About this app

Get all your news in one place on an eye-opening platform that shows you the bias, reliability and ownership of every source you read. Cut through the noise and escape media echo chambers with Ground News.

Ground News is the largest news aggregator in the world with over 50K news sources and 60K articles added daily. But we aren’t a typical news aggregator, throwing hundreds of headlines at you that barely skim the surface. Ground frees people from algorithmic restraints, illuminates blindspots and makes media bias explicit with our one-of-a-kind media analysis features.

> Avoid manipulative algorithms
> Spot media bias
> Discover news Blindspots
> Check the reliability of sources
> See who owns the news you consume

Read daily breaking stories from sources around the world, in real time. Like a modern day newspaper, we show you diverse stories instead of algorithm-driven content that can limit your worldview. News coverage is rarely unbiased, so we give you as much context as possible so you can come to your own conclusions. Compare coverage on partisan topics like politics, and elections.

Enjoy our free features, or subscribe for in-depth analysis that will transform the way you look at news.

has full bias coverage and all the important headlines, the free version works very well (no ads, just less features) but I got the $10 yrly subscription and love it. it also doesn't encourage "the scroll" like other apps; you get on, you read what's happening today and thats it, there's the bottom of the page. it makes me feel like I'm not wasting time while also staying informed. 11/10, 6 stars if I could

I thought I would enjoy a right, left, or center based news app, this one is hard to navigate, the ads and articles they push to you are mostly subscription based unless you pay for "their" subscription. The overridden ads on every article are annoying and having it asking me every time I enter to subscribe is quite unnerving. I'll be moving on to my browser where I can control the ads I see, or never see, and I can pick which sites I want. Trying to push notifications on my phone🤦 is another -

Hi Jeremiah, we're sorry to hear about your experience. I can confirm we only send push notifications to your device if you have them turned on. You can also use our external browser to improve your experience with any external sources' ads. I hope this helps!

Claims to be transparent about the news but they sure aren't transparent about their subscription costs. You won't find the cost in the app, you have to go to the site to find out there are three tiers, and if you accept the trial, you're on the hook for the middle tier at $29.99/year. The cost doesn't bother me but not putting the subscription costs is a deal breaker.
