*2026-04-01, version 7.3.7*

Keep scrolling to see news in short. Just like the name of the app. 
I would like to see separate tabs for regions like North, South, East, West and Central. Thanks

### 1/5 — Cheap 2rs tactics by developer

*2026-03-30, version 7.3.6*

Cheap tactics of not opening the same news article from notification and instead making you go through other news and ads to gain ad revenue. Finally got rid of this trash. Better to stick with TOI, NDTV, etc.

### 5/5 — V good

V good

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Was genuine years ago, but biased now

*2026-08-22, version 7.4.14*

Was genuinely best goto news app back in the day, but it started taking sides and is biased now. Guess the app got sold out for big money.

### 1/5 — Biased reporting

*2026-07-18*

I have been using this app for more than a decade almost immediately after it came out, I had personally recommended this to many of my friends. Initially, it used to be just a concise summary of the news headlines with completely unbiased reporting. Recently, it inserts news which has an angle and presents it with an agenda. Case in point being today's “insights” section supporting Argentina and calling them a victim of trolling, as compared to them actually being the perpetrators. Insights is supposed to present only facts completely devoid of any emotions or bias but here the facts have been compiled just to argue that it’s not only Argentina is wrong there are others getting similar benefits. While others might have benefited once or twice, Argentina seems to always be on the favorable side in every game.  If you have team members who are so passionate about a certain team that they forget their basic journalistic integrity, then you should start an opinion section like other newspapers have. Present these things in an opinion section, but not in the insight section or in the news section. This completely compromises the integrity of the platform, and this is not the standalone instance. In many of the political items reported, it has been observed that they are biased and presented with a certain angle.

### 1/5 — Total biased and fake news

*2026-07-17, version 7.4.12*

The format of showings news is good , but the content is totally anti-govt ,the  app is full of  propaganda driven and fake news.

### 1/5 — Rigged

*2026-07-14, version 7.4.12*

This app fears to cover the topics that can infuriate the present indian government which makes me think if this is also sold out like the mainstream media in India.

### 1/5 — Need mobile number

*2026-05-27, version 7.4.0*

Accepts only India phone number which is a bummer

### 1/5 — Godi Média

*2026-05-20, version 7.3.15*

I’ve been using this app for 2 years slowly it started to became like godi media only supportive post and shorts of the BJP , don’t trust this app it lost it’s credibility

### 1/5 — Too much nagging about participating in Daily Ritual Streak

*2026-05-17, version 7.3.15*

I don't want to participate in the daily ritual streak and don't want notifications for it. Please refrain from sending unsolicited notifications. I'm receiving two notifications for this daily ritual everyday. I only want news notifications, and those should be from the selected topics. Also, the in-app feedback system is very poor. I posted the same feedback on 7th May, and today, 17th May, it is still under review, and there has been no update from the team since day 1.

### 1/5 — Propaganda and hatred spreader

*2026-04-29, version 7.3.9*

The app is good and efficient but always highlights us vs them issues and more like a mouth piece of BJ party. Too much hate spreading news.

### 1/5 — iPhone App needs stability

*2026-04-12, version 7.3.7*

Application keeps crashing and also it’s not as smooth as android app that I use. Needs a lot of work done.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t open the intended news

*2026-04-01, version 7.3.7*

Whenever I tap a nee from notification, 50% of the time it doesn’t open completely different news. And since the news i wanted is gone from the notification too, there’s no way to look for it in the app. Fix the bug
