News360

Comfortable news application that adapts to your preferences. News360 obediently gives out only the news that you like.

pros

Minuses

Newsy

Newsy has been analyzing world news for six years and creating short and intelligible reports based on them for those who can't stand reading long texts. By launching the application, you will receive portions of video news from cute announcers non-stop. Of course, there is no usual and sweet-looking news from Russia here, with the exception of major events such as the entry of troops into the Crimea. But this is a good way to get a rough idea of ​​what is happening in the world and how he, in turn, perceives what is happening in our country.

pros

Excellent video quality, which almost does not freeze and does not make you wait for the loading bar to crawl to the end.

Viewing each news block does not take more than a couple of minutes.

All news is conveniently illustrated with videos, graphics and newspaper clippings, which increase the digestibility of the material.

Sources include The New York Times, The Guardian, Fox News Channel and other major media outlets.

Minuses

News cannot be selected or ranked.

To view the news you need an internet connection - they cannot be downloaded in batches for delayed viewing.

NowThis News

Reading multi-volume news items requires a lot of attention and a lot of free time. But everyone will find time for a short video. The resourceful editors of this application process all the news of the world into short clips. Unlike Newsy, here the news is presented in a more playful way and often consists of funny viral videos.

pros
