Absolutely brilliant, though I wish they'd add a section for hyper local news for my city. Some more categories would be nice too. But even without that, 5 stars without a doubt.

love the idea and the way app works, but a suggestion that it would be much better if there's categories to select from and countries also as a priority for selection..

Hi Avnish! Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. Our team is constantly fine-tuning our algorithm to surface a balance of local and global news. It might not be perfect now, but we're always improving and your feed will keep getting better :)

1 star only for not disclosing that an email address is required to look at the app. why on earth an email address is required just to look at a news app is beyond me. uninstalled.

Hi Michael! The app uses your email address as a unique identifier to remember your preferences and country (to serve you local news!). But hey, we hear you, anonymous reading is coming to Android very soon. Hope that wins you back :)
