Truly unbiased news, when the world needs it the most. As others have said, I've been using all sides for over a year, and it's been truly a blessing. Seeing different sources side-by-side reporting on the same topics gives you a perspective to think and act confidently and independently about what's happening in the world around us. Highly recommended.

I appreciate their unbiased synopsis of the day's top news. Their bias rating for news sources is pretty accurate, in my opinion. They've helped me find some center-rated outlets that I enjoy.

eye-opening how the news is delivered to people from all sides !!
★☆☆☆☆Alexander Schell· Aug 10, 2023
CNN is left wing? Wall Street Journal is center? This is more dangerous than people just getting their news from one source. Giving people the illusion that they are informed by the whole "political spectrum"(in this case it's a line from left to right). Its simple really, eliminate news sources from the far left while still showing news sources from the far right. Well-intended people then get ratcheted into right wing bias under the guise of remaining neutral. Left = Liberal? Useless.

I'm having the same issues as others. I downloaded the app but when I try to open it, it only shows the first four flip-through screens. Except for I don't even have buttons at the bottom showing, I just have four screens. Nothing says skip or continue fix it developers, it'd be great to get easy news from you instead of some of these other more biased sources.
★☆☆☆☆Kit H· Sep 13, 2025
I can't get past the first screen. The "next" and "skip" buttons are hidden under my regular phone menu with the three lines, square, and carrot.
