Pros and cons of CityNews app for iPhone and iPad

CityNews app good for

Hey folks when I click on the latest traffic report my app crashes. iPhone 6 with up to date software. Great app otherwise.
Would love to be able to submit codes and enter contests through the app. Otherwise I enjoy the app. Dont know what everyone is referring to about it not working with Bell. Im bell and it works fine for me.
I couldnt have hoped for a more jam-packed display of advertisements! Just when I was beginning to look forward to a refresher of community and world news, I was quickly taken by another national, non-personal, ad that kept me from considering the state of today. If I could suggest, what might make this more fantastic, would be a nice cookie or two hidden within the app that can watch what I do on my phone and then really hammer home with some directly personal ads! Hopefully with the next update, Rogers can figure out another way to make living even worse for all of us.

Some bad moments

Im trying to get the latest traffic report and I have to look at a Cityline ad for 10 seconds. Pain in the rear while Im in a hurry.
This version doesnt work while streaming the news on the iPod touch
What have you done? The latest update made the print too large. The words extend past the edge of my iPad, off the page and no way to make it smaller or shrink page to make it fit. Unreadable now. Too bad. I liked this app but its useless to me now. Ill give them a month to correct the problem or will delete the app. Why did you have to ruin a good thing?
I dont like that whenever you start this app it turns off any music or podcast that you might be listening to
Downloaded and deleted within minutes. Too many Pop-Ups for advertisements and when I accessed the traffic the app crashes every time. Brutal. Dont waste the space on your phone!!!
You know an app is bad if you feel the need to warn people about it. Not only does it shutdown every other minute but there is roughly a 15 or 20 minute delay. I dont know how you can mess up a radio app so badly.
