Volv – News in 9 seconds

Easily digestible news segments with relevant stories!

Really not useful and prevents preservation of preferences unless you give them your Facebook/Apple/Google password......Not acceptable and there should be an email sign in option..Also on iPad it’s cumbersome, why no landscape mode after all this time? Seems very basic and limited to US news

Most definitely the app to go to for top news Love the 9min clipped.

This app is awesome! I love how I can save articles. I can read more on the ones I like. I freakin love that it also indicates when the linked article is bias.

I’ve had the app for at least a year now, maybe longer. It constantly is unable to refresh the feed. Sometimes it just shows me nothing.. needs a lot of work

Until recently, this app did what a bite-size news app should: provide quick summaries of news items, along with source links so you can learn more. But now, they’ve removed source links. So the depth of the app is gone, as is any form of attribution. You can’t trust anything in the app, because you can’t see where it came from. At best, this is stealing content without crediting the source; at worst, they may be summarizing content from thoroughly untrustworthy sources and passing it off as truth. Or just making it up entirely. There’s no way to tell. Either way, the ability to read more was key. By embedding the link browser within the app, it made the entire experience sticky and valuable. Not anymore. The other changes to the app are fine. There’s a paid tier, and news items that are clearly ads. They need to monetize, and those are reasonable strategies. But I wouldn’t recommend the app to anybody now.

Smart content bite sized and made for me

I used to enjoy this app for bite-sized news snippets in a modern format, but all the articles (and *especially* the notifications) have turned into nonstop shameless clickbait. I get plenty of “You’ll never believe what Celebrity A did this time…!” or “Guess who just revealed they are actually an extraterrestrial?!” in the checkout line, thanks.

The apps notifications are not working and keeps toggling off every time I exit the app. I tried to send feedback through the app feedback option and that too is broken and the button wont send.

Really loving this simple quick news app. Great balance of interesting articles and news I actually want to read. Keep it up!
