★★★★★
This app has a great user interface. It loads quickly and has many options to choose (like changing the font size, many articles...). The only downside is that the app almost forces you to buy premium. What I mean is this: you have 1/2 of the article, to read the other half you need premium or if you want to read news from more 'known' publishers. So it'll be nice to make some changes about how the premium works.
★★★★★
There weren't as many options/categories that I saw in ads (such as: lgbtq - good news - feminism) But the set-up is easy to understand and very direct. The features like summaries before articles are really nice as well. It does give you multiple povs on situations too. Just really sad about those missing categories. You can search those specific categories, but I'd definitely rather have them in my news feed then going through the process of searching each category.
★★★★★
Needs 2 improvements. In the Explore topics options' bar - add Sport. Under every Summary, beside reading time - add either the date of the article or time elapsed since its publication (there's sufficient space for it). Then it will deserve ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ rating from me.
★★☆☆☆
It's for subscribers only. You give your personal info to get some teaser headline articles that when you try to read them you are prompted to a subscription plan. Should be in the description.
★★☆☆☆
I hate when apps lock behind a pay wall features that were free. If you want to add a subscription then add new features for that. Plus it's way expensive while the only thing it does is to give you the links for other sites. If you produced original content I could understand the 60 dollars per year but 60 dollars for a link to read an article on BBC or on CNN is a big NO.
★★☆☆☆
If this service exists, I guess there' demand... I don't get why I need this. Blowing through paywalls is a breeze these days and I can always get ChatGPT, Bing or Bard curate content for me for free. Hell, I can read headlines myself... I just don't get why we need more content aggregators or whatever you call this thing. Sorry.
