A fully customizable news app where I select and choose what I prefer to view and read. Great for viewing your favorite college newspapers and many others all across the country! Can't wait to utilize the #Fantasy Sports interest tab during the season so all of my research articles are organized to one app!

Sleek and attractive news app that offers simple, non-crowded navigation. I really enjoy their "Interest" feature that allows me to create a focus on articles that I'm interested in. I also like that it has digital content for many university and local papers. Always seems to be expanding their publisher catalog as well.
