The average rating is misleading as it appears to be based on some older versions of the app. It's short on customizations but it's actually a stable, very clean app that appears to work like it's supposed to. And you really can't beat Scripps for neutrality. Would like to see a future option to set a location for localized news. Also an ability to tailor notifications to specific news categories.

After install it said it was for an older android. It starts up but won't play anything selected just a blank screen and gets stuck there, have to force close it. Looks like Newsy app needs to be updated to catch up to the newer version android. Best to stay with an news app that has an active developer. No sense keeping it installed. It was last updated 4 years ago. What a shame.

Broken. The feed loads fine but if I click on a headine to open and read a story it often closes the app (or sends it to the background). Android 12. I've force quit, cleared cache and data, uninstalled and reinstalled, then rebooted and still the same problem. Used to work great until maybe a month ago. I'd rate it 5 stars if it weren't broken. I like that it requires no permissions.
