just checked mine, works fine. maybe uninstall and reinstall? but reboot after you uninstall and before you reinstall.

Also had periodic problems with it, but to be fair, could say the same for EWN and other local news apps. Sometimes you just have to wait for an update.

iOS is such a small pool here in ZA, so understandable that they probably focus on getting things right 1st on the other OSs...

Huh...no ways...have to disagree there. Not small at all in ZA; much more so older devices

I dont understand why you have a news app installed in the first place?

step 1 set up feedly wiht all the news sites, so you can NOT listen to news from the South aFrican version of the DAily mail (news 24 as a group)
check feedly when you want news, profit.

alternatively, google now, and chrome on Marshmallow can give you breaking news as system based updates if you set it up correctly.

I just honestly do not see the point of having an App for EWN, an App for "news"24, and app for mail and Gaurdian, and app for mybroadband. its just pointless.

feedly for all news (or google now if you are using a good OS)
Taptalk for forum posts.

space saved, spam prevented from in app notifications going on loop (see the other thread about that on news 24 as well...)

True this. Use Feedly for everything else - may as well throw the current events in as well!
