Ratings and reviews

It is very good app,, but I need the zoom in and out function added in this app ,,, because am experiencing a weak vision

Just 1 BBC News app with multi language choice (in settings) will be better! Adding languages options within the UK and Perhaps better still the English BBC World News app could be a better idea. If a UK person was to travel to France or Ireland say they need access to World News App that do exist but geolocation blocked to British ISPs

Notifications don't work.
