User reviews

Good but too US-Centric

I really like the layout and concept of this app. It’s very good for gathering news from a variety of sources, summarising, and giving insight. However, the US-centric news is locked to "always on" and tends to dominate the feed.

iPhone Duo support

I really enjoyed using this app, and I love to use the various features that help me to understand news articles.

I wonder when can we expect an update for iPhone Duo?

Thanks for your amazing service.

Hidden Gems

This app is a real discovery! Incredibly beautiful and functional!

Good News But PTW

It’s a great news site, I just hate paying for subscriptions and yeah

“Unable to load headlines” FIX IT!

Please fix your widget soon. It’s so annoying not having our daily news on my home feed for quick access. “Unable to load headlines” Otherwise this is the best news app i have ever used. Just fix your widget part and you are again back in action.
