VICE Media Hack 3.10.0 + Redeem Codes

The ‘for you’ tab is constantly loading ads in the background. That’s not a problem. You have a right to make money. The problem is when it loads a new ad that I have already scrolled past and that ad is a different size, it moves the article I am reading out of view. The page refreshes and I’m lost. This isn’t isolated, it’s constant. To the point where I lose articles all the time I am trying to read. I generally give up and go somewhere else. Shame because I love vice news.

Love vice news and their investigative journalism, the app is easy to use, and has lots of interesting articles.

However, they don’t seem to have proofreaders or editors checking the articles before uploading them. There are articles where the same paragraphs are repeated over and over, word misspellings (Vile instead of vial) that wouldn’t be picked up by Word but an editor could easily proof, and symbols in weird places. Even the biggest news organizations make mistakes, but when half an article is just duplicate paragraphs, kind of makes you not want to read or share it.

I downloaded the app and tried to create an account. The app looks nice; however, I can’t even create an account in order to view the articles. I tried my email address, my google, Facebook, and apple account, yet none of them allowed me to create an account or access the app. What’s the point in even having an account if it doesn’t even work? I also noticed that the last bug update for the app was a year ago! That doesn’t really help to raise confidence levels either. It looks like you hired someone to handle creating an app, they either quit or got fired and you said “F it” and gave up on rehiring someone. Hopefully you can get it together and fix the app soon because it can truly be a good place to get great information from.

I am in the middle of politics. I struggle between Democrats and conservatives. Besides one thing. Not every single tiny story, should have to do with American politics. Not everything Biden says is good. Not every thing Trump says is bad. Yes, a lot of what Trump has said is bad. A lot of what Biden said is good. But if you’re going to be biased, at least have the common decency to not lie. Even if you make up little details. Which Vice has been proven to do. As a news site, you have an obligation to want what’s best for this country, and it’s people. So call out people on their bluff, and be on your way, and don’t be 100% biased on one side, since that can lead to brainwashing. Which in my opinion, is evil. Be optimistic.

Signing in with my Google account doesn’t work: After tapping my Google account name it just drops me back to the prior screen without signing me in.
Jumping to sections like World News or Motherboard (tech) doesn’t work: Tapping those respective headers at the top of the screen does nothing but briefly show a “Just One Moment” dialogue. Then nothing.
Reading articles doesn’t work: Tapping on an article briefly brings up a white screen as if it is about to load. Then it falls back to the prior screen. So I can’t read the articles. I tried about 20 times for different articles. And eventually only one ever worked.

When I can get it to work, it is great. But, I think I can get the app to load 1/10 times, I try. I have tried both WiFi and mobile data, restarting my phone, deleting and reinstalling the app and get the same thing. The Vice shows up in the beginning as if it is going to load and then I get a black screen. I will probably just delete the app and go the mobile site as that is usually what I end up having to do anyways.

I’ve had the various Vice news apps for years and they’ve never worked properly. It used to never load Twitter content - articles referencing Twitter posts just showed a bunch of blank space.

Now this new app loads ads in the feed in a way that causes the page to scroll up and down despite screen input. Before you can even ride the article title it’s already shot off screen to load and ad :(

I love Vice and what it does in the world but they really need to invest in their mobile development teams or just stick to web format. From trouble getting the federated authentication to work to trying to filter stories based on topic, there was broken functionality everywhere. I hate to say it but there’s still much work to be done.

Just like everyone else, I couldn’t create an account. It just keeps asking me to create one. The search bar does absolutely nothing. If you type anything into it, nothing ever loads and the top tabs with categories does do anything. It just as the same news articles as the front page. It just gives a loading screen and does nothing. Kinda ridiculous when the very basic concepts of the app fails. Seriously, who made this??

Literally every article I read, is diverting me to the App Store. The tiny add in the middle of the screen sends me to the App Store, twice in most instances. It’s not even me touching the ad, it’s like the ad appears on my screen and it’s time for a redirect! Each time I open Vice, the app takes a bit to load due to lag, and when it’s done, it sends me to an article I didn’t click on because all the new articles show up all at once. Why?
