A simple app with a simple purpose: deliver you news without any external or unwanted oversight. We built smashviews because it is painfully difficult to find a news app that operates as smooth as the big guys, but doesn't use you for your data every time you click--all the while running algorithms in the background that decide which articles you see and don't see. Simply put, we don't believe that an algorithm should be deciding this for you, which is why we deliver the news to you unadulterated. You chose the sources and you chose what's important to read or not read. News gets delivered by the minute, as soon as it gets published. Review the feed at the end of the day, or keep track of breaking news as it happens. Missed an article or want to check other sources? Use our search page. See an event break in real time but can't read it in the moment? Save it to your profile and come back later. Download smashviews today! You won't be disappointed. P.S. smashviews is brand new and we will be continuously adding functionality. Features soon to come include more sources, more categories, local sources, custom categories, and a widget. If you have any suggestions or requests, for app functionality or specific local sources, please do not hesitate to reach out to us at support@smashnews.org
