Comments on AP News: World & Local for Android

★★★★★ Charles Kinnan · Apr 20, 2026

One of the few real news apps left. They link to their own news stories you can read. Not videos. Not links to other sites. Not ads. You know real news. I can find that other stuff in any search engine.

★★★★★ Jak Rye · Oct 4, 2025

Keeps aking for an update that seems not to be there.

★★★★★ Candid Reviews · Feb 2, 2026

The AP is mandated to tell the truth. This is the first app that I use for news that you can believe.

★★★★☆ Mick Willdo · Jan 31, 2026

After a month's use I'm pretty pleased. Reporting seems balanced and gives me another perspective to my other News apps. I've not experienced any annoyance from ads. Everything seems to work fine, with one exception. I've put two favorites in Bookmarks. When I click Soccer I get European News and when I click European News I get Soccer!

★☆☆☆☆ Michael Cr · Dec 21, 2025

Love the AP, but hate that they are now forcing agreement to cross-app data sharing with no opt-out. You can only Agree or uninstall, and I'm uninstalling.

★☆☆☆☆ Jimmy McCracken · Feb 12, 2026

This is my go-to news app. After update stuck at Welcome screen with new accept the rules. I accept and get something wrong on your end pop up. I've even deleted and installed x2 over the last 3 days, Same problem.

★☆☆☆☆ Mikeg · Dec 22, 2025

I used to like AP, but I refuse to allow AP to track me across all of my other apps. The AP News app suddenly blocked my access to their site, unless I agreed to their full access to my phone and all apps. I don't trust them!
