Funnel for Negative User Reviews
✓ LackingThe sever is so slow it will seem all your pro purchases are not loaded. Grossly flawed. Stream almost never auto load or auto play..Version: 3.3.3
✓ Total waste of time and money!!I purchased and installed the app and I was advised by each news service the next update would occur in a couple of hours. When the time for the update was reached each news service stated that the next update would be in another couple of hours. The problem is the application never displayed any articles for any of the news service. Of all of the apps I have purchased (several hundred) this is the worst ripoff I have encountered, as you literally don’t get anything!! My advice is stay away from this “app”..Version: 3.3.2
✓ No option to purchase pro?Opened app and only asks me to restore a Pro purchase. No in-app option to purchase..Version: 3.3.2
✓ BBC doesn't workBBC will not play..Version: 3
✓ Nope. In-app purchases barely noticeable.There is something a tinge deceiving about the in-app purchases in the app!! The word "PRO" is shown in the tiniest font above what appear to be seemingly benign settings. Other than that there is NO WARNING or notice that you're about to purchase a $9 dollar feature only to auto play the news. Not good. Deceitful. Cheat..Version: 3.1
✓ Scam?Paid for full app. News stops playing when phone goes to sleep. So can’t actually hit play and go about other activities — need to keep app active and phone awake. App Support link in AppStore redirects to some b******t Amazon loyalty scam..Version: 4.1
✓ Want to use it daily - but 2 missing features made me delete itStill no fix for these missing vital features. Almost all my audio entertainment and information is via podcasts and/or streams. I actually keep 3 podcast apps on my iPhone because each has features I want/need. I would enjoy having an app like Funnel. With the pro version features it would literally be a one-tap source for news. But 2 major features that most podcast apps have are missing: 1) Registering it with the system as a spoken-word audio app. Because it is not recognized as such, if I am using a Navigation app the voice directions speak on top of the news playback. Subsequently I can’t hear several seconds of the news I’m listening to which usually leads to missing information relevant to the story. 2) Ability for short skips backward and forward in playback. You know this feature: you missed something and you want to go back a few seconds to hear it again. Or maybe you want to skip some audio to get to something else. Even more disappointing is that it doesn’t have these commands available via Bluetooth like most all other major non-Apple podcast apps do. I’ll be monitoring Funnel’s updates in case they add these must have features. When they do, I’ll pay for the pro version. In the meantime I’m glad I got the basic version when it was free..Version: 4.0
✓ Doesn’t work anymore...Neither of the two functions in the paid upgrade work. Ads have crept in too, so I suspect the support has given way to milking this as a cash cow..Version: 4.1
✓ BBC News won't syncBBC News does not sync after recent update. Also, despite requests for supporting Australian News, the app still does not include a single Australian news, making the app leas appealing..Version: 3
✓ All leftist stationsJust like most of the corrupt liberal media, this app only includes liberal stations to continue carrying the left’s absurd, lunatic agenda..Version: 5.0
✓ Love the concept. Need iPad version.Great concept. Doesn’t rotate to landscape orientation when devices are oriented this way..Version: 4.0
✓ Pro version no longer auto play.Love the app, however the app no longer auto play despite purchased pro version. iPhone Pro 13 iOS 16.1..Version: 5.0
✓ Crashes recentlyI really liked the app and the idea behind it but recently it has started to crash and stops working after one minute of playing any of the news channels. Please fix it and I will fix my rating!.Version: 3.1
✓ Clean and simple, but maybe too simple.I really like this app, it's great for what it does and i use it several times a week. A glaring omission is a 10 sec back and 10 sec forward skip found in all podcasting apps. Please add this simple feature in and I'll gladly review it at 5 stars..Version: 3.1
✓ GreatHave been using this religiously for a couple of weeks. Would be great to be able to add some more sources. Don't know if possible but it would be amazing if the news could be my morning alarm too..Version: 3
✓ Arabic language plzArabic language plz 😔😔😔.Version: 3.3.2
✓ Don’t get this!I clicked one button and I am now being charged $9.99 and could not retract my action : (.Version: 3.3.2
✓ Great idea but, Does not play on launch!Now over 2 years later and STILL waiting for a fix. Not playing on launch! , stops playing, closes suddenly.Version: 4.1
✓ Ads squeezingIt seems developers are squeezing ads, something back a few years ago ads did not play..Version: 4.1
✓ $35 IAPUnreal. If it was a reasonable charge, I'd be buying instead of leaving this review. I'm all for supporting developers but this is greed pure & simple..Version: 3.3.2
✓ Unauthorized ChargesThought I liked the app until out of nowhere I get charged $7.65 on ITunes account for “Pro Settings” which I did not authorize. Deleted the app..Version: 3.2
✓ Doesn't do what it saysNot sure why I had to pay to unlock all of the features when said features don't work. The app plays one newscast and then stops. Disappointed..Version: 2
✓ Watch out! Deceitful AppYou pay for the app to support it. Then they try to charge you an additional $9 to automatically play the news when the app opens. There is no price warning of $9 charge to unlock “pro” feature until after u pay.Version: 3.3.2
✓ Hate itMost annoying: tight integration with siri. I do not use siri for anything. Completely off. So the huge Add to siri button that cannot be removed is a deal breaker. Second, each source appears to be one big block of audio, no chapters, no titles, not even an indication of length. How is this better than radio? Removed.Version: 4.0
✓ Custom play order is neededAuto play fix coming is helpful..Version: 2.1
✓ Good if You Like Propaganda From the EstablishmentGood if You Like Propaganda From the Establishment.Version: 3.3.2
✓ Please provide custom source option for pro usersPlease provide custom source option for pro users.Version: 3.3.2
✓ Crashes when screen goes to sleep, dev not active?Used to be my go-to news feed for the morning commute, even paid for the pro upgrade. App started to crash when phone display goes to sleep in iOS12. App hasn’t been updated for 9 months, other apps by G2 LLC haven’t been updated for years. Abandonware. Use Apple podcasts with stations instead. Does the same thing but works with Siri and HomePod..Version: 3.3.2
✓ Wonder fullWonderful.Version: 3.3.2
✓ Can’t use in app purchasesCan’t use an app purchases for this product.Version: 5.1.5
✓ Amazing but had bugs even with PRO purchaseThis is the one app I use DAILY. I started to notice bugs with it and figured if I upgraded to the pro purchase that might resolve them but it still continues. I would like to cancel the purchase as it’s not helping..Version: 4.1
✓ Poor controlsPoor interface feedback, limited controls.Version: 3.3.2
✓ Waste of timeNo news. Keeps telling me an update is waiting but is not syncing.Version: 3
✓ I'm furiousYou guys made me pay for the app first and then $2.7 extra for autoplay just to find out that autoplay doesn't work. Fix immediately or refund me the $2.7 extra I paid for a non-working simple feature..Version: 3.3
✓ Missing two essential features.I’d happily pay double the asking price if I could skip back and forth like every other audio player and add my own feeds. SO close to having a dominating app!!!.Version: 5.0
✓ BBC News is broken - please fixI've been using this for years in conjunction with Siri to listen to BBC headlines, but while other sources still work, selecting BBC has done nothing for the last few weeks. I've tried deleting and reinstalling the app to no avail, so I assume it's a specific problem with a broken link to BBC news. Please fix! Thanks in advance..Version: 4.1
