Ads/Videos still auto play!!!

I anxiously waited for a new update hoping the developers read the reviews and stopped the auto play videos but they havent. It was bad enough you couldnt watch a video without watching an ad but now you cant even read the story without being forced to watch the ad, even if your phone is on silent. I catch the news in the mornings on my phone because its quiet!!! With the auto play I miss half the stories because I cant open the ones with videos, I have to google the headlines and read the story from other news sites, big waste of time!! I hate to delete because I used to love this app but its pretty useless to me now
