Reviews

Great App!!
mojitomama 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
Finally all in one place! Great app for your news fix. Quick access to the current news in easily readable format. Like speed dial for news.
Nice, stable.
Flash2k 3.0 stars Version: 1.0
Easy to use, nice layout. Please add NY Post mobile site.
Buy This!
TLxad$$$ 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
This is a beautiful app with all my favorite news sources in one place. It replaced AP, News Fuse, & USA Today freeing up space. Big icons; loads fast. U should get!
Great!
CJeannine 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
I have several news aps and this one is my new number one so. Every news source, great graphics,easy to read and all in one ap. A must have!!!
Great App
bbhtaylor 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
Very useful and intuitive. This App frees up space and stream lines my review of the days news. Of course, as the name implies, it might feed into my addiction....
Not Great
artabn 1.0 stars Version: 1.0
Mainly links directly to the mobile sites of these news sites. The appearance is jumbled and varies from site to site. For instance, USA Today is easy to read but going to the WSJ you get a tiny font with no discernable 'sections'. Pass, unless it becomes free and formatted correctly. And two stories under a news section will hardly satisfy a junkie.
Please add the ability to see the link or address to the page.
Skankinberries 1.0 stars Version: 1.0
This app needs the ability to copy and paste the link. What do I do when I find an interesting article I want to send to someone??? Please add that and this app would be awesome. Otherwise it does me no good. I'll go back to AP News.
Great app!
marlenez 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
Nice to have everything in one place eliminating the need for multiple news site apps. Beautiful, intuitive interface. I highly recommend.
Top notch news fast ...
AMetamorphosis 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
Well worth the price ! Great interface ... Hope to see more sites added like gizmodo, wired, etc as they become available. Suggestion: allow users to add / delete icons for websites in the interface. ( don't care about espn here )
Outstanding
Tad Davis 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
A wonderful app. Clean design, good use of screen space. I recommend taking 30 seconds to read the help text. Only missing feature for me is the ability to rearrange icons in order of preference; but the developer assures me it's on his list.
Not to good
jhitch 1.0 stars Version: 1.1
Really hope the developers make some major updates to the app. Update 3: So in landscape mode you cannot tap on the bottom 3 icons. You can scroll all the way to the bottom but it just automatically scrolls back up to the grouping of icons above it. Update 2: Okay, so I'm trying to like this app. but it's just not working out. Even USA Today with no graphics will not load in a decent amount of time unless I connect via 3G or WIFI. Update 1: Some of the newspapers will not load or load very, very slowly unless you have 3G or WIFI connected. One example is CNET. Overall this app has a good selection of newspapers etc. A few suggestions: 1) Have consistent icons for all. 2) Allow the icons to be re-arranged so one can place favorites at the top of the screen or where ever one wants. 3) If possible increase load times for all. 4) As someone else stated some of the fonts are very small if you drill down through some of the menus. Not sure if this can be changed as it probably would have to be changed on the website as well.
Only Lists Mobile Webpages
barret907k 1.0 stars Version: 1.1
Only Lists Mobile Webpages and doesn't even have landscape support. Do NOT buy,
Almost perfect!
Louie Samman 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
Just needs to be a bit speedier. I have the NYT app, Digg app, and USA Today app and after purchasing this app I don't need any of those and deleted them since this app has all 3. Great sale price. All that needs to be worked on is the speed so it will be less frustrating. It's fast enough but with better speeds this app would be my personal favorite. Of course its on Version 1.0 so I'm not going to complain about the speed until later versions if speeds stay the same because I don't like waiting for loading screens. Sometimes while scrolling it would freeze for a sec and then scroll. Have that fixed. Great app by the way you did a great job.
Very good app
hapdaddy 4.0 stars Version: 1.0
I don't know exactly what else is out there, but this is exactly what I was looking for. A bunch of news sites in one place. Tad bit slow but not bad at all.
Ads in a pay app?
You know, that dude 1.0 stars Version: 1.0
Don't put ads in a pay app. 1 star.
It looks good but lacks substance
HappysANutJob 1.0 stars Version: 1.0
The formatting of the websites is not conducive to being able to access the sites listed. I found it clunky. I bought this because of the reviews. I would proceed with caution if looking to purchase.
 BAD
FLbuzz 1.0 stars Version: 1.0
Some of the icons within the app look real bad, while others are very slick. The bad icons ruin the whole feel of the app overall.
Really great
AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
Worth the money!
Not worth the money
effgeee 1.0 stars Version: 1.1
Bad UI design, weak usability, next to no features worth mentioning. Not worth $0.99. Only positive aspect is that it conserves space on the home screen by requiring just one news icon instead of one for each news site one visits frequently.
Great! But not perfect!
App_pro_1 4.0 stars Version: 1.0
Great way to put news in one place. Seems to lag a little; maybe that can be fixed!
Jdizzo11 4.0 stars Version: 1.0
Best one stop news app
Fantastic
Pattipeanut 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
Everything under one app. Just great!!
Awesome - needs minor fix
Clashizard 4.0 stars Version: 1.0
I'd say this app has some amazing potential, and so far it's quite informative, but I would probably just suggest making the arrow button easier to push/press, otherwise, amazing for .99
2 things
Gmontana 1.0 stars Version: 1.0
1 ads. Make it free or you just look greedy. 2. Like him or not, keep Obamas face off of this (on the Time icon, as well as a few other icons). I don't care who you support and do not want to pay to see it. I put in a request to be refunded as I feel that this is typical "big brother" propaganda and my civil rights are being violated.
Beautiful!
Liquidswar 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
Thank you so much for this app. I was using it with a 2G iphone and the load time for starting the app or opening a news source were ok. But, now with the new 3G S, this app loads almost instantly and the news sources load lightning quick. This v. 1.0 app is almost perfect on its own. Can't wait for any updates. Thanks again.
Awesome news app, I am addicted too news! Now the only one I use for news.
Flash2k 5.0 stars Version: 1.2
Now my only news app and favorite. Love the name, icon, and using the app. It is stable and loads fast. This app takes you to the mobile versions of all the listed news sources. You have total browsing control and it's basically like safari with another skin and nice links to everything news. Has loads of news sites, you can get all sides of all types news. View views and links right in the app. Don't pass it up.
Fixed Issues Makes for a Very Good News App
kcjazzlark 4.0 stars Version: 1.1
The display issues noted in my original review (below) have been fixed in version 1.1 making this an exceptionally good news site app. I particularly like the navigation. I would like a way to set a favorite site which it could open to, as many similar apps offer, instead of always opening to the selection screen (this would make getting to the site for which I usually use the app quicker). And I still question the inclusion of Digg as a news site. But with the update, this and News Fuse are the two best news site applications, and I've upped my rating to 4 stars.
Best news collection
EamusCatuli! 5.0 stars Version: 1.1
Tried all the others... this one is the one. Looks good, works good. Only downside: it actually recognizes Fox News as a real news service... oh well.
NewsAddict
Golden Kash 4.0 stars Version: 1.1
Very good collection (manybe of of the best) but I rated 4 stars because you need to get almost all the major citys not just new York and californa but like Houston and Miami and some of the others when you do that I'll rate it 5 stars
Nearly Perfect!
ACBW 4.0 stars Version: 1.1
Echoing other reviews, this one has it all (almost). The familiar layout (Classics) is exceded by it's simplicity and ease of use. That being said, for me this would be a 5 star if: 1. ability to add or remove other news sites (Economist, SF Chronicle, etc.) 2. ability to organize layout based on my needs 3. built in RSS feed reader that is customizable & based on selections from what's in the listed sites Keep up the great work
News Addict Update review
tmkrausse1833 5.0 stars Version: 1.2
Thanks for the great update to News Addict. Just one suggestion: could you add some speciality magazines like Vanity Affair, The New Republic, the Atlantic Magazine, Fast Company, Success Magazine, and The New Yorker. I believe these magazines would make it a killer app in the I-Tunes store. Thank you and keep up the great work !
I am a news addict, so this is awesome.
BigFatPauly 5.0 stars Version: 1.2
Love this app. Its one of the best made. Worth every penny if you like, no NEED to get your news fix every day.
Best News App
Tropies 5.0 stars Version: 1.2
Tilt scrolling like Instapaper is fantastic. This feature truly makes this the best news app out there! Plus more news sites...it just keeps getting better and better.
Love this app
aperryboy 4.0 stars Version: 1.1
I am a "news junkie" and originally had shortcuts on my iPhone desktop for news sites, such as CNN, FoxNews, etc. Now I have this app and have access to all the news sites. I have one request that I believe would improve the app... Allow the user to remove an unwanted news icon and replace with an icon of another news site. For Instance, I would like to add Sports Illustrated to my news sources. Allow me to remove digg, for example, and replace with the SI site. I think this added flexibility would be extremely useful. But otherwise, this is a great app and will recommend it to my other "news junkie" friends.
Great app.
Mike Z. 4.0 stars Version: 1.1
An overload of news at your finger tips! For $.99 it's a must have. The naysayers are out of their minds, buy this app now!
Fantastic value!!
Shad3z 5.0 stars Version: 1.2
Great app. No more cluttered pages with saved web sites. Dont have to go into 5 seperate apps and a few web pages to get news. Setting priorities or having a favorites list would be nice. This app is great. It will only get better with updates. Thanks!!
No other news apps needed
Ohhhhhhhh yeaaaaaah 5.0 stars Version: 1.2
What a great app! All the news links you could possibly want. I love this app, and it keeps getting better.
The best newsreader app for iphone
EPICGAY 5.0 stars Version: 1.2
I rarely buy apps but got this one right away because I was hugely impressed by the design of this app. It has now replaced both my browser and dedicated apps such as nytimes. Default full screen mode makes reading the news feel more natural and every site is formatted perfectly for iphone.
News on the fly!
sgilder 5.0 stars Version: 1.2
Get the latest news from practically every major news source in the palm of your hand! This app is a must for anyone wanting to stay in touch with what's going on in the news.
Whole ball of wax!
BellinghamMomma 5.0 stars Version: 1.2
The best journalism sites available all in one app.
Great Program with a few exceptions
Ferrisdacat 3.0 stars Version: 1.0
The main issue I have with this app is its inability to view the news when offline. That would be ideal for use while traveling where service is not an option or in the airplane.
No modification ability
stevelparker 1.0 stars Version: 1.2
If this was truly the best news app, you should be able to add and delete your own sources..check out other news apps that offer a customizable experience
Nobama
Baileya1c 1.0 stars Version: 1.2
Can't handle that idiot president being in the center of the app. Use a different time cover and I'll use the app and change my rating.
Not ready for primetime
Anonmom 2.0 stars Version: 1.2
User is not permitted to organize the order of the news feeds and must slog thru the wide selection of crap 'media' outlets provided in this app inorder to locate the limited number of higher quality news resources. Does not show when stories have been updated, published.
this is
WSPanic201 1.0 stars Version: 1.2
pretty much just bookmarks to web sites.
