Ratings and Reviews

Confusing interface

I’m fairly technical and good at figuring out applications. But I am totally confounded as to how to follow additional content after the initial selection. I can see what I’m following and I can see the articles but I see no place to go in and follow additional sources.

Hi. Tanks for taking the time to download and user our app.

You can find additional content in the "Discover" tab. There you will find the most relevant news in your language or if you prefer, you can perform a particular search filtering by city, country or language and discover new sources of information.

We keep working to improve the app :)

Over-promises, under-delivers

I was excited to find this news aggregator because I’m so tired of all the click-bait in others. But after adding my chosen content providers, the experience fell apart.

1. It doesn’t refresh, so your old content hangs around. Stories should disappear once read.
2. Chosen sources disappear. Poof - all gone.
3. Once you’ve chosen sources, it’s a mystery how you might add more.
4. If you delete the app and start moving around an app now they they do over, you can have a decent experience again. Once.

Great concept. Needs a LOT of work to be useful and deliver on its promise. I’ll be watching, and hoping.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We're sorry to hear that you're experiencing issues with new articles not updating properly. We have been working hard to fix this issue and should be solve on the latest version: v 1.6.0. We hope you can give the app another chance and that it exceeds your expectations :).
