Microsoft Start for Positive User Reviews

Regular NewsRefreshing to read & listen the news.Version: 3.2.11

Microsoft News appExcellent, Awesome, comprehensive news app covering Politics, Sports, Current Affairs, Weather etc..Version: 27.1.410923001

You cannot block ads and malware, and after. Reinstallation saved content is half goneThis is ruining my experience with the app and I have zero feedback contacted the support..Version: 27.6.411215601

Wonderful looking fwd to continual improvementsI was initially going to get four stars just because there’s still a lot of obvious improvements but I decided to get five because I really love that they are giving us access to the latest GPT model for free and I can tell that their pushing to make as much available to the public as possible which I think is great. This is stimulating our growth in so many ways because it allows us to use our creativity and brains to explore even if we don’t have the physical or technical skill in the given area, we can still contribute to growth in our literature, and you name it!.Version: 27.7.420112601

BuyingI don’t want to buy any stories but it is a good app if you like to catch up on what is happening out there in our world !.Version: 3.2.8

Great newsI have to say the news coverage is really good both domestic and global. It’s my goto news app. Having deleted apple news. The only thing that lets this app down, is the picture gallery. When it gives you extra pictures to view sometimes it’s from a completely different topic or a lot of times there’s no picture at all. Shame really but that’s Microsoft for you, almost there but not quite..Version: 2.2.96

Good all round world newsThis is a great app to get a view / snapshot of what’s happened in the world. The snippets of detail provide a headline and you can the choose to go to the article of interest so all good for me and the way I think and work..Version: 7.1.13

Surprisingly GoodThe updated and refreshed Microsoft News app (formerly MSN News) is surprisingly good- says I who is someone who is not a great fan of news apps. One star short of a full house, simply because like all other news apps, other than RSS Feed reader apps, it only does reverse chronological ordering of items. Hands up everyone who wants to read who won the World Cup before reading which countries are in the competition in the first place?.Version: 3.1

Cecil RenfieldA good news site, well laid out and legible typeface. I give it a once over daily and more..Version: 3.2.8

Insightful News and Analysis are on pointThis app is very precise with the current happenings. I will continuously check it and get quick update to date information. Very helpful Wes apps . Cheers George Gle.Version: 27.1.410925002

Much improvedContent is much better in the last 3-4 moths. Was getting sick of gossip, entertainment and Hollywood BS stories. Good job! Please drop Daily Mail..Version: 3.2.9

PerfectCouldn’t be any better. This app is better than any other news service..Version: 7.1.11

Wonderful Way to Start and End My Day!I grew up in the era of the daily newspaper, where each day’s delivery brought so much more than the news, but comics, coupons, sales, games, and more. Microsoft Start has essentially filled that place in my life. I love having an overview of world, national, state, and local news each morning as well as a good measure of personalized topics of interest to counter some of the heaviness I sometimes read. I’ve also been using Bing Rewards for years, so having this and general shopping features baked in has been really helpful to keep me on track. There’s so much more that I could write, but suffice to say that I am very happy with Microsoft Start and how it has continually evolved to bring ever greater value to my day..Version: 7.1.10

RefreshingNice to see slightly different direction in news gathering. Not the same as your competitors..Version: 7.1.5

App good Survey don't bother!I like the app. However after just a few uses got a pop up to rate the app. Was quite happy to do this as find the app is good. Entered selection, added comment, clicked tick.... now app won't load anymore!!! No more surveys for me on apps I want to keep using!.Version: 3.2.5

GoodGood.Version: 7.1.2

It’s more useful than I thought it would beI didn’t know how useful this app would be when I first got it. I thought ‘it might come in handy’ but have since found myself calling on it more and more. I have given it five stars as a start! Maintaining those five stars is now going to be the trick, folks! G.Version: 27.3.411101001

MSN newsIt's an excellent easy to use app and superior to many paid digital news mags. I enjoy the msn digital read every morning with my coffee. There is little need for a physical daily newspaper these days though we still get it delivered for my wife who is a slow tech adopter. MSN news is the way of the future..Version: 2.2.96

Excellent produit.Ce que j’aime c’est que tout est centralisé à un seul endroit. On trouve réponse à toutes les questions posées.Version: 27.3.411109601

Nice to read easy and always up to dateAs above.Version: 3.2.27

I Love Microsoft NewsMicrosoft news is brilliant it keeps me up to date with every day news, as and when I need it ! Thank you 😊.Version: 3.2.47

Excellent appAs a stroke victim I find that this app is easy 4 me 2 navigate ✅.Version: 27.7.420112601

La meilleure app pour toutLa meilleure app sur iOS pour tout: météo, interêts, traffic, recherches, nouvelles et OpenAI, c’est mon outils et mon app préférée que j’utilise et regarde à chaque fois j’utilise mon iPhone.Version: 7.25.3

Works fineWorks fine but seems a little clunky..Version: 7.25.4

RGENeed option to change voice , change distance measurements and colour on time to destination to be red when there is traffic and green when no traffic..Version: 27.8.420206601

Super ExcitedI love waking up to the “Smart” - generated location that I live with news, weather and more!! Finally a place that can make a difference in my daily life..Version: 27.5.411205601

I really like them now!I watched the first 3 episodes last night and realized for the first time what a horrible disservice they’ve been given. I believe their story Is the truth. They are obviously very much in love. And next to nothing about Megan’s outstanding work in standing up for the rights of others, her solo work in Africa, her high intelligence and caring nature have been written about. She is constantly referred to in derogatory terms. So wrong! And Harry is obviously an intelligent, caring and sensitive man who also happens to be quite handsome. I loved the pics of their sweet family. And applaud their bravery in leaving the firm in order to save their own family. While watching I couldn’t help but wonder if William and Kate wish it were themselves. Really looking forward to the next three episodes. Also, my husband who never follows the royals watched the 3 episodes straight in a row with me and agreed with my thoughts..Version: 7.1.10

It Is A Good News App ButThis is a really good news app but it does appear Apple has blocked the free games on this app as it did work. There is quite a lot I haven’t looked into yet but I will be looking into it. As I still have my Samsung tablet, I can play the games on that so it is not too much of a problem..Version: 3.2.46

AiI would like to know that my account can open up my Apple Watch.Version: 7.1.10

Avis perso.Tant que je vais continuer à trouver ça intéressant et divertissant….Version: 7.1.11

Great AppI love this app. Well designed with reactions and comments. I think they could take this even farther with tags that are like reactions, but more informative. They could use tags to select content better. The articles are good and a mix, seems to have much less bias than other news apps. Also, the app has good performance. I'm curious what they do with this next. I feel that there's somethings missing still with the design to make it optimal. But it's the best news app that I've used so far and I experiment with a lot of news apps..Version: 3.2.49

Microsoft NewsFair and balanced...quality news.Version: 3.2.3

Money to win playing gamesI Love money to pay my wife and my bills.Version: 7.1.7

Excellent News at a Finger tap!I love waking up with a cup of tea to news on my i pad. World news and news from home is covered with up to the minute information. Have the option to scroll through and read more in depth on each headline. A very happy reader and user of the app..Version: 3.2.56

Fantastic!Thank you, everybody.Version: 7.1.13

Best news aroundNo nonsense news. Excellent reporting and selection of stories and facts..Version: 2.2.135

The app is clean, concise & easy to navigateFast and at your fingertips. Briefing articles is easy, clean and the integration of comment/input from readers and follow/follower is excellent. The interface is clean, and customizable. I removed Apple News, because of article selections and promotion. Start is the Best news app I’ve used..Version: 7.1.6

Real newsHas more real news than our national broadcaster. The MSN news website is also my prime source of news..Version: 2.2.134

Love it!User friendly, great features, everything I need. Better than Google. Definately recommend to try..Version: 7.1.10

Good butI like most of this app and I use it for search, weather and the news. Bing weather is massively underrated. Bing news is OK but I wish there was less click bait. I've tried making my interests more serious but I still get some rubbish. And what's with everyone being so angry about everything in the news comments?!.Version: 3.2.55

MeI like this App; it’s excellent 👍.Version: 27.4.411121601

NewsGreat wide selection of articles..Version: 3.2.25

Love MSNThe MSN news app is easy to navigate through to find the stories that I really am interested in. I have found MSN to be very objective in their news reports. When a mistake has been made the editorial staff will print a retraction/correction with an apology to their readers. The only issue I have is the color of the app tends to blend into the background of my home screen. I would appreciate a change to the color and design to work with a darker background like I have..Version: 2.2.31

Crashing and errorsThis ap crashes continuously and error notice telling me me there is something wrong with my internet connection, when clearly it's working for everything else. This needs a fix !.Version: 2.2.96

This App Has Come a Looong Way!I’ve used Microsoft news before, but uninstalled due to not having features I find important, especially the widget. Now it’s there and I’m happy as can be with Microsoft News, BUT there is one feature that is lacking; Custom news notifications. I want to be notified when other topics I follow have new stories. My Notification Center and widget are loaded with political stories, but not with what’s important to me too, which doesn’t make sense. Thanks Microsoft News for making a reliable app that I can count on!.Version: 3.2.9

Love the new design.PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE add RSS subscription support. It will make this app superior to anything else on the market!! Thank you. Edit: You guys used to have an amazing MSN Weather app. Please at least add a weather section to the Microsoft news app..Version: 3.2.6

One reasonI haven’t experienced any crashes yet as others have. I use this on an iPhone 6 and iPhone 7 Plus. I haven’t watched or read the news for many years since it’s mostly negative and all politics is garbage. I own this for one reason. ‘GOOD NEWS’. It’s about time someone did something like this. I can now skip all the negative bull**** and go straight to the stuff that doesn’t try to pull me down. Then I can skip right over to technology and be done. Super easy..Version: 2.2.98

All news delivered by MSN. 👍Google News is filter through the minds of Google employees. 🤮.Version: 3.2.25

The new layout is awesomeRecently updated, this feels like a totally different app. Infinitely more usable and professional look and feel..Version: 3.2.47

AiT2 is next.Version: 27.7.420112601

EasyVery easy to use very useful fun quiz’s and stuff to do i recommend to everyone!.Version: 27.3.411101001

Ok for what it is.This seems to be an MSN News rebrand. I will have to see what it’s algorithms serve up but I am expecting a whole bunch of pointless celebrity drivel. On the positive side the “nearby” option seems to a maps application which does what local scout used to do on my Windowsphone. I was hoping Microsoft might actually provide a full maps app so I work between my PC and iPhone more easily. Seems to overlap with the Bing app..Version: 7.0.1

MSN newsGreat way to stay up to date with what’s going on in the world. And great that the app is on my iPad and phone so I am always able to have a read..Version: 2.2.134

Best is right here!You get free Chat GPT-4 with Dalle3 image generation! All the news you’re interested in plus safe internet browsing..Version: 27.4.411121601

No. 1So easy to find latest news..Version: 2.2.135

The bestThis has been my go-to app for news for a long time now. I love the simplicity..Version: 1.2.64

Surprisingly relevantAs well as the top stories from around the world I also get local news. I tend to stream most of what I watch on TV which means I don’t watch the news. Great app to keep you informed..Version: 7.25.4

ExellentTres réussi cette application jaimes ça quand c’est complet simple y manque de rien tout est dans meme application.Version: 27.7.420112601

First reviewI have been using the Microsoft Start app since it came public. I found it’s one of the only apps that I’ve been able use to get my Bing points. Using a Start app to get Bing points is a little complex and buggy at times. While I like the all in one app for news, shopping and receipt scanning here are a few drawbacks… I getting points takes much more time now. Sometimes you get points on clicks and sometimes nothing. Sometimes you can click through the trending news and click click click and get points, sometimes nothing at all and you have to come back later in the day to finish. In the last few days, I had the app freeze up on both iPad and iPhone. While I could clear history for the day and week without a problem the app crashed when trying to clear the longer dated history, i.e. 4 week history and all history. This was replicated on my iPhone and iPad both and this maybe due to limitations of the RAM or sandbox memory but hopefully this information will help to may the app better in future updates. Thank you Microsoft support teams for all you are doing..Version: 27.7.420112601

Bonne présentationFacile à utiliser et l’abondance des nouvelles.Version: 7.25.8

Has issuesI read this every day but...it has issues. Sometimes you click on a story only for another story - the wrong story to appear. They will talk about a video but won’t include the link for it - which is rather annoying. If you click on the picture for the story it will sometimes include other random pictures. The “Good news” isn’t updated often enough - really? It’s that hard to find good things to report? And sometimes the “good news” is depressing. It’s just ok but better than most of the other stuff..Version: 2.2.135

Review lachlans thoughtsDon’t really think much about search functions of the app can only see certain items in news feed..Version: 7.0.2

Good job Microsoft or the product manager or the product ownerUpdated to the new version, good job. Interface looks much better. Now i will try the news.Version: 3.2.47

Très d ´actualitéRapide informations de l’ actualité.Version: 7.25.4

GreatLike having the ability to choose the country's feed.Version: 2.2.1

NewsBrilliant and in fromative and don’t have any trouble at all reading the news now since the letting as been made bigger. Thank you.Version: 3.2.47

ReviewExcellent!.Version: 3.2.25

I have edge on mobile do you want me to delete itI have edge on mobile do you want Microsoft or edge.Version: 3.2.41

I don’t like change, but I get used to it!Update to my review below; review 2: I have got used to the new version of this app, but I miss the old one. Saying that, there are less issues with it. When I click on a story, it is the story. Whereas before, sometimes I would click on a story, and it wouldn’t be that one! It would be the story before! And it continued like it for the rest of the page. They couldn’t even make sure that the story and the title matched! There are quite a few mistakes and misspellings still, but hey, everyone is a reporter now, not just the trained professionals. Even I make mistakes, but then I’m not reporting to the world, professionally. Review 1: At least the pictures section has changed it’s pictures at last! It’s been months! I don’t like the new version. It’s not the app I’ve enjoyed for many years. It’s too white, and the format is like it’s another app. Stories lead on from stories rather than you going into each separate story. I will give it time to get used to it, but I might just look for a more pleasing to the eye app instead!.Version: 3.2.24

New as a morning drop of rainAt my age 71 technology sometimes mystifies me back in my teenage years if I wanted to phone someone I Had to walk to the telephone box half a mile away, yes there were phones in homes but we could never afford one today mobile phones are cheap as chips and everywhere.Version: 3.2.11

Good layoutA lot more accurate than BOM..Version: 27.6.411215601

Microsoft NewsIt’s Microsoft everything is good there.Version: 3.2.29

Excellent app ….Great app to get the daily news And be on top of our country’s current events. I would like more if it did not have the comments section. Most comments are disgraceful, ignorant and resentful. The people commenting on the news have nothing* better to do than attack the messenger and spit venous saliva. Please close the comments section so I can read the news without the feeling of grief for my country. Thanks.Version: 7.0.8

EntertainingKeeps me up to speed on life’s little mishaps and uphills. It’s also a very interesting app for down time in general.🧐.Version: 27.3.411101001

MillyEasy to use easy to find topics excellent.Version: 3.2.59

Great for news summaryAlways getting news articles with topic I care about. Something that other all are struggling with.Version: 27.1.410925002

Much better coverage for New Zealand viewers than either NZ Herald or StuffVery good. Better than the Herald or Stuff..Version: 3.1

Great News AppThis app works very well. I really liked the Apple News app, (in the beginning), but then there became too many articles that where behind a paywall, which was a waste of my time. Plus, it was inconsistent where it would open and load all stories quickly and then open very slowly the next time. Microsoft’s news app has been very consistent at opening fast, very interesting stories/articles, and a well laid out UI. Big fan so far! Keep up the great work Microsoft!!.Version: 3.2.37

Pretty goodI get the news that I’m looking for.Version: 27.7.420112601

Great appRefresh rate is good and relevant topics that meet my interest.Version: 7.0.6

Excellent news appHappy how I can leave comments but they should not be censored if they don’t meet the opinions of the censors.Version: 27.3.411101001

Works well and fastHave been using this app to catch up with the news that I am interested for more than 2yrs.Version: 2.2.31

Functional and well laid outSometimes bugs me that the links in the original story don't work, you sometimes wanna find out more and you have to go search for it hence 4 stars, but otherwise a solid news app.Version: 2.2.31

Read aloud is the reason to use this appI can be walking in the kitchen or in the yard still enjoying listening to the personalized newest content.I hope I can use a voice command to select the news or jump around this must be a totally hands-free discipline the mobile working from home or multitasking while consuming personalized news. The most impressive part is AI voice quality is unmatched anywhere! A great job by Microsoft AI!!!.Version: 3.2.59

Useful toolI have been using the App for just over a week. Seems very good to me. Clear content, relevant to me! Either I’m very predictable or the algorithms are excellent. Well done to the software engineers,.Version: 27.3.411027003

CanhardlyEnjoying the variety of news that you are presenting keep up the great work.Version: 3.2.11

Timely, but too frequentIt would be an improvement for me, if the alerts were less frequent..Version: 7.25.6

Font size too smallGreat app but how do I increase font size?.Version: 7.1.11

GlitchesReading article and all of a sudden it disappeared. Couldn’t get it back or at times not even find the article. I’ve also flagged articles that I wanted to follow, and never see them again. And yes, I know the difference between follow and delete. If this was a one time issue I could accept it, but it’s not just one time. It’s been multiple times and over a variety of topics. If it can be posted IT SHOULD NOT DISAPPEAR. Or is that just good old CENSORSHIP and CORRUPTION or someone decided it was not that much of an article. OH SNAP — isn’t that the same thing?.Version: 3.2.27

Great App.Have had MSN news on my phone for some time, only last week finally installed it on my IPad. Best of all the news Apps that I use, very easy to navigate also..Version: 2.2.31

Number one news sourceEver since MS updated msn it has been my number one news source.Version: 1.0

Very HelpfulI love visiting this app. It's got everything you need according to the countries as well. Cheers.Version: 2.2.1

The most comprehensive browser start page on mobileEven though I’m not an Edge user, I have to admit that the start page it offers is superior to the competition. It’s refreshing to get it on mobile even though I wish I could change the sources to ones closer to the centre of the political spectrum..Version: 7.0.5

Great source of newsGood way to take in news from the right and left of the political spectrum relevant to your location..Version: 27.8.420206601

Great AppGreat app. Every update makes it more useful. Can you please add an option to import or sync my bookmarks?.Version: 7.1.9

MrI am able to watch news anywhere and anytime so that’s great and not needed to follow the news you do/did for me. Thanks so much love your program App..Version: 3.2.47

NewsIt’s a fantastic service that’s been offered ,and keeping me up with the currant news.Version: 3.2.14

Best news appBest news app for iPhone, quick and response, customised news, covers national and world so wont miss anything.Version: 3.2.10
