The app features different tabs including For you which shows top stories, some of them local and based on your location, and others selected based on the analysis of stories you’ve read, your search topics, and websites you visit. This for me results in plenty of stories about the wireless industry (some of which I’ve written myself), sports news, the Beatles, and medical shows like House M.D.
The Headlines tab shows you headlines and tabs on top of the display will allow you to see the latest headlines or headlines from various categories including U.S. headlines, World headlines, and the top stories in Business, Technology, Entertainment, Sports, Science, and Health. As I type this on Sunday night, the big story is all about those mysterious drones buzzing those living in the Northeast U.S., especially New Jersey. The Following tab shows you news from publications that you’ve chosen to follow. The Newsstand tab shows you stories selected by newsroom editors.

You might have already installed a ton of news apps on your device. Even if your phone is lousy with news apps, why not give the Google News app a shot? There are no in-app payments required making it a free app. You can always uninstall it if you don’t like it.
