Idiot

Whoever runs this app is biased like crazy. Its ridiculous. All he or it does is bash Trump. Dont download

One of the best news aggregators

I have tried pretty much every news app out there. And with Zite gone, I have become more dependent on SmartNews. Only a few things I wish could happen to make it better. 1) give us ability to block sources we dont want to see. 2) show date in preview and/ or the smart view. 3) As others have said, allow the smart view to be the default. Otherwise, loving what this app is becoming!

All works smooth

...and I found that politics coverage was not biased, even coverage for candidates and world. Nice alternative to iOS news

Poorly curated

A lot of one-sided opinion pieces and click-bait make it to the front page, intermingled with the news stories. It gets old.

A well organized and well executed app

A great news aggregator.

Used to be a decent app until politics got involved

Used to aggregate fine but now all it does is send me political notifications, and usually the WRONG political notifications. Makes me wonder who Smart News sold out to...

Bad

I have had this app for about four months. Everything works fine and if you want nothing but a liberal slant then this is the app for you. But if you want a balanced news app then forget it. Ive had it . Im deleting it and finding another app. I am more to the right but I prefer to get a middle ground with no slant. All I get everyday is negative ads about trump . Im over it

Smart?!

Use a lot of space in my phone (200MB of cache) and there is no way to clear it.

Great App!!

Always the latest news first before any other news app. Top news headlines not nonsense waste of time crap.
