Lds News App Reviews

July 2018 Update: Lowered a star because LDS Church News stopped working, and hasn’t worked since May 2018. Hopefully that will get fixed soon (in addition to the bug/suggestions in my April 2018 review and it would be 5 ⭐️ !! This app is a fantastic resource to easily find LDS news in a single application. Navigation is simple and quick to show which sources have been updated. I really like how fast it is. I have one bug/issue and one suggestion. Bug: If you ever try to zoom an image (eg I was looking at the new general Authority chart) the image zooming doesn’t work it skews the image right off the screen. This is on any image I’ve tried to zoom. And when your on a smaller device, you for sure need to zoom a lot. Suggestion for improvement: Have a way that you can bookmark articles that you like and title the bookmarks so you can come back weeks/months later (also it would be nice to bookmark with tags or keywords for searching your bookmarks) Overall great job!!! Thanks!!

I will give this app a 5th star when there is a badge to let me know when new stories are posted. Otherwise it is great.

Have to say I wasn’t expecting this app to be updated and figured it would die with iOS 11, but was surprised to see that it did get updated. Unfortunately all it does is crash upon launch.

What a fun and easy way to keep up with what's going on in the Church.

Thank you for the current update! Simple. Easy. Informative.

The app works, you get access to LDS News etc. I would rather spend $0.99 on just LDS News. The other 2 news sources have a lot of articles from LDS News, making them almost pointless. The LDS Gems are not that great. And the videoes are cheesy. I seem to see the same news articles over and over. I am not sure if that is the app or the news feeds. I would like to see the Church magazines in this app. That would make this worth the price.

Pretty nice attempt. Unfortunately some links don't seem to work, and now this week the KSL radio link (which is the one I used the most) doesn't work.

Great App, however an increasing number of news stories cannot be viewed due to iPhones lack of needed viewing program. ( i assume Flash) The app may become useless if this trend continues. Please find a fix...three stars for now.

Please add UVU news including sports. They are big enough now to have their own category.

This app works perfectly. It brings together LDS-related news from various sources (Deseret News, Church News, BYU sports, etc.) in a very clean, easy-to-use interface. It is customizable so that you can choose which sources you want to appear on your list. Very well done!!

Thanks for making such a great way to access the latest church news, I use it all the time. And the bonus of having the Deseret News stories makes it so much quicker now to scan the other latest news around Utah. The interface seems well thought out and clean and it is nice to not have to leave the app to view the videos. Keep up the good work!

The app opens up the Church News webpage which is impossible to read on a phone. There's a Deseret News mobile app, but not a Church News that could be linked to the LDSNews app? Still, the app is indispensible for current news of the Church from LDS and non-LDS sources. I use it with Google News and Zite, customized for Mormon topics.

This site no longer gives the total news

Very useful, easy dashboard, everything works great.

Simple to use. It is nice to have so many choices. Thanks

This is a great way to receive LDS news. I love being able to open it up and see the inspirational "Daily Gems". This is well worth the price!

I am so impressed with scope of this app and the timely information it contains. I am in awe at what the Church has done through the iPhones and pads/tablets. God lives and Jesus is the Christ.

This app makes it possible to keep up with news, events, and doctrines of the church. We can't all afford the papers nor live where we have access to information. Love the tech that makes it possible.

There is much great information that could be used but you cannot copy a phrase, section or interesting article to use unless you are a Twitter or Facebook user. Given the MANY security and privacy problems with those applications, I do not use either. So I am simply "out of luck" with this app if I want to refer back to an article later. Activating "copy" would help greatly!!!

Hi @Jpete8435, What news is missing? Please write in so we can help with any problems you are seeing. Thanks!

I love how this app covers all the major Mormon/LDS news sources. This app has great potential, I hope to see it grow and be well used. A few suggestions: • The landing page seems a little confusing to me so even though it has icons showing if it's audio, video, or neither. If it was categorized on the landing page as News Video, News Audio, & News Print I think it would help. I guess I'll email more detailed suggestions about this. • In the info section there should be a "button" to send suggestions, not just reviews or to share. The email gets lost to me in the details. • Add a link to the LDSLiving magazine news section.

Please fix the radio streaming. It use to work. Now, nothing when I tap on Fm Sunday sounds.

I must say I like this app allot, it's a one stop shop on LDS news

This app is great! Church and sports news all in one convenient place.

Love the app! Great way to access church-related talks and info AND keep up-to-date with my beloved UTES!!
