Latest update · v20.0.1

What the developer says changed (the verdict above weighs this against what reviewers report):

This version improves overall app stability and performance to deliver a faster and more reliable experience.

Recurring themes

Technical Issues negative
Many users report the app frequently crashes, freezes, or closes unexpectedly. Navigation is problematic, with notifications often opening in a browser instead of the app, and content reloading or repeating. Some also note slow loading times and general instability, directly contradicting the developer's claim of improved stability and performance in the latest update.R6R9R15R51
Advertisements negative
A significant number of reviews complain about an overwhelming quantity of ads, often lasting longer than the news content itself. Users find these ads intrusive and disruptive, sometimes playing unwanted audio even when the phone is on silent.R13R19R25R34
Content Freshness & Quality negative
Many users express frustration over repetitive or outdated news articles, with some stories remaining on the app for days or weeks. There are also complaints about a lack of important or recent news, with a focus on less relevant topics.R8R50R85R87
Design & Readability negative
Several users dislike the app's new design, specifically citing issues with small font sizes and white text on white or light backgrounds, making headlines and articles difficult to read.R2R30R33R36
Political Bias negative
A notable portion of reviews accuses Univision Noticias of political bias, favoring liberal viewpoints or manipulating information, particularly concerning Mexican and US politics. Some refer to it as 'fake news'.R1R16R17R20

Who it's for

This app is for Spanish-speaking individuals who want to stay informed on current events, especially those who appreciate Univision's reporting style R7R10. It is not for users who prioritize a smooth, ad-free experience, expect frequently updated news, or are sensitive to perceived political bias R13R19.

Evidence note: The recent reviews skew heavily negative, focusing on technical issues and ads, which contrasts sharply with the lifetime rating of 4.57. This suggests a significant decline in app quality or user satisfaction following recent updates. The developer's notes claiming 'improved overall app stability and performance' are directly contradicted by numerous recent user reports of crashes, freezes, and navigation problems.

  22. [R30] 4/5 · US Títulos en color blanco: Sería interesante saber si el desarrollador utiliza en algún momento esta aplicación y se da cuenta de el tremendo error de los títulos en blanco es muy difícil poder leer el título de una noticia con ese color tan fastidioso te molesta la vista a tal grado que da rabia. Por favor solucionar ese problema es muy buena la app pero mal ese problema
  23. [R33] 1/5 · US Univisión año: I don’t like your new set up and it’s hard to read the headlines when they are written in white and the background is white as well. I don’t like that you don’t have a choice of skipping the commercials, you make me watch something that I’m not interested.
  24. [R36] 2/5 · US Slow loading: After the last update, the home page it takes to lone to load, and most of the titles with those white letters on the pictures, you can read them.
  25. [R8] 4/5 · US Noticias: Mi único comentario ? Repiten mucho algunas noticias ay una noticia de Alejandro Saenz tiene 3 meses antes el noticiero y encuentras lo mismo. ?
  26. [R50] 1/5 · US La ambición del dinero: No sirve era mejor la otra versión tienen todo repetido toda la semana y ponen la misma noticia con diferente título pero nos tenemos que comer todos los comerciales del super tazón solo para ver una noticia o pero somos la cadena mas vista con las benditas novelas si el número uno
  27. [R85] 2/5 · US No actualizan las noticias al momento: Falta actualizar
  28. [R87] 5/5 · US No repitan las noticias tanto !!: Los blogs son repetidos mucho!!
  29. [R1] 2/5 · US Liberal: Es una canal con favoritismo a la información de los liberales. No es un canal como en los años 80’s. Lástima
  30. [R16] 1/5 · US Noticias falsas: No muestran la realidad de las cosas , solo escuchan y no investigan nada
  31. [R17] 1/5 · US Mentirosos y manipuladores!!!: Considero que la verdad deve ser su biblia de edición! Y nos damos cuenta que son medios vendidos y manipuladores. Especialmente lo que tiene que ver con política Mexicana!!
  32. [R20] 1/5 · US Comentario: Las verdades a medias son mentiras, cuánto desearía que hubiera un noticiero que se atreviera a decir la verdad, no importando su partido político. Sería muy beneficioso para todos!!
  33. [R28] 1/5 · US Se come la batería: No uso mi teléfono durante el día por mi trabajo y cuando llegaba a casa mi teléfono está por quedarse sin carga. En la mañana lo tenia al 100% y 12 horas después a 14%. Corre el sin estar abierta y destruye la batería. No la recomiendo.
  34. [R49] 5/5 · US Local California news: I’m mainly interested in local California news and there is no specific segment within this app. that geographically specify locations within your news cast . Awaiting your response thank you Francisco Gallardo
  35. [R119] 1/5 · US The commercials is longer then the new itself: Los comerciales duran más que la noticia Univision debería darle más prioridad a las noticas que a Las propagandas esperar 1 min para ver una noticia de 30 sec es algo irrazonable
  36. [R128] 1/5 · US To much advertisement!!!: If I want to see a video of 25 second first I have to see advertisements for 45-60 second, no make sense. If you do the math, 5 minutes of video -news- = 10 minutes of advertisement. Not good for a busy person.
  37. [R103] 1/5 · US No updates: No updates and the only update that I seen since having the app messed up the way you look at the news. While you’re scrolling up to see what’s new something happens that’ll take you back to the first post. It’s annoying!!
  38. [R88] 1/5 · US News: This site isn’t updated. You can find the same news for 3 days in a raw in the headline and some others important news are not even relevant for univision
  39. [R93] 1/5 · US Más noticias importantes!!!: Nunca ponen noticias nuevas o recientes siempre le dan prioridad a noticias amarillistas de farándula en lugar de poner noticias que en verdad importan 😟😟😟👎👎👎👎
  40. [R138] 1/5 · US Univision: Mientras los otros canales de noticias actualizan en minutos su información , noticias Univisión no. En esta era en donde la atención de las personas solo es de 8 segundos deberían de cambiar las noticias con más frecuencia
