Great source for news. Gives me a solid view of what each side is saying, so I can make my own decision on what's actually happening in news.

I knew the news was reported differently based on political leanings but never thought it might not be reported at all. It's great to see the blind spots highlighted. So helpful.

As news sources become more suspect, Ground News applies an analytical approach that allows you to better determine what the truth is. It does this by sharing side by side stories on a common topic and adding the bias factor of the sources.
★★★★★Kathy Batesel· Jul 12, 2026
Started my trial this morning and will happily pay for a subscription. I love that I can choose the scope of news I receive, see how balanced the various reporting stories have been, get a concise summary of them, and drill down into those that I wish to learn more about. Best way to quickly stay on top of current events that are local, regional, or worldwide. Plus, it's not tracking my data and reselling it.
★★☆☆☆Jesse Christensen· Jul 19, 2026
Still not great at getting me interesting news stories. Bias breakdowns are confusing: "this story has 0% left and center bias", is a weird way of saying, "this story has 100% right bias". Also rates bias and factuality based on the media source, not the actual article's bias and factuality. I'd expect better functionality and clarity from a paid subscription service. Also, you can "cancel anytime" but you're not getting a refund in your remaining year.

Very mediocre and unclear UI, and it's annoying that I have to commit to paying before a free trial. They do a poor job of explaining things like categorizing bias, or what the real differences are between "Low" and "Very Low" factuality. And personally, as someone who manually does what this app does already (reading from 4–5 sources across the bias spectrum), for this app to be worth my money, it needs to show objective, source-specific differences for individual articles.
