About this app

Focus Taiwan’s free news app is the top source of English-language coverage of all things Taiwan, from breaking news to politics, business, technology, sports, culture and much more.

The updated app maintains a similar look to the Focus Taiwan website, but also has a "Media" section, which includes a playlist of the latest 30 news stories in audio and video formats.

In addition to scrolling up and down to read articles and lists of news headlines, mobile device users can also swipe right or left to browse different news categories and articles.

The updated app allows users to bookmark articles and videos in the new "My Stories" feature which can be found in the "Menu" section.

Users will be able to choose the font size and layout of the page to suit their reading habits from the "Menu" section and are welcome to leave reviews or contact Focus Taiwan with feedback.

Ratings and reviews

Simple, Crisp, no distractions, decent English News app for Taiwan. Highly Recommended! please introduce dark mode.

This used to be a great app to keep up with Taiwan news. Now the articles cannot be read because a big black rectangular box covers the articles up so they are not readable. There must have been a bad update. I hope they get this fixed! Also, they provide an email address to let them know about issues, but it's not working.

This app, supposedly focusing on Taiwan, doesn't supply relevant news for people actually living in Taiwan. New laws going into effect, aside from COVID-19 related ones, aren't even mentioned! What is the point of this app if I can't depend on it for relevant news. For example, the legal smoking age went up to 20 on March 22, yet it wasn't even mentioned.
