### 3/5 — Cool but needs work

*2024-03-19*

This is a great idea and something that I really want to use, but the fact that I can’t customize the news sites or filter out stories that I’m not interested in makes it much less useful

### 4/5 — Great

*2024-02-22*

Great useful app. I would like to be able to customize the new sites that I can see. That freedom would be great. Also, a tab for politics. 

All major outlets should be used or have the option to see or not see.

### 5/5 — Great little app to keep yourself informed of the news!

*2024-02-21*

Takes up very little space, and is very customizable! Well done! Fits great in my workspace on my apple Vision Pro. Enjoy scrolling through the various headlines and clicking those that I’m interested in and having it bring up a browser with the full story.

### 2/5 — Needs more functionality

*2024-02-20*

Add the option to scroll vertically
Add the ability to put in any RSS feed 
 Then I might actually use this otherwise I just wasted three bucks

### 2/5 — Needs more customization

*2024-02-19*

It does as advertised, but you don’t have much control over the appearance of the news ticker. My biggest gripe is that there’s no way to had the category selector at the bottom. Ideally the news ticker would be fairly minimalist but currently the window is very large with a lot of wasted space.

### 5/5 — Simple but great

*2024-02-18*

I never thought I’d want a news ticker to constantly work screens, but here we are—and I love it.

This is a simple and small app, but when you place it nearby it makes staying atop of the latest news a breeze. I’ve used the app for about an hour today and already discovered a number of events and news items I otherwise likely would have missed.

Thank you for making this app for Vision Pro!

### 2/5 — Good idea subject selector completely doesn’t work

*2024-02-16*

I love the idea of this  however, the topic selector at the bottom simplupdoesn’t work, and will only select business, but will never show me just business news

### 5/5 — Works well, more customization needed

*2024-02-15*

Works exactly as advertised. Wish there was more customization like scrolling even slower. It can be a bit distracting.

### 5/5 — Simple, convenient and useful

*2024-02-14*

This app does exactly what it promises. It is simple convenient and useful.

### 5/5 — Simple yet great idea

*2024-02-14*

Well executed, show case what a simple and native Vision Pro application can be.
