CTV News GO gives you all of the latest and breaking news that you ve come to expect from Canada s number one news organization. All news is organized into easy-to-find categories not only at ...

Generally good Relevant timely and informative although generally quite superficial but then I don t expect to much in depth analysis in this particular medium Editorially a little left for my liking I prefer a balance where I can make informed choices Grammar and spelling well that s another matter To much faith in autocorrect and too little proof reading But nevertheless a good useful newsfeed                 John Krych
Good content but poor design After choosing a news section World Canada etc and reading through that section you have to scroll all the way back to the top to choose another section Also app doesn t work at all if you use a VPN connecetion it thinks there is no Internet connection So if you re trying to protect your info on public wi fi you re out of luck trying to use this app         Sean Alexander
i am having trouble with the internet connection I uninstalled the app and then downloaded it again i still cannot open the app this This is now September 6 and I still get oops no internet connection I downloaded the update and it does not work     Cathy Lewicki
I continue to have issues with internet connectivity The app starts and then I receive a message that there is no internet connection I have reinstalled the app several times It works for a while and then it doesn t     Fred Alaggia
I got the app to get news stories and not 30 second commercials before I can view the actual story I am giving it up don t have the time to watch 30 second commercials before each news story that I wish to view         David Bellefontaine
Everytime i download the ctv news app it keeps saying that there s no internet connection so i m giving it only one 1 star if you can fix the problem with the app then i will consider downloading it Untill then thank you     SAVANNAH BOUVIER
Not happy there is not a link to the Quiz or the CTV question of the day The old app had one and was a better layout     Tom Kearns
It is frustrating to use I want the news live or at least video Otherwise a newspaper would be cheaper and easier HOW DO I GET THE NEWS     LETA
Well designed news portal Happy they added the auto rotate feature                     Jeff Davidson
Each time I turn off notifications the app turns them back on Very annoying     David Schweig
App is constantly buggy and crashing And why can i not read an article if my internet drops         Tyson Vanherk
I downloaded this app because it advertised a particular news story which turns out to NOT be in the news feed Thanks for nothing     SJ Bannerman
Absolute garbage After installing it claims that I don t have an internet connection     Jason Powell
Every story has annoying advertising so will delete CTV News no reason to have advertised on each story seriously     Frank Maiore
It s a great website it keeps me up to date on all the news because I dont have cable                     Lisa Rulton
Lots of content and you can cast using Google Chromecast                     JP Bonhomme
Gives me everything i need It s a news junkies delite Lol                 Johnny Herman
Local news is good but I can t find other news     Sylvia Beckett
Great app to catch up on the news                 Taren Munro
Cannot detect network connection     w l
Their improvements made it worse The amount of typographical errors blows my mind You can t deselect videos any longer Looks like they let their grade 4 nephew design this app Used to be great but after years of it being my only news app I gave up and get my news elsewhere     Shelagh Binnie
Dont bothering trying to watch a video clip it takes a long time to load then its a commercial first no thanks ctv dont think ive ever watched a video news story on this app as is just to painful to see a commercial before the news story Written stories are ok but far and few for my liking id give this app 1 star but at least i can read a few local stories         John O
Unable to connect to the internet since the last update No longer my go to app for internet news Aprox 4 days after posting this review with a 1 star ratting the application started working No idea why as all other applications connected to the internet with no problem Works fine now                     Clark Johnston
This used to be a decent 4 star app but the 2 0 update is disappointing to say the least Why was the swipe left feature in v1 5 2 removed when reading the news stories Or am I missing something We used to be able to swipe left to go to the next story or right to the previous Now to go to the next article we have to click back to the news menu swipe down to the next article then click select Please bring back this old feature in your next improved update so that we have less clicks not more Also I have very fast internet connection but the stories load slower now The previous version worked fine and I didn t want to update but the developers prevented it from starting forcing the update Change for the sake of change Are any of the App developers reading the reviews The 1 and 2 stars are really starting to pile up On the positive side at least the app is back up and running and the Error Loading Content is now finally fixed and it only took two days         D McD
Definitely not improved This new version sucks It s slow to load chews up data and is not as nicely laid out as before Everthing is jumbled together and now I can get rid of the videos I m extremely disapointed with this update Why did you try to fix something that wasn t broken Now I frequently get the message error loading content try again I m not interested in spending my time reloading multiple times to get this app to work     D Sutherland
I don t mind the look of the new app although I do prefer the groupings in the old one What I find frustrating with the new app is that I can t get through more than one article without the screen changing to say Oops No internet connection detected Try again Cancel This happens every time No matter where I am I am ready to delete the app altogether Disappointed as I prefer CTV news to others     Lillian Crews
The old version of the app worked much better Now it s too hard to find what I m interested in everything is just jumbled together I ve started using apps for other networks instead and I am using this app much less Tonight I couldn t even get the score from the Leafs game using this app even though I have configured my customizations to show me sports news     Patricia Clarke
This new app is junk I had accepted that it s super disorganized vs the old app and is such an inconvenience with the videos I just want to read the articles not be forced to watch a video I also miss being able to organize the cities i was interested in Having said all that now the new app won t even open Continually for 3 days now says Error loading this content try again I have tried resetting my phone the wifi reinstalling the app What a clusterf k of an app     Island Gumby
Terrible Ap does not work at all since last update Tried to reinstall but made no difference Message says there is no internet connection which is clearly not the case as all other aps work fine     Adam
Update Its been about 24 hours since they responded and yes the issue seems to be resolved No crashing or connection issues old comment u003e The quality of the news aside the app itself is only okay It works but can crash or lose connection which just blocks out the article No way i can see to download offline articles or anything Though again the app claims to lose connection and basically shut its self out                 Shayne Daly
News stories entertainment world sports etc are all jumbled together with no sense of order Often you ll see the same story in different formats before finding something new Bring back the individual folders labeled World Canada Local so I can have an easier time finding what interests at that moment I don t need to scroll through a dozen local stories to find something international This makes me feel like I m being deliberately directed or led by the nose Poor upgrade     A Google user
App is the worst Can now only view in landscape Was never the case before Items are presented in random mishmash order Used to be all Atlantic items were together same for all other chosen categories If this is CTV s idea of improvement I ll go back to the CBC news app which I rarely went to before your latest dis improvements I m really disappointed in what CTV has done with their news App My overall rating F     Glen Gallagher
Hasn t worked in days I loved the older format it was reliable for my daily news The new layout is choppy and lacks the same flow What makes it worse now though is that it won t open at all Cannot load content I have deleted and reinstalled but the same issue persists Maybe a different news app would work better     Bryan Gesy
I find the new app extremely lacking in organization and separation of categories of topics When I first downloaded the updated app I had some concerns but gave it some time for me to adapt to the new format Unfortunately my dislike of the app has increased to the point I am now using other news apps more and more and CTV less and less     Dave Rudolph
App works really well so fAr Love the fact there is option to cast Be great to see some finacial news as a category also Can watch the previous days news cast only but I m sure there is a reason for that                 john tomas
It now takes much longer for many stories to open probably because videos are included I prefer to read rather than watch the news in part because watching involves audio which can be distracting to others in the room You can no longer to go to local news for a major city across Canada You can add a city to your local feed but this is not nearly as good as was offered with the previous version of Newsgo Sometimes you just want to see what is happening that day in another major city         Larry Peters
crashes continually on my phone u0026 tablet The last update is a disaster while it worked The old app had a better UI i won t even try an install again until it s fixed work for about a week thdrefuses to load CBC u0026 BBC apps load u0026 run great I ve re installed the app we ll see how stable it works over the next week Thanks for fixing the app     John Hopcraft
terrible update I said I didnt want to see sports yet I still see it It repeats stories over uninstalling Updating review 9th of April CTV is obviously working on the issues as it is getting better and a little easier to navigate I still feel like I m missing some news that I would have picked up with the old format but good to see your working on it                 Kathryn Johnson
I hate the new version I liked that everything was organized into categories but now it is just random stuff I read this app on my commute to and from work and before the update every article had a snippet to read and talked about each news event and maybe had an optional video to watch Now I click on an article and some of them only have a video and no words to read so if I am interested in learning more I have to google what happened I may meed to find another app to use         Andrea G
Ever since the app was last updated all I ever get now is a message saying that there was an error loading the content It will not load anything at all I tried removing the app and re installing it but it still fails to start This used to be a very reliable app however it is now the worst app I have     Jason Lyttle
