NewsFlash™ App Reviews

Great app! Been searching for ever for this !

I have tried many of the RSS aggregator apps and for me, this one is the best. Concise, stable and easy to customize. I would like the ability to customize the titles of the groups or add my own groups to better organize my content. Otherwise, it is awesome! Thanks for creating this app.

Best news app

I have been looking for a good news headline app, good feeds from many sources. Like that pictures are optional, less space, more news. Can choose what sections, what country, what feeds you do/dont want. I have many other news apps but THIS IS THE ONE to go to for headlines. Clean, simple, customizable design. Great designers! So glad I found this!!!

Great news App

Nicely designed ios 7 app and is really fast to fetch news from multiple sources. Can you include India in the list if countries please?

Great app!

This is a great app! I use it multiple times a day. I just upgraded my iphone OS to 7.1 and now Ive started getting ads again in Newsflash even though I paid to remove ads. Hoping for a fix!

One word: Superb

As a huge news junkie, Ive looked for a long time for the perfect news app. Ive finally found it with this. Tons of news sources easily turned on or off, all formatted in a consistent manner, it sifts through repeat items (like all those identical AP and Reuters sourced articles) down to just one, and it has a built in browser to read the full article if you like the summary. It also sorts things into multiple news sections, just like when we used to read physical newspapers... World, Culture, Technology, Politics, Health, etc. It even has a few colour themes - I particularly like the dark theme, which works great at night in bed or on the ride home which wont bother others.

Needs push

Add push notifications. Thank you.

Love it but...

I have had this app for a long time, but NBC feeds are an overbearing pain.

Freezes

I have enjoyed reading News Flash for over a year. Now when I click on an article, it takes me there then freezes. Then I cant get back to he main page. Happens about every day. My iPad is up to date, so dont know why this is happening.

Where is the balance

Even with WSJ WT Fox News you can see editorial bias in the stories selected. Example nothing on Outing of CIA station chief in Afghanistan. Remember Valery Plame. It was everywhere with a special prosecutor appointed almost immediately. Just sayin.

Must Have app!

I dont need other source to keep informed with the latest news. Most topics covered.

News without the flash

I love the clean, no nonsense approach of this news app. Its easy to scroll through headlines with no distractions and quickly find what interests you.

Best news app

I love this news app. Works perfect and always shows me the latest feeds. Would be nice to have a dedicated gaming news section.

Forget it

Why doesnt it display photos or videos in links? Waste of time.

News Hound

Being a working Mom I dont always get s chance to sit down and watch the news. Newsflash keeps me informed on whats going on in the world. I love this app!!

Get LA Times ads out of the feeds!!!

This is downright bothersome - stop supporting s news feed that just wants money!! I am finding a new RRS!!

The app crashes on latest iOS build

In 8.4.1 Too bad I like it a lot!

Too heavy on LA Times

All of a sudden you guys are running LA Times articles like crazy. I feel like youve dropped the ball on what is news. Im going to look for a new source of updated news. You have to have a subscription to the LA Times to read the story.

LA Times Worthless

While the app is quick to get breaking news out and uses a number of news sources, the fact that the LA Times plays a dominate role and now charges for its services detracts from the overall app appeal

Best in group!

First, response to reviews re LA Times you can delete feeds under settings-feeds-(your country)-click on feed. You can also turn off sections. Ive done it a lot. Suggestion for developer - Id like the ability to add a new section or rename an existing section. Dont care about having new icons to choose from. Right now, I have local news under the Society feed. New problem - I cannot play videos on a few feeds like nbcnews. Not sure why. Still, I like the app much better than Apples new news app! Ive tried all the News type reader apps and this is my favorite. I love how you see the story title and then a list or other sources and their first lines of the story. You can then choose from your favorite, or whichever initial lines grab your interest. Ive never had a problem with connectivity. Sources are opened from within the site. App keeps track of which stories youve read. Like others, you can choose sources that show can show up. I dont have paid subscriptions to any sources, so I dont know if it saves your password for those sites. Of course, you can filter by type of news (sports, entertainment, etc). And there are a few top stories across the top. Pay to remove (easily ignored/non intrusive) ads on bottom. Adding RSS feeds is very easy.

Was great

The new default browser is simply awful. Go into settings and change it back to classic! This was 5 star.
