Comments on Squirrel News for Android

★★★★★ Luke Sellars · Jan 12, 2024

Great app, they pull a wide variety of articles together. If you're a bit of an idiot like myself, you access the articles by swiping left and right, not up and down (Hah).

★★★★☆ Dan · Jul 6, 2021

Good quality curation of positive news stories that restore some faith in humanity. Sources could be more diverse though.

★★★★★ N Buettgen · Jul 14, 2022

Refreshing and inspiring, everything but 'toxic positivity'. Helps to keep on believing in the good in the world/seeing the world as an inherently good place full of opportunities

★☆☆☆☆ Gonja Ladd · Jul 12, 2020

Bad all bad, only one article popped up. No, just no

★★☆☆☆ A. Schier · Sep 6, 2020

Just flicking through the stories summaries in the app, I like the information - it's just what I've been looking for. However, what I don't like is that it absolutely insists on me using Chrome to read the full story. I've deliberately deactivated Chrome on my phone, and there's no URL shown anywhere to allow me to copy/paste into the browser of my choice. Please make the browser choice an option to make your app usable for people who don't want Google snooping on every aspect their lives.
