Ratings and reviews

The articles are written with a biased perspective that is hard to miss. They toss in unnecessary adjectives when describing a topic that the writer feels needs their own personal commentary added to the narrative. I was willing to overlook that quirk but I'm going to uninstall this app because they recently updated their software to include advertisements that you can't easily stop, just to get back to the freakin' news! This app is history.

I am on several news platforms and have accounts with each one. I enjoy the "Opera Newsbreak" in particular because of the way the information is laid out. It's very convenient and I don't get lost where I am going with the article. I've also noticed and had a major problem with the articles themselves concerning the content. Some stories have no common sense applied to them and that's very frustrating as a reader that is critical of truth, context and content. Not with Opera Newsbreak!

I give it 4 out of 5 stars. It's got a nice layout that's easy to navigate. One thing that is a plus if the ability to download and read the news offline which I find especially helpful as sometimes I am in areas that has a week internet connection so this is helpful as I can download and read the news when I am in these areas. Thank you to the developers... It's above average in performance and definitely worth downloading.
