Ratings and Reviews
The best one out there!!
When Google discontinued its newsreader I downloaded a ton of others trying to find one with a similar interface. This one is almost exactly like the old Google app but with more functionality. I liked it so much I paid for the premium service level even though I don't really need it.
Huh? Brave has better news feed!
I must be missing something. You must sign up BEFORE access to the platform. Once on "news page" most if not all are PAYSITES. There's little to nothing in any category. Most sites being mindless fluff. I had access to three articles. Yet their advertisement for subscription upgrade worked smoothly. None of the chosen categories showed up at all. No way to add links despite banner proclamation? You would think the SPONSORED SITES worked. A workaround of deceptive claim of not collecting "data". I do not believe the suspiciously positive ratings on these apps. Especially, those with unreasonable subscription fees. Easily recognized Dark Patterns throughout. An informed society, protects us all. Please consider BEFORE giving out your information. Or, wasting time and money.
Functionality is kind of nuts?
WHY do I have to tap twice on add feed, once to collapse the keyboard and once for it to actually search? HOW can I make it give me more than five suggestions? UI is either not enough space in the list so it feels like nine stories are really one… or ACRES of space in the card layout, scrolling past a mile of empty space to see like 6 stories. I paid for this thing and I really want to like it; it’s my fourth feed trial this week and it does some things really well, but… some frustrations. Anyway, thanks for not collecting identifier data and look forward to updates.
