The news powerhouse in iOS

Newsmax is a mobile news application developed by a leading news media agency in America, Newsmax Media, Inc. It offers breaking news on various fields, such as politics, world events, finance, and health. With this, you can be on top of everything. Being a news fireball, this app allows you to watch Newsmax TV live all-day-everyday in any part of the world. Published as Newsmax TV & Web in App Store, it is compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.

Is the Newsmax app free?

With this multimedia app, you can get full access to the freshest and latest news update throughout the world. It also offers easy entry to Newsmax.com—a popular news website Americans turn to for real news for real people. Not only that, but you will also be able to stream tons of hit shows with influential personalities such as Greg Kelly, Sean Spicer, Chris Salcedo, Nancy Brinker, to mention a few. Newsmax is a free-to-use application, so you can get your news fix with no subscription fees. 

However, while the app contains the best news content catalog, using it can be a bit of a disappointment. The app itself is not convenient to use, as it performs poorly and exhibits some technical glitches. Its biggest deal-breaker is its cluttered interface and poor navigation. It will take you a lot more navigation to get to the news, and when you’re done reading a story, you will go back to the main page instead of the news feed. There are also many instances wherein a new story wouldn’t load properly. 

On the other hand, blind users of the app will also experience a hard time with some of its controls to enable voiceover reading. You will find it specifically difficult to look for the play button after choosing Audio. Moreover, this app offers way more advertising than news as intrusive pop-up ads always appear everywhere the app, which adversely affects your reading experience.

Needs to be overhauled

News content-speaking, Newsmax is heavily packed with it. However, its user interface and navigation system require a massive polishment. All the great stories and TV show content that this news app provides will go to waste if these issues are not fixed. Furthermore, the app should also tone down the pop-up ads to the amount that is bearable by many.
