The app is good and much work has gone into making it the go-to F1 news source. It's the ads that take over my screen on my device is totally unacceptable. Small ads at the bottom of the screen are ok but I have to find another place for my F1 addiction.
Notifications are finally working again. Invasive ads, used to be a great app to follow f1 with, but I'll be looking for a replacement now
I really like this app and just moved to the paid version, not to remove ads, instead just to support the developer. It just works well. Sure it gives you the same story from multiple sources - but that's good in my book. It's interesting to get more than 1 view of the world. Maybe the UI could be fancier but I personally value function over form and this app does exactly what others fail to achieve.
I've had this on phone for the last few years and it's one of two 'go to' F1 apps I regularly use. A good set of news sources and always up to date. All of that should make it an easy five stars, but recently the ads have become annoying. I understand the need for them, but now pressing the back button won't exit them, you have to wait until the countdown lets you out.... No! Sort it or it gets dropped more stars.
This is the best app an F1 fan can have to stay on top of the news of F1. The developer updates frequently to keep the standings and schedule up to date. My favorite feature is the "countdown" to the next practice, qualy, or race. I purchased the app after using it for a while to remove the ads. Not because they were obnoxious, but because I wanted to pay for a very useful product.
Clear, concise app that brings together a wide range of F1 feeds together - new stories, articles all there and the app layout makes it easy to navigate around. It loads quickly and a simple app that does what it should! Perfect for any F1 fan like me! Additionally has features like driver standings, countdown timer too.
It used to be a very good app, but with this kind of ad I have no choice as to uninstall this app.
Used this for years, very handy. Not only gives news reports from different websites but also a countdown for the next session; practice, qually, race. It's recently added adverts that pop up every now and then but it's that much of a issue for me.
Excellent app for aggregating F1 news. It's quick and displays the articles clearly. Great way to keep up with all the news from different sources. Knocked one ⭐ off as it would be useful to add new feeds.
They can't be bothered to post correct start times for events. They can be sure banner ads blast audio at full volume but can't update qualy start times. Used to love it but after the banner ads making noise updates and the refusal to update things that matter such as start times, I would give it 0 stars if I could. Complete garbage from what used to be a terrific app.
You might want to check your ad setup. Some won't respond to the X. Have to shut down and restart I've since added a star 6-2-21 cause ads no longer are a problem. Servers have been down for 36 hours,website comes up 403 forbidden. Is the app down for the count?
Considering the app was free, I was happy to put up with the small annoying adds at the bottom of the page but now with your full page adds (In addition to the other adds) it turns this little handy app to a useless app. My advice to anyone is to remove it and find an alternative F1 feed that offers more info and news feeds that don't freeze on your phone every other time. It's a shame that it got to this.
Since a phone upgrade(Huawei Y5) the app runs faultlessly! All video's in all stories work, even in smart mode. Only small complaint is the false scam ads selling products supposedly made and owned by celebrities which have nothing to do with the product in any way whatsoever(something to take up with Google?) and the extra ads popping up when editing stories are overkill. But kudo's for getting the app running better in general! If you can get rid of the scam ads it's be perfect.
Since the latest update it has been consistently very slow to load on any of my devices and both on WiFi or data. It's so slow to load that it's annoying.
A simple well laid out app that provides most of the stories and information regarding the up coming races, including count down timer, calender and drivers info. It would be nice to see a few more media contributors on there, to make the scope broader, and perhaps the extension of a forum like comments section for those with the app. Aside from that it's great.
Simple & straightforward a good app for those who could use it. this saves me so much time and no BS, just a fee to remove ads and the dev is active, so this is the best option for F1 readers. hopefully more customization in the future. happy to purchase this and would again. much time saved already!
Best F1 app I've found. Only one annoying publication called PitPass that don't shrink their page size for mobile us. I just don't read their articles. Other than that, perfect. Not too keen on new pop up ads but easily and quickly binned off.
I love this app, with the ever increasing disappearance of uk TV coverage of F1 this app has become vital BUT smartview has become very unstable for me.....it just will not show the article for me no matter what i pick, i have tried the usual fixes but nothing helps. is it just me?
This is the only F1 app that I use. Frequent updates to resolve any reported bugs and to also make improvements. There are ads but they aren't intrusive. Thanks for keeping it updated and making it a great app!
it was 5 stars until the latest yar upgrade, where you get adverts almost everytime you go back from one news to another. It also switches off the music player. So annoying, please fix it
F1 broadcast coverage in the USA is dreadful, with tv qualifying even sometimes moved over to 4th tier cable/satellite networks like espnnews that relatively few people have access to, advertising on top of live pre- and 5 minutes of post race commentary, and radio feeds blocked unless you establish your own offshore vpn. This is a nice cross section of news, updated very frequently, and much appreciated. F1reader serves as my almost-live feed. Functionality is good for me.
i too have no problem with the small ads across the bottom. but a full screen ad each tim you hit the back button is ridiculous. Otherwise a good app.
Great app. As an F1 fan, I can keep current with all news and gossip. Additionally, it does not have any processor/battery drain issues like some other apps.
Unbiased user opinion: I've used this app for a number of years now and it is the best out there. However, I will say that starting this month (Jan 2019), I started seeing ads after each article that I read. Easy to get of them but annoying nonetheless.
Good F1 App. Always something interesting to read.
This is the best app for F1 fans, and I can tell that the author is an F1 fan himself: eg. it sends pushes about the results of the race but doesn't reveal the winner in the push unless you click on it, so if you weren't able to watch online it will not spoil anything. It sends important news about F1 as pushes, so you always stay up to date. Definitely recommend to everyone!
Good settings possibilities. Since recently, too many adds in between articles which you cannot skip for 5 seconds. Ruins reading pleasure. Removed app because of it.
Freader1 gives me just what I need to keep up with what's happening in F1 with short sharp reports on who said, or did, whatever. A lot of it is just someone's opinion, often baseless, but overall we get the picture.
It's a cool idea to bring all F1 based articles under one roof. Makes my life much easier to be in touch with the current events. A small improvement would be to allow us to select more than five person/topic of interest. Five seems too restrictive. Thank you for the app!
