To put it another way, I'm a big metal fan and much to my surprise there was just nothing in the app store that did what I was looking for - show me metal news and do it well. So as a professional app developer I took it upon myself to fill that void with the following design goals in mind: 1. Make it simple, slick, and easy to use with a fun interface. It should "just work." 2. Pack it with the innovative features of iOS and Apple devices that I would expect from a great app. 3. Make it metal. Make it fun. Hopefully I've achieved that and more. Let me know in the reviews. If you find any bugs or have any suggestions please send me feedback directly from the app. I want to hear from you! Just hit the menu button in the header and select "Send Feedback" Features: - Aggregates content from the world's top sources of metal news in one convenient app. - Innovative "My Bands" feature figures out your favorite metal bands from your Apple Music and iTunes libraries and then surfaces stories about them to the top of your feed. You can also Blacklist the ones you don't want to get news about. - Explore new metal releases and top selling albums. Open them directly in Apple Music or Spotify. - Concert Tickets! Heavy Headlines automatically finds upcoming shows in your area featuring your Favorite Bands and even lets you purchase tickets for them right through the app. - Full background fetch integration refreshes your metal news automatically for you in the background so it's ready for you every time you open the app. - Automatically receive notifications when new stories about your Favorite Bands are detected! - Have multiple devices? No problem. The app uses iCloud to automatically synch your settings and to keep track of the articles you've already read across all your devices. - Don't like the default look of the app? Heavy Headlines comes packed with over 20 different themes inspired by iconic metal album covers. - Sleek fullscreen reading experience. Simply scroll the article you're reading to enter fullscreen mode. - Lots of other little fun "metal" touches throughout to warm even the blackest of hearts. Please note: The notifications will only work if you allow Heavy Headlines to refresh content in the background. You can do this by going to iOS Settings > General > Background App Refresh and turning it on for Heavy Headlines. ## Heavy Headlines Screenshots - [Screenshot 1](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource221/v4/ae/bb/6c/aebb6c93-bdc2-3237-43a5-61f528252746/1.png/2064x2752.png) - [Screenshot 2](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource221/v4/e1/f7/c9/e1f7c9b3-6e57-08e7-31ae-67e43c538607/2.png/2064x2752.png) - [Screenshot 3](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource221/v4/55/4f/92/554f928c-ec28-5844-7683-33dfc2755e04/3.png/2064x2752.png) - [Screenshot 4](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource221/v4/34/67/5f/34675f99-2037-cade-3b90-0842647927de/4.png/2064x2752.png) - [Screenshot 5](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource211/v4/ff/ab/3f/ffab3f45-8910-b450-ec60-a5f21dff106b/5.png/2064x2752.png) - [Screenshot 6](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource221/v4/5d/39/4b/5d394bb5-2618-70f6-9625-43f7820bc5e6/6.png/2064x2752.png) - [Screenshot 7](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource221/v4/1b/94/fb/1b94fb09-3b0a-c32b-1a72-b58b5d5e64ea/7.png/2064x2752.png) - [Screenshot 8](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource211/v4/da/61/0b/da610b0b-bde2-6242-7c3a-20d5ce32cd62/8.png/2064x2752.png) ## Heavy Headlines Rating Breakdown in United States - 5 stars: 902 (85%) - 4 stars: 114 (11%) - 3 stars: 31 (3%) - 2 stars: 1 (0%) - 1 stars: 7 (1%) ## Heavy Headlines Reviews in United States ### ***** "I’m so whelmed" Listen man, this app does exactly what I need it to do. I even like the fact that when you read in article the color of the hyperlink darkens so you know you read that one. Yeah it has a lot of ads but you can tell that’s from the webpages there articles are on. I using sit in my computer chair and read metal article on my computer. This is the same basic experience but in a user friendly package. 10/10 no notes no complaints. Also, unless he was gonna some how bypass allllll these metal websites agreements with all the ad company’s that advertise on their website, there’s just no logical way this app could exist without ads. -- chelsdee74, 2025-03-09 ### ***** "Thank you!" Just wanted to say I like the app, and I appreciate the time and hard work put into it. -- kwookiee, 2025-03-04 ### *---- "Ads have become a major problem" I don’t particularly like ads on a webpage or app, but they are a part of life, so I accept them. However, the ads on this app have recently become obnoxious, unavoidable, and … predatory? They pop up in the middle of your screen from multiple directions while you are trying to read an article. You can minimize them or swipe them away, but they come right back and black out the article you are trying to read. Over and over. It makes reading an article practically impossible and definitely highly annoying. I used to love this app and the wide range or articles that it provided. However, it has now devolved into an unpleasant mess. I’m sure that the owners of this app/website were successful at monetizing the content, but it has strayed far from what it was. Embed the ads in the page or have them just pop up at the top or bottom, that’s fine. But what they have now is unusable. I’ve been a consumer of Heavy Headlines for years but this is the end. -- johndpayne70, 2024-11-29 ### ***** "App has been a solid performer" The best source of heavy news out there. App works well. -- NA667733789, 2024-03-16 ### ***** "Horns Up \m/\m/" Been using this app daily for a few years now. Recommended. -- Phil DeGrave, 2021-03-02 ### ***** "Zeppelin rules" Heavy news is accurate entertaining and truthful I recommend it highly or very highly -- Lemmy jr, 2020-11-09 ### ***** "Perfect for everyone" This review has content ranging from top websites in rock/metal news to indie articles about extreme metal reviews (my favorite).... it has it all! One stop shop for global metal heads. -- APK44RATM, 2020-10-16 ### ***** "News feed is a great way to catch up with info on the bands a lot of sites don’t mention" Bbbbb -- ezombi, 2019-10-03 ### ***** "🤘" 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤙🤙🤙🤙🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤙🤙🤙🤙🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤙🤙🤙🤙🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙 -- 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤙🤙🤙🤙, 2019-06-28 ### *---- "Stuck on Favorites" It got stuck when I was adding bands to My Favorites! I can’t get out of it and now I can’t do anything and it looks like I’ll have to delete it! -- MarcelAKAMouse, 2019-05-25 [View all Heavy Headlines reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://app.apptail.io/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Heavy Headlines In-App Purchases | Item | Price | |------|-------| | Blood Sacrifice | $9.99 | | Head Bang | $2.99 | | Odin's Blessings | $4.99 | | Flip the Horns | $0.99 | ## Apps Similar to Heavy Headlines -
