Sub optimal, more useless, don’t waste your time
Hi all, dropped this app from my viewing. Tired of 15 articles telling me the best ISP in regional USA. tired of opinion and entertainment pieces being put forward or passed off as actual news. Tired of click bait news headlines. Tired of best prices for sales events in USA. Mmmm maybe your AI doesn’t pick up that there is a difference between AUST & USA

I don't use social media in any form and this was a reasonable media cross section. To much woke leftist news now which goes unchallenged as many like myself only monitor this site and can’t give any written input. You do need a WHO CARES (WC) section for the social media queens as they are all about themselves. As we all know now Facebook etc are manipulated by outside influences so it’s not a moderator. Nothings changed since I wrote this review probably a year ago. Open up the responses without a so called moderator and you will have a better product. Not much to add as nothing has changed apart from more sites are requesting you pay per view, bit like a peep show. To many trying to sell news.
Since writing this revue I have deleted this news app as it has become highly censored and the comments section deleted. Woke fascists at work here.
BE VERY CAREFUL AS THE SO CALLED MODERATOR COULD BE ANY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD.

Downloading, tested, now deleting.
Some reviewers seem to like the app., however it’s not for me. Just nothing there I find appealing.
App aggregates from other news sources.
Articles aren’t refreshed very often (at the time of writing there are articles that are days old), and there is a noticeable lack of variety for the sources, with most, that I’ve seen, relying heavily on 2~3 Australian sources, and there only so many articles originating from the Geelong Advertiser I can go through without being lady feeling brain dead.
So I shall delete this app and continue to use my preferred news apps, where one can gain broader news across a wider range of topics.

Aussies need
You probably have no idea of how much joy you’ve brought into my life! I was born in Cottesloe Wa pin 1937 and came to US in 1958 Received a cellphone from my daughter who lives in Rhode Island and she told me Mum you can get anywhere in the world and find out anything! It’s been almost 20 years since I got home and all of a sudden I find Aussie News I’m home again (once an Aussie always an Aussie)! So you have brought such joy to me, thanks so much Goodnight and G’Day Mate much love Aline in Virginia

Thanks for the great review Aline! So glad you are able to reconnect to home through our app.
Good Australian coverage
Finally an Australian news app that isn't mainly sport stories. Good mix of news and topics and I like how it shows you which news you have read and allows you to comment with the rating emoticons.
Used to be pretty darn good for overseas Aussies. Last update ruined that.
Used to be great. Of course they decided to update it and add pop up ads. Too bad, I will stop using it and delete.
Response from developer
We are glad you enjoyed our app! Though we need to run ads to keep the app free, we do offer an affordable ad free option. If you find a news outlet that is free and doesn't run ads please let us know, we have questions...
Good, but…
The icon selection needs an update. Often, a choice of response results in the count working erratically. The count will continue to decrease if you change your mind (eg; deselecting - going to another choice - changing mind and re-electing original choice will cause counter to go down (never up)). Also icon selection needs updating to add more accurate responses (as the available choices often do not permit an accurate response - this results in inaccurate outliers that result in the App providing a false view of public opinion- and that is the ultimate objective of the program, isn’t it!!). Try “propaganda” and “disgusting” because we are witnessing cause driven manufactured news articles and they need to be called to account.

Alternative News Source
Aussi News provides a broad range of news coverage generally unknown to mainstream readers. It complements other headline news style aps such as the ABC and The Age.
GOOD, CLEAN HONEST NEWS
I enjoy reading the news of what’s happening in Australia. The presentation appears to be honest and not political per se. Even though the political theater is typical political play. Join the world political stage!
