The layout is different than other news apps. One feature I like is the option to select where they receive their news..( news sources ) and the availability is quite large, probably over 150 sources. It's updated regularly.... If your looking to read up on the news, this is great...with many categories and topics.

It's a good app, I really loved the widget and the ui. However, that being said, I do wish it would show popular / latest news for your location - especially since it asks for it! I'll update my review to 5 stars once that becomes the case.
