Great Way to Stay Updated
SmartNews is a good app for keeping up with the latest news. The interface is clean, articles load quickly, and it's easy to browse different topics. I would like to see even more personalization options, but overall it's a reliable app for staying informed every day.
Biased News
This was advertised as finally a neutral option for news. It’s as biased as the rest are. I downloaded it to get fetch points. But it’s an app with the clear intent of slamming Trump and conservatives.
Too Much Click Bait
Some of it’s articles are good, but many are biased, and a lot is click bait. For example, today, the article that keeps popping up about Phil Collins being summoned to say goodbye due to his health, then you open it, and this happened in 2024. Do you need clicks so bad you have to use misleading headlines?

Articles appearing for weeks and months after EVENT AS “BREAKING NEWS!” Not what I NEED.
As BREAKING NEWS!!! But IT IS The same EVENT appears for 4 days in a row with a time stamp of 4 hours ago. Not updated or modified in any way. Is this intentional manipulation of the news or an attempt to sway your followers? WTF
Sudden Far Right Emphasis
SmartNews used to post articles from legitimate non-partisan sources. Suddenly overwhelmed with articles from NewsMax, Fox, Washington Examiner, Just the News” and other MAGA sources.
