I understand that this was pre-installed by Samsung, and can't be unintalled. I want to disable it, unfortunately, I get a message that says it may effect other apps if I do. Obviously, Samsung is to blame for that also. I don't care for the Briefing app itself. Different sources for the news is of no use for me. I only use one news app... It's the least biased source I've found, and it's all I need.
50% of the time when I click on a link and a website opens it loads so slow that if I click on anything on the page it closes and I have to keep going back to re-open it. If these publications want to post their articles on a third party website, such as Flipboard, then article limits should be removed as some months I look don't read any of their articles. And on other months there might be a couple of articles a particular publication that catch my eye and I cannot access them.
the simple reason this gets the worst possible rating is that it cannot be permanently turned off. after every update it turns itself back on again. what good is an app you never asked for that integrates into the home screen and turns itself on against your wishes??! well, no good at all
Been using the app for years, but it now allows various malicious ad pop-ups to appear either within the app or as multiple windows in the browser. The ones within the app are practically impossible to close, requiring exiting whichever article you are reading. No response when reporting this issue. Will change rating once response is given and fix provided.
Edit: Despite their suggestion below, it is impossible to stop the app from auto-updating when it feels like it. This is despite the fact that I have prevented it from auto-updating and disabled it in app manager. I'm sick of having to constantly delete the updates and frustrated I can't uninstall an app that has news that isn't relevant to my part of the world. I don't even WANT to see the news.
I really want to remove this app. There's something wrong when you're given a way to do that. I'm being forced to see this app pop up on my screen all the time, whether I want it or not. It is impossible to disable this app. There is no " disable" button to push, or box to check or uncheck; just a toggle sliding button. I slide it to what I believe is Off, but later, Flipboard is soon showing up on my home screen with more " suggested" reading. I've been a Verizon customer since 2001, but I may
Came with my Samsung tablet; there's so much annoying about it. The "articles" in the shopping group have not changed in a year or so, as well as a particular article about making lasagne in a regular news section. Aggravating: when it links sites you need a paid account to view; when swiping up to scroll a page instead takes you back to the app main screen; and along with that when the articles on the main screen refresh and the one you were just trying to read is no longer there.
I don't want this app and would like to have an option to uninstall it. I know it is not system vital and offers no intrinsic benifits. For now I have disabled it. For those interested, swipe away from the flipboard screen and click an empty part of the home screen. Wait till it enter edit mode, the swipe back to flipboard. In the upper right of the flipboard edit screen is on on/off switch. Go ahead and swipe it to off so it stops eating your data and on board ram. It will also remove flipboard from one of your acessable screens.
Navigating continually changes. Recommended articles can't be read without subscribing to article publication. Notifications are continuous (way too many). Links are slow. It can't be uninstalled & automatically re-enables (if disabled) after updates, which also can't be turned off. It takes up a bunch of memory and system resources. Just a terrible app 100%
great app! however when i try to search for topics, i cannot find anything. i unsigned from several topics in the past, and now the "find a topic" option doesnt work
