There are a ton of sites out there that deliver the news and keeping track of them all can be hard to do. In this list, we’ll talk about the best news apps for Android to help you stay organized, stay in the loop, and find the news you want. We want to avoid promoting any specific news outlet. Thus, most of these news apps allow you to source multiple places at once!
FREEDLY
Price: Free
Feedly is one of the most popular news apps out there. It's an RSS reader. That means you can pull from a variety of sites and sources. The goal is to build your own news network from places that you trust. It comes with integration with Facebook, IFTTT, Twitter, Evernote, OneNote, Pinterest, LinkedIn, and others. Additionally, you can access your feed on your mobile phone or on your computer with their website. It's a rock solid option. The app and service is totally free to use as well.
Flipboard is another one of the more popular news apps. It works a lot like Feedly. You can create a custom feed with your favorite news sources, sites, and other places. Flipboard differs from Feedly by being a little more flashy. It includes fun animations, large images, and a UI that gives it the appearance of a digital magazine. It also has additional features for things like discovery. It's a rock solid app. You can get it and use it for free.
The Google app is an excellent source of news. The app provides you with a decent feed. You can see things like the weather, news articles related to your interests, and other useful information. Google's voice search is there as is Google Assistant. Between all of those things, there isn't much that this app can't do. The only downside is the app uses your search history to determine your interests. Thus, if you search for something you don't really care about for some reason, the app will think you like it. It's fixable, but it can be annoying as well. The app and all of its services are free.
Inoreader is one of the up and coming news apps. It works a lot like Feedly. You get a news reader that you can customize to your tastes. It includes 28 pre-made topics for those who don't want to dig and find their own sources. The app features offline support, a decent selection of topics, and it'll track what you read. It's not as in-depth as something like Feedly. However, it's a good alternative for those who don't want to do as much work setting their feed up. It's completely free to use.
News Republic fancies itself as the cure for infobesity. It's a news aggregate app. It sources news from over 2,500 news sources and growing. You tell the app the kinds of stuff you like to read. The app then uses its sources to give you a feed of news that isn't as fatiguing to your brain as many others. The app also includes trending news, a daily digest to show you the biggest news of the day, and you can customize your experience as you go. It takes a while to learn your tastes. However, it's one of the great news apps once it does. It's free to use or you can subscribe for $2.99 per year to remove ads.
