## Google News Description
Google News is a personalised news aggregator that organises and highlights what’s happening in the world so that you can quickly catch up and discover more about the stories that matter to you.

With Google News, you’ll find:

YOUR BRIEFING: It can be nearly impossible to keep up with every story that you care about; Your Briefing makes it easy to stay in the know about what’s important and relevant in your world. It updates throughout the day to bring you the top local, national and world headlines, plus personalised news tailored to your interests.

LOCAL NEWS: Explore your community through stories and articles from news outlets in your local area. Customise and choose multiple locations so that you can know what’s happening near you or wherever home is.

FULL COVERAGE: Dive deeper into a story with multiple perspectives. The Full coverage feature organises everything online about a story, surfacing and highlighting coverage from different outlets and mediums. With just a tap, you’ll uncover how the story is unfolding and how everyone is reporting on it.

STORIES FOR YOU: The For You section delivers personalised news related to your interests. Take control and customise the articles that you see by following the topics and sources that you care about.

ACCESS FROM ANY DEVICE: Stay up to date on the news, no matter where you are. Pair the Google News mobile app with our desktop website, news.google.com, and enjoy your personalised content across all your devices.

## Google News Reviews in Philippines

### *---- "Old news is not news"
It’s great to have Google news. But the only problem with it is its biggest problem. News that are a day late is not news at all. But here, you not only get yesterday’s news, but you also get news that are 3 days old and a week old. 
Developers should work on giving us the latest and breaking news.
-- Joules3a, 2024-02-21

### **--- "Laggy"
Great app but it’s so laggy to scroll
-- tanrover, 2022-03-20

### *---- "Misleading articles."
Why would a song written by someone will be featured in the TECHNOLOGY headline? Headlines are mixed in a confusing manner.
-- justencarlo, 2021-06-06

### ****- "Some headers are outdated"
Supreme Court topic still has an outdated list of justices and Politics topic still has the header “Trump presidency” on it.
-- gabekristof, 2021-05-09

### ***** "Widgets please 🥺👉👈 (Update: widget!!!)"
App is great as it is. Would be even so much greater if you guys have widgets like those 4x4 size or something that shows us personalized news headlines. Hope you could grant us this feature. Thank you! (Will definitely update this to 5 stars once the widget rolls out.)

Update: yes there’s widget! So handy and helpful!
-- jetr10, 2021-03-07

### ***** "Add Widget Support!"
Google News is great. It has all of the news I need based on my interests and especially in my area. But please put Widget support. Apple News isn’t even available in the Philippines, and Google News delivers news and articles catered for each person  as well as the area they live in. It would be perfect!
-- keithc214, 2020-11-19

### ***** "iOS 14 widget"
Pls add iOS 14 widget on homescreen
-- TomProvido, 2020-11-01

### ***** "Great application"
This app is great, please add the widget google 🙂
-- Tan0906, 2020-09-27

### **--- "CREATE A WIDGET VERSION FOR iOS14 OF THIS PLEASE"
Please. Like nao.
-- Mikowhale, 2020-09-26

### ***** "Widget"
With the new update ios14 you guys should make a widget on this app just like the news widget on the iphone. The apple news widget is not that great. You guys should make one because of your great app.
-- novemgenre, 2020-09-22

### ***** "Widget Support"
Please add widget support for headlines or my subscription. Thank you!
-- aeron a., 2020-09-17

### ***-- "Stutter"
It used to be smooth scrolling after the update it stutters a lot
-- Galatek, 2020-03-05

### ***** "Best news app I’ve ever used"
Very clean
-- dearxreader, 2020-01-08

### ****- "resets"
resets everytime i minimize the app to view other apps. like if im reading a news from the app, then i go to messenger to read a message. when i return to google news, the page resets like it is being opened for the first time. it’s annoying. but maybe it is ios ram management’s fault and not the app.
-- roxyboi, 2019-11-03

### *---- "Unable to log.in after ios 13.1.2 updates"
Unable to log.in after ios 13.1.2 updates
-- jerpz, 2019-10-01

### **--- "Ignores preferences"
It’s annoying that the app keeps on showing news (types of news) that I have marked with a thumbs down (“fewer stories like this”). I don’t care about useless showbiz news and it keeps on showing on the feed
-- nmfp721, 2019-09-13

### *---- "Fixing (or more like breaking) what isn’t broken"
The old app is way much better. Why replace something that we’ve loved for years?
-- Grapes of Wrath, 2018-10-19

### **--- "ADD DARK MODE"
Add dark mode, that’s what i liked on the previous app, now that it’s gone, this must also have it, if then i would give 5 stars
-- Ckgvlog, 2018-10-16

### *---- "Dark mode?"
Dark mode is gone!!!
-- HEART_ANGEL77777, 2018-07-27

### *---- "Hiding does not work"
Hiding unreliable and bias news agency but still shows up all the time. Hiding doesn’t work at all.
-- mdprotacio, 2018-07-11
