What we like: Brilliant blend of weather and local news.Īnother app that packs serious visual appeal, News 360 also learns from your navigation patterns, recommending features based on your areas of interest. You can add locations (that automatically combine weather and local news) and additional topics effortlessly.
The weather app brings useful bits of information from, while we like the clean, uncluttered user interface of the news section. Google’s News App also keeps tab of local weather and does a stellar job with both. You can click through to view most news items either on the source website or stay within the app with a ‘smart’ view option that is similar to a reader. You can add more tabs – regions/cities or publications to the home screen. You can deep dive into any of the ‘shorts’ by clicking through to the news source.įirstly, it’s the visually pleasing interface, secondly, it’s the neatly organised sections – tabbed on top of the screen in multiple colours, that makes this a great news reader. InShorts grabs news from Indian and global sources and packages it in crisp bite sized portions (typically 60 words) with a single visual to give you a quick overview on what’s happening around you. If Flipboard works more for long format features, here’s the quintessential on-the-go app for those with busy schedules and short attention spans. Flipboard culls news and opinion pieces from all over the world but also features a unique ‘Daily Edition’ that rounds up India specific updates.Īvailable on: Android, iOS, Windows Phone Geared more for leisurely reading rather than frenetic updates on the go, Flipboard’s biggest strength is its visual appeal, that works particularly well in large format screens. Probably the big daddy of news aggregator apps, Flipboard has been around a while and has been the ‘go to’ app, especially for tablets and big screen phablet phones.
