## 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 Singapore

### ***-- "Too much ADs"
he unexpected video and long paragraphs ad blocks the reading
-- KeYong Yu, 2024-04-14

### **--- "News widget misaligned"
After updating to the latest version, the fonts and alignments in dark mode was cut off on the edges in the widget mode.
-- 8⃣6⃣™, 2024-04-11

### ***** "Let us to choose translation language"
Overall good app but I can’t choose language of translation, for example i want to choose preferred language of whole app English, but for translation i want to choose different language
-- Puro-Puri4, 2023-10-27

### ***-- "performance issues"
recent versions seem to have jerky scrolling issues on the iphone 13 pro max….
-- Fata1ty, 2022-03-17

### *---- "Missing feature"
Up until now, reader view is still non existent
-- d8nnii, 2021-08-30

### **--- "Unable to load widget"
Lately the widget doesn't work on iphone.
-- Crux11, 2021-08-05

### *---- "Bad"
Presence not getting saved. Keeps showing news that I didn’t want to see.
-- Esprilla, 2021-01-15

### *---- "Always error in displaying content"
Somehow it displays this quite often. But there’s no pattern and it’s so random. I see the articles displayed properly. Yet when it’s bad five out of ten articles I click on will tell me “error in displaying content”. No back button either I have to swipe lifer to go to a neighbouring article or just restart the whole app.
-- namly, 2020-09-21

### *---- "App crashes when I skip log in"
When I skip log in page on my phone app, the app crashes
-- JellyJoes, 2020-09-02

### *---- "Crashing"
Crashing everytime I use
-- rm621999, 2020-07-12

### **--- "Pages expire fast"
If you open any news article and switch to any other app, when you come back it unloads it and forces you back to home screen. Doesn't even have a back or undo button to go back to what you were reading. Very frustrating.
-- Ambuj Saxena, 2020-06-23

### **--- "How can I opt out of some Newspapers?"
The contents from some trash newspapers keep feeding in. How can I opt out of those?
-- sssssssooooejsj, 2020-05-20

### *---- "Burn phone"
Every time using this app make my phone super hot...
-- Jdjjfnkd, 2020-03-12

### ***-- "Laggy"
Please improve the performance of the app. It is very laggy and every news loads every time I scroll
-- heptigue, 2020-03-08

### *---- "Can not sign in google account"
Can not sign in google account
-- Kengcam, 2019-12-07

### **--- "Needs to improve darkness in dark mode"
I am happy you added a dark mode. But your black color is not truly black. It is very opaque and it makes the app looks cheap.
-- neonPhantom, 2019-03-25

### *---- "Flooded by news that I indicated I am not interested."
The more I select “display less of this topic” the more that topic appears. If I am to stop a soccer news site or Bollywood site appearing, it pick from many other soccer sites and Bollywood related news sites. Flooded with news that is of no interest to me. And the “latest” news is no longer displaying latest news...it keep showing news of the last 24-48 hours without updating. 
Deleted google news for good unless they bring back the old version.
-- Helicraz, 2018-12-03

### *---- "How to limit your world"
Very narrow selection
-- Chrisj49, 2018-10-21

### *---- "Product Manager should be fired"
The new version doesn't show stories by topics like it used to do. The technology section is full with gaming news, which I have zero interest in. Despite indicating to show fewer stories like those, it keeps shoving them in.

Another example - I have Macbook as a favorite topic and now it no longer shows me news on that topic like it used to do with the older version. If I search for Macbook news, it shows me stale news from 2016 and 2017. Really?

The UI may be nice but that doesn't count if the content is irrelevant to the user. 

This is a horrible update and the product manager should be fired! You have completely screwed up a very functional and useful app. It has gone from rating 5 to 1. Very disappointed.
-- Deep Fried Brain, 2018-09-15

### ***** "Great replacement"
It’s a warm welcome knowing that Apple News App is not available in my country, Singapore.
-- Jxlxl, 2018-05-19
