Comments on NewsArc for Android

★★★★★ Very clean interface, with a nice blend of worldwide headlines and topics relevant to oneself. My favorite news app so far

★★★★★ Awesome app. Love the design and ability to customize our feeds and curate our publishers

★★★★★ So thanks for identifying the bug that was causing the page to refresh after exiting reading news articles. Thanks a lot. Continue to update & improve gir better design improvements...

★★★★★ News without clutter. Beautiful, high quality journalism for free!!

★★☆☆☆ Ha, ha! LoL! This app is not unbiased. Sure, you can choose any publisher you want...from the curated list of left leaning sources. 🙁

★★☆☆☆ Literally no point to set the topics you want, it just shows what it wants. No difference before and after.
