MacDailyNews. Where Mac News Comes First.
Pros and cons of MacDailyNews app for iPhone and iPad
MacDailyNews app good for
This isnt a terrible powerful or interesting app, but it fufills a simple promise of the utility of push notifications. I check MacDailyNews obsessively, and now at a glance I now if its time to load the page. Simple, quick, efficient. The Mac way.
For those thay have in interest in AAPL ,this is a must own app.
This app is one of 4 apps I use on a daily basis. Perfect 3 minute time-filler for those of us with little time! I cant find time to read my monthly magazines, so this app keeps me in touch!!!
For a news site, it has 1) a great layout for a mobile web app, which is easy to read and with inobtrusive ads 2) push notification that keeps you up to date for the Apple news addict 3) and a reliable app that never crashes that makes me forget about the computer version of the site. I wish more news site where like this app.
I use this app daily but the iPad version crashes constantly...I still love MDN but I wish the iPad app worked! The iPhone version works great...
This is a nice app and given time will be great for apple fans to get apple news. The review included here from another user is not correct. As a long time reader of MDN I can say they will delete personal attacks and obvious troll like behavior but they do not delete opinions just because the site does not agree. Please people. Read for yourself. This site is a great Mac news source. I love it. Thanks to MDN for the app. Keep it up.
Some bad moments
It would keep sending Push alerts to my iPhone and each time id get a buzz to inform me that theres a new alert. After a while it gets so annoying! Especially during the night, if youre sleeping and all of a sudden wake up due to an alert about an unimportant Mac story. You really want to throw it away at that moment.
Otherwise, if there was a way to stop the alerts, it wouldve been a good source of Mac/iPhone/iPad news & analysis.
The Mac fanboy editorializing on the Apple news is sometimes funny but more often childish and annoying. Pushing alerts about every small Apple burp and fart can soon get on your nerves.
I like reading MacDaily on my Mac, but the experience is ruined on their iPhone App because every time they post a new article they send an annoying push notification to the iPhone which interrupts whatever you happen to be doing because it makes you think you are getting a text message.
I have to say I like this app. Great stories. Its not the prettiest but hey its about content I guess. The update before this one had me all up in arms and made me remove it cause it really was kinda bad but then a few days later Im back because they fixed the issues in a hurry. Update...back to the drawing board. This app is 50/50 whether it loads on my iPad. Sorry not good enough, I still read on Flipboard.
Absolutely horrible App. Buggy, crashes or simply wont load. Should be pulled from App store
Almost never works, and crashes all the time. Its much faster to just visit the site..
