Why does the Phandroid app sometimes give an error when looking at news?

Sometimes once a day or several times a week, I open the Phandroid app and hit the news button...and get the good 'ol white screen with the "error" box showing up. When this happens I will not be able to view the news for several hours sometimes, then it will inexplicably work again. Seems to be happening more lately. Anyone know if anything can be done about this?

Same here...gets annoying. Plus on the main screen there have been 3 features that have said "coming soon"....and that's been like that for over a year I think. There was also talk at one point about a redesigned/updated app..which I see hasn't happened yet.


Just so you guys know, this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sMSwyLDYsImNvbS5waGFuZHJvaWQuZHJvaWRwcmVzcyJd
Is the phandroid news app now. Development has ceased on the old forum/news app. There will also be a Tapatalk Forum app sometime in near future if I'm not mistaken.

Plus I believe there is plans to make an app that combines the two so you don't need 2 different apps
