kelly and Rob Schmitt to name a few, and in order to watch them now I have to get (Newsmax+) and pay a monthly or annual fee!!!!😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤. It breaks my heart💔. I cannot afford it. You guys were reliable..Version: 5.0.1
✓ Newsmax appApp needs to be updated flaky.Version: 3.3.6
✓ You lost me.Your treatment of Mike Lindell had bought you an immediate cancellation. And we know about the donations to Hitlery Clinton. You are nothing but Faux News 2.0 and I am now not just cancelling you, but I’m deleting you completely from my life. KMA..Version: 3.0.8
✓ CensorshipCensoring Mike Lindell for talking about evidence regarding election fraud, just as bad as the left wing news sites..Version: 3.0.8
✓ More fake newsWhile it’s better than alternatives it’s falling pray to the traps of liars. Here is an example: Republicans “have said,” voter ID laws are needed to build public confidence in elections and to prevent voter fraud, which remains rare nationwide. Many Democrats “see” the mandates as attempts at voter suppression. Why not say republicans SEE voter id laws as needed , instead of they “SAY THEY SEE” are you saying that they are lying? That’s opinion then. Otherwise why not say democrats “SAY” they see the mandates as instead of democrats SEE. I actually think they are just saying that they don’t really see it that way. Also, why the urge to add “which remain rare nationwide” into the article. What are your sources of it been rare? and what difference does it make that it is rare? if the elections are decided by a few swing votes. Putting that in there is proposuful and aims to say which side is wrong. So, I give them 8 Pinocchios and I declare it Russian desinftomation because I dislike it.Version: 3.2.1
✓ Greed baby GreedI really appreciate what others have said to this horrible change!! My sentiments exactly. Why would you start charging for a tv station that a lot of times malfunctions? No audio!!!! ……for long periods of time. Why would you start charging a fee to watch a tv channel that you are trying to have others watch? It is doubtful that people who don’t watch will sign up if they have to pay now. Why would you charge for a tv station that after signing up for the new service completely freezes, goes blank (so you have to sign in again😞 and then does not accept your password! 😕 I agree with others this is a sellout. A sad time for USA. God Please save America Trying to watch Newsmax is getting better. Hallelujah!! I don’t have to sign in every time I watch. And I am not being kicked out every hour. Being able to get in with finding and getting the most truth is worth it. I will hang in with Newsmax. The other news outlets just don’t care about telling the truth….. and the whole story. Helps me know how to keep praying for America..Version: 5.0.4
✓ Love Newsmax, Hate the streaming appYou definitely launched this streaming service before it was ready! I never know when I turned the TV on and hit the app icon what I’m going to get! sometimes I get the message that the program is not available in my area! Sometimes I get a message that I need to login, although I’m already logged in! If I get into Newsmax + within five minutes,I am lucky! Sometimes I just cannot get in, no matter what I do! Each time is a new experience, but not a nice one!And as mentioned in other comments, the buffering wheel continues to spin through every program! Finally, once I am in the app, I cannot exit to my app menu in normal way! Frustrating! Please get this resolved ASAP! Thank you to my app menu th.Version: 5.0.4
✓ Baby foxThe more I watch the more I see foxes ex people on here let alone you sound just like them you’re pushing war we need a speaker no we don’t. We need a president ask for a speaker what you’re watching is called democracy and we’re tired of the elites, forcing someone who just want to keep one putting up resolution, CRs and omnibus bills I Newt Gingrich if anybody should shut his mouth and stop talking after the last few statement she made it would be him because when he made a contract with America, he sounds nothing like that guy and he better remember the elite went after him after he got a balance budget through foot clinic work with us but you guys keep sounding like Fox instead of an actual conservative news station and I keep going to real America’s voice. I only watch is now you’re down to weekends got your weekends in the morning really is terrible especially that Australian women. There’s no American conservative women. They could be better in the morning just like Fox..Version: 3.7.2
✓ Same as CNNDisappointed over the demeanour of an anchor during Mike Lindell interview..Version: 3.0.8
✓ Controlled opposition fake newsFake news, controlled opposition. Newsmax is not your friend. OANN and RSBN are only way to go.Version: 3.0.8
✓ Love the content, but can’t watch it.Constant freezing and buffering. Not a wifi issue..Version: 3.4.0
✓ Right on!If you’re after Fake News, this is one of the best apps to download! This “channel” aims to serve a willing audience a meaty diet of untruths, often as a trumpsteak that’s hard to swallow. I would suggest the best way to use the Newsmax app is with your eyes shut and ears closed. Take it from me, this advice will prevent you from hating your fellow citizens and imagining there is a deep state somewhere on the moon..Version: 3.0.7
✓ Balance is KeyDiscussions are great. Varying perspectives makes Newsmax more credible. Biggest flaw is the promoting of the “Miss Bild Lilli” stereotype from Nazi Germans 1933. It undermines the professionalism of female newscasters. The news is not the place to play the sex card. Fire make up and wardrobe and hire some professional competent women to do the job both on and off screen. It undermines what you present..Version: 3.2.1
✓ Poor support for Apple TV appI have been requesting Newsmax to update their app for Apple TV and Firestick but they seem to not care. I have even sent them requests directly. While trying to view previously recorded program: 1: on fast forward 2x you still hear voices 2: you have to get the controls to display before you can pause/start 3: once you get to half way through a show you can’t fast forward anything faster than 2x or the the app will freeze up and you have no further control. 4: fast forward above 2x becomes choppy jumping back and forth. 5: fast forward on Firestick is horrible as you have no idea where to stop because you don’t see any movement on the video actually moving forward. 6: when using the remote for AppleTV you have to push a button one to bring up the controls on the display before you can actually have any controls work. Who designed this? There is no other app on AppleTV that functions this way. I should be able to press pause and the program pauses, but no I have to press pause for the controls to be displayed before I can press pause again to actually get the program to pause. This is the same for any remote control function while using the AppleTV app. It would be nice to see as many updates for AppleTV and Firestick as for the iPhone. Great programs but the software developers seem to be lacking on urgency of keeping the apps working..Version: 3.3.4
✓ Great Content, Absolutely Horrible AppI love all of the shows Newsmax provides, this is not a negative review of your news content. But the app, both on my iPhone and Fire TV, is by far the most frustrating app I've experienced in a long.. Long time. You would think prior to forcing a monthly subscription, which I would gladly pay if the app wasn't so horrible, you would address the functionality of your product. Issues: - Does not keep me logged in for extended periods of time - When it does decide to let me/keep me log in it's a gamble on whether it recognizes I have the newsmax + subscription or not - When it does recognize I have the Newsmax + subscription and I eventually get to tune in to the programming I get anywhere between 5-15 minutes of watch time before severe buffering issues (no it's not my connection to the internet) or the app just flat out crashes and it's another roll of the dice on the first two issues again. -If I have to pause a show when I continue it I receive audio from the point I paused from and the live feed at the same time causing me to restart my stream. -When one show ends and another begins it's a guaranteed app crash. Fix your app, get a good review and my subscription money. Until then this whole experience is simply terrible and not worth my energy no matter how much I enjoy your content..Version: 5.0.1
✓ NewsmaxNewsmax has sold out and gone totally MSM, don’t bother with this app if you really want to what’s going on..Version: 3.3.5
✓ Done with NewsmaxThey invited Mike Lindell on, and didn’t let him speak. Then they left while on air..Version: 3.0.8
✓ CensorMAXGive this show the middle finger just like the rest of those that Censor Freedom of speech.Version: 3.0.8
✓ No Longer StellarI've got no problem paying for Newsmax+ signed up 10/31. For several years everything about Newsmax was STELLAR. The launch of Newsmax+ has been anything but for loyal viewers. 11/6 finally able to access on Roku with difficulty~As there's a glitch that makes people sign in every time they try to watch. Newsmax Anchors advertising for + say it's just like NETFLIX but it's not as we don't have to sign in every single time we use the service. The IPhone app is also experiencing glitches. I was hoping the latest update would solve these issues but alas it has not. 3 star review not because of programming anchors or reporters. 3 stars because of technical difficulties users have to deal with in order to access programming. Please fix these problems..Version: 5.0.4
✓ Your a disgraceYour horrible reporters and their ridiculous attack and not letting mike lindell speak? I am done! Dont add these fools to your news. How do I delete you forever? I will never click on your app again goodbye.Version: 3.0.8
✓ Passable iPhone app, TV app is unbearableThe Apple TV app needs to be thrown out and discarded and redone from the ground up, for people that just use the Apple Remote, the interface stupid, when you click on live TV, the play pause button, and all that other stuff doesn’t disappear right away like any other app out there. You have to play around with it to make it go away which is just stupid. there’s also a few other things that really makes me want to dislike this app a whole lot. The fact that it just doesn’t work very well. I want to definitely continue watching Newsmax but I’m just gonna watch it on my iPhone. I can’t stand this TV app as it is. It makes me wonder if the developer ever actually used an Apple TV remote when designing/testing the app? If they want to make me happy, they would make the freaking scan bar and the play button disappear as soon as the video started going..Version: 3.7.0
✓ I’m so upsetI have convinced so many people to switch from Fox to Newsmax. And today I come home to put it on my app on the phone or the app on Roku and it won’t let me in so then I find out I have to pay money? To watch the news that’s going on in my country I have to pay money? That is so wrong. I thought you were way better than Fox you just wanna copycat everybody else and CNN. You just want to be like everybody else you don’t want to stand out and be one and only different and then you have so much people looking up to you with respect, but if you join in with all the rest, you’re no better than anyone else God says to stand different don’t join the rest and you just joined them all. I can’t believe it. I’m an American citizen, my whole entire life I’ve been able to watch the news, and now I have to have a subscription to watch the news. I don’t have cable I live on a fixed income who can afford rent utilities insurance, gas food on like 1100 a month you tell me and then all these stupid apps want money now, it’s stupid it’s wrong it’s bad we can’t even be just normal. You make thousands and thousands of dollars you don’t need to ask for money for us to be able to watch the News!.Version: 5.0.4
✓ Right Wing CrazinessThey will block your account from posting comments if you say anything judged to be anti-right or left-wing. If you are a Qanon-loving right-wing nut, you’ll fit right in..Version: 3.0.8
✓ Changeover to NexmaxPlusSad that it is so confusing and difficult to get back to watching Newsmax all day. The last few days I feel really lucky when I find a way to catch a Newsmax Show every now and then. I paid for a year subscription for the new updated app (?) I don’t know if there is even a new app, can’t seem to find it. The old app doesn’t work. Just a real bummer because I was all in with Newsmax since the beginning. Now at such a crucial news time in this world I can’t get my news updates immediately. I guess I will try AON until Newsmax gets things figured out. Rob Schmitt is the best, I do hate that in the last few months he seems to have guest hosts quite often. But, I won’t stop watching him when I can. I don’t like that weekends and late night, often it’s either reruns of old news or history shows (though I really enjoy the history shows, I prefer to choose them from the app at times when I am looking for that type program..Version: 5.0.1
✓ News max censorsI was watching news max and live right there i watched them censor a guest that was on about being censored on Twitter. The cuck anchor even walked off. It was the my pillow guy that was being interviewed a great patriot. I am about to delete the newsmax app and will never watch again. OAN is my new go to. Now my review won't show it's been a couple days..Version: 3.0.8
✓ OkNon fonctionne pas bien plante Bug très pénible.Version: 3.0.6
✓ Can’t even get it to work nowUpon the change to this Newsmax plus I can’t even get it to login. the actual Newsmax plus isn’t even on the App Store. It’s the regular Newsmax. at one point last week I was able to create the account pay for the subscription now and now I can’t even access any of it. I keep coming up with blank screens or it goes to the regular Newsmax the unpaid version. this is my favorite channel. I watched it from the time I got up to the time I went to bed it was on all my devices and now I can’t even watch it. I can’t even find the news max plus I guess they’re gonna have to figure it out when they lose all their customers because all the apps are broken or something it’s just not working right. Hopefully gets figured out soon or I’ll have to find another network myself..Version: 5.0.1
✓ Newsmax DistractionsAs an avid news viewer I am appalled at the number of minutes and news breaks being used in your daily Newsmax broadcast shows from 4 pm to 7 pm daily to showcase your Historical mini-series such as, American Moment, Freedom Lives, An American Life, An American Place and others in your prime time news hours. I have a degree in history and yes these may be informative however, they do not belong in any news cast. If you want to air these mini-series then take time out of your 24 Hour schedule and schedule them separately from your news program they do not belong in your news of the day. I watch newsmax for one reason and one reason only and that is to listen and view the news of the day not to get a history lesson. I have started to tune out newsmax and watch OAN where only news is being reported. Your mini-series is a real distraction. I will hate to give up my newsmax but please go back to real up to date comprehensive news broadcast and drop your mini-series from your news hours..Version: 3.7.2
