  • The Best News App I’ve Ever Used

    About 6 months ago, I was having breakfast with a work supervisor and I started asking him what needs sources he goes to daily in order to stay up to date on the most important things going on in the world. Our job field somewhat requires us to have a constant working knowledge of world events. He told me that most days he would simply read through Roca’s daily IG because it was hitting every major news story he needed to know anyway. As a result I started doing the same and it’s massively paid off! This is hands down one of the top sources of news around, and it’s method of delivery has made it my daily go-to. I can’t recommend this company enough!

    Thanks Roca Team!
  • The News App We’ve Been Waiting For!

    As a 24 year old I’m so excited for Roca and what they can do for society! We’ve likely all been a part of a conversation online or inperson that involved people talking about “The Media” and the bias and corruption that we’re all subject to as our primary sources for news.

    From everything I’ve seen from them over the last couple years on Instagram, I truly believe they doing what they promised to do from the start (report the facts without sharing political bias or opinions, while also reporting on things that other networks won’t cover).

    Cannot recommend Roca more to anyone looking for a good source of news.
  • Loving this App

    I have been subscribed to both their email notifications and their Instagram account for a couple years now. As a fan, I have been waiting for an app after being a fan of their unbiased news and the way they let the individual be the judged of what they read, hear, and follow. The way RocaNews delivers their information is in a modern style of journalism by shortening everything up and using digestible words which leads to more engaging readers. Now I may be biased myself when it comes to this app, but RocaNews delivers the facts and the daily coverage of events throughout the days, weeks, years, and decades making it amusing to the reader.
  • The Wait is Over! (And entirely worth it)

    I’ve been following Roca for about two years now and I’ve always loved their work. Having been in anticipation of release of this app for the past several months, I am so so so pleased with how it turned out. I never even write app reviews but this is one I’m absolutely stoked to share.

    The app is intuitive once you open it, easy to use and rich in content, as well as information and historical facts. It’s everything I could’ve wanted for it and more. It does utilize this Duolingo-esque exp system which is used to customize your profile and unlock more history info (not tied to the plentiful current events news that they provide). The system does not require money, you just learn and you get further in. I adore it and cannot rate this app, nor its parent company, high enough
  • A lot better than every other news app

    I’ve been following you all on insta & tiktok for a while now & i’ve been wondering when you’d make an app. this app is different than other news apps, and i haven’t been reading the news for a while bc it’s not fun, but now that you all have an app, i’ve started to get into the news again, thank you for that! not only do you all share UNBIASED news, you all also make it enjoyable, whether there’s questions about the story, polls to get your opinion on a certain story, etc. while you’re reading a news story, which i also like. every news outlet out there is either biased or.. well.. biased lol and this definitely is NOT biased. i like how theres levels and you can gain XP by reading stories which helps you level up, it’s a great way to connect with your audience, and i don’t think that other news apps do that. overall, i think this is a great app and that everyone should download it, no matter what political party they’re for or what opinions they have on certain things. if you want to read unbiased news, you should get this app.
  • Great News App

    Everyday it posts 8 new stories at midnight that are short and to the point. The stories also include polls and some fun trivia. There’s more stuff to do on the app that I haven’t done yet. But my only complaint so far is that I was reading an story at 11:58PM and once midnight hit, the app updated, and kicked me out of the story. I now can’t find the story I was reading and am kinda disappointed. Shouldn’t be hard to fix that though, and I imagine that bug won’t stay for very long

    Edit: I figured out that you can read articles from the past 7 days by clicking on the calendar on the top right. There are no flaws with this news app that I can find. It doesn’t even have any ads
  • Great fun way to learn news

    This app has a great fun way to learn the news with slides and facts. It is a balanced point of you, with both sides of a story given. There are fun facts about history, as well as current political, and news stories. The app provides ways to get points for reading stories, which help encourage you to read more. There are no advertisements seen on the app at this time. I wonder how they will continue to make money and suspect that in the future, we may see more ads or request for donations. They are doing a great job and highly recommend downloading the app.
  • FINALLY

    An app that is just news, keeps you updated, and makes it fun. No need to go to mainstream media, clawing through useless articles written by folks who want their opinion heard. ROCA just gives you the stories, and actually asks for YOUR opinion through polls. It’s no wonder big tech has tried to block the release of this app, it’s counter-cultural, different, and yet, it’s the way that news SHOULD be. Fox and CNN are the same people wearing different colors. Do yourself a favor and download Roca News, you won’t regret it.
  • The Best News App Ever

    I started following RocaNews back in early 2022 on Instagram. I’ve been a massive fan of they way they’re giving us fun, engaging, and non-boring news and I love how the new app is giving them more freedom than they ever had on Instagram.

    It’s really refreshing to have a “just the facts” news source that you can fully trust. My generation really needed a new way to consume news, and I’m so glad Max, Billy, another Max, and the whole Roca team launched this extremely informative, enjoyable, and uniquely interactive experience of an app.

    Let’s ride this wave together, friends!! 🌊
  • Best app I’ve ever used

    If I had to describe the Roca News app in 1 word, it would have to be “life changing”. Being able to keep up to date with the ongoings of not just my country, but the entire world has allowed me to find a deeper connection to the place that we call Earth. Other news apps simply lack the level of communication and detail that Roca News provides.

    I was losing sleep over the idea of Elton John retiring. Knowing that the man was still trying to continue his career at his old age just makes me so anxious for him. The lack of sleep was really starting to impact both my mental and physical health. Right as I was about to go into yet another sleepless night I checked the Roca News app. Low and behold there was an article about Elton John’s retirement. Now I am able to go to bed peacefully knowing that man is able to relax. Thank you Roca News app for saving my life.
