I NFB newsline review
As much as I like this app, I think they’ve gotten a little bit sloppy in their development. The app doesn’t seem to be near Lee as functional as it used to in previous versions. There is the issue of moving from one page to another, there is the issue of never knowing where you’re going to land once you change pages and the issue that once you have a particular area that you want to use on a regular basis, whenever you re-open the app you have to re-initialize it in order for it to function properly. Also I think the idea of adding the basic function of the KNFB reading software should not have been added. It actually does a disservice to the app and takes away from its initial function
ytybc,
Very disappointed
First of all I very much appreciate NFB News Line and the people that are providing us with this content I’ve been a user for many years and felt that the original version was much better. The new version it is so tedious it’s just plain sad. I read the Boston Globe and recently they did away with being able to read articles line by line. Spacev there’s no way to read an article line by line so if I miss something near the end I have to start all over again on a waste of my time. Adding a reader to this app was just such a big mistake. Regarding the my favorites section it worked just fine before I could read the whole paper going back-and-forth back-and-forth back-and-forth from page to page it’s extremely tedious and not very well done. I have called the 800 number many times and talked about things that don’t work and they’re very helpful.
It’s about a year later and they still haven’t fixed saving an article to my email.
Also, many publications have incomplete articles like Consumer Reports. The first four articles are nonexistent just a byline and a headache.

What’s not to like? Free information from periodicals and newspapers many of which were never available before to blind people. The addition of special weather and TV listings raises the quality. Also contains a basic version of K Nf B Reader. I have use this application for years. I get articles from my local newspaper and the associated press plus many magazines. I have used it both in the United States and when I was abroad. It is very easy to use without the complex down loading required of other systems.

Out of the darkness
I would like to state my appreciation for the NFB Newsline for providing a wide range of magazines, and other interesting information that would otherwise not be accessible to blind persons. I love the fact that smartphones can access this service on-the-go and how easy it is to navigate. Thank you for opening the eyes for blind people, by helping us to access a great variety of topics. I give a rating of excellent!

Global news search not working in 3.3.1
No matter which device I use, iPhone or iPad, global news search always tells me that there is a problem communicating with the server. So I can't look up anything. Other than that, it's a great app and provides a service to great to evaluate.

Not a good update
Downloaded the most recent version and it’s now very cumbersome to get around and read articles. With the previous version, I was able to open a newspaper and browse through all the articles in a section. Now, I have to go in and out of every article and can’t just do a two-finger swipe down and listen to the entire section. I’m giving it two stars just because I can still get to the articles, but I wish I had never downloaded the update.

Keeping updated in today’s world
Politically speaking access to the left and to the right worldwide. Lots of good entertainment, environmental issues, and access to the medical world.

Latest update has made the app on usable
The latest 3.1 update on July 2, 2022 has made the news line app unusable. I am no longer able to open individual articles. This renders the app useless.
This is very disappointing to me because I use this app daily. It is my primary source of news information.
Sure do hope whoever is responsible for the app figures out what has broken, and pushes an update ASAP.

Love this app for people who are blind or with print disabilities.
This app changes the game for people who are blind, low vision or with print-related disabilities. I get great access to periodicals in a fully accessible platform. Thank you!

Need significant improvement
I love the idea of this app unfortunately the subscription section has all the publications scrambled in the latest version of iOS and now the publication section often won’t read the full section properly
