## news.com.au Description
Get the app that gets you.

We get how busy you are. That’s why we’ve redesigned the news.com.au app to make it even easier to get across what’s happening, what it means for you, and to join in the conversation.

Features include:

Top stories: Stay across Australian news, world news, and get live updates 24/7. From major global developments, Trump and war coverage, to national headlines, finance, politics and local interest issues, you’ll get the big stories fast.

A personal feed made 'For You': Personalise your feed by following the topics you care about. Tap into your custom 'For You' section to see our recommendations on stories we think you’ll like.

Choose your layout: You’re in control of the app’s layout. You can quickly swipe horizontally through headlines, or switch to the classic scroll layout for a deeper dive.

Breaking news alerts: Enable real-time push notifications for urgent breaking news so you’re always in the loop.

Your home for Sports news: Follow all the action with dedicated sections for NRL, AFL, UFC, F1 and more. We cover what everyone’s talking about - both on and off the field.

Pop-culture, trends, and lifestyle: Balance out the hard headlines with a fast-paced mix of entertainment news, celebrity buzz, and lifestyle trends.

Be part of the conversation: See what stories are ‘Most Commented’ across Australia. You can also share your take with quick emoji reactions or get your comment featured in articles.

Watch, listen, or save for later: Watch quick video updates, listen to narrated audio articles or podcasts on the go, or save stories to read later offline.

Get easy low-light reading: Switch to native Dark Mode for a better reading experience that’s easy on the eyes and saves your battery.
