For someone that dislikes the massive onslaught of news that is thrown at us online, I really like Otherweb. It's unique design allows you to see what you want to see and skip what you don't; and it pulls articles from multiple news sites, not just one. You can also adjust your interests so it will only show you news articles that apply to those interests. I will definitely be using this app!

I have reviewed the app and noted the following: * if it is possible better to make more news headline on front page under news tab to easly inform the reader and pick the interesting one. * on news page only screen swipe functionality available to change to other news. To this effect, sometime user's screen may not work effectively. Hence better to have addtional arrow to turn pages and explore more. * I have noted some inconsistent font and formating.

I came across this news app and decided to test it out and I was pleasantly surprised. I read the news all the time and it can be hard to filter out what interests me and Otherweb is very easy and efficient to do that. Otherweb also takes sources from a variety of news sites so you don't have to hop around from site to site or app to app. Would recommend to anyone.

This is a good source to get news from because you choose what type of news you get to a custom degree and you also get tons of information about the articles such as if they are using propaganda techniques or inflammatory language. There are some features that would make the app better one example is having the full article in the app itself as it would make for a more seamless experience. Another feature that would be appreciated would be tool-tips on the nutrition facts section that can get more information about the terms for first time readers. One final thing that would make this app better is user feedback for the articles such as a user rating and comments like the news from windows on computer. Overall the app is good and there is a lot of potential that could give it an even stronger identity elevating it to five stars very soon.

This app makes reading the news fun! I love that I am able to pick what topics I want to read about and take it even further by customizing which topics I like more. Their swipe option makes it easy to move through topics and articles of my interest. Their sources are credible and easy to read. Will definitely be using this app often!
