About this app

Google News is a personalised news aggregator that organises and highlights what’s happening in the world so that you can discover more about the stories that matter to you.

With Google News, you’ll find:

YOUR BRIEFING: It can be nearly impossible to keep up with every story that you care about; Your Briefing makes it easy to stay in the know about what’s important and relevant in your world. It updates throughout the day to bring you the top local, national and world headlines, plus personalised news tailored to your interests.

LOCAL NEWS: Explore your community through stories and articles from news outlets in your local area. Customise and choose multiple locations so that you can know what’s happening near you or wherever home is.

FULL COVERAGE: Dive deeper into a story with multiple perspectives. The Full coverage feature organises everything online about a story, surfacing and highlighting coverage from different outlets and media. With just a tap, you’ll uncover how the story is unfolding and how everyone is reporting on it.

STORIES FOR YOU: The For You section delivers personalised news related to your interests. Take control and customise the articles that you see by following the topics and sources that you care about.

ACCESS FROM ANY DEVICE: Google News is designed to meet the needs of users with different phones and levels of connection. When your connection isn’t strong or you need to save data, Google News will continue to work smoothly by slimming down the size of images and downloading less data. Articles can be downloaded over Wi-Fi to save for later when you are offline.

Do you prefer to access your news on your laptop or desktop? Pair the Google News mobile app with our desktop website, news.google.com, so that you can stay up to date and access the news no matter what device you’re on.

The old news and weather app is much better. It seems like the new app doesn't remember your preferences well, doesn't show more news from your chosen favorite sources, and often doesn't give the choice to dislike news. Most importantly, you cannot scroll through all news sections quickly anymore, since there are shown far too much items per section. The old app was perfect, please repair this or make it available again.

My biggest gripe is with the built-in browser. Please add a way to always open every item in an external browser. This allows me to use my accounts on the respective websites, have browsing history, functional comments, going to other apps (e.g. Twitter) when clicking links in articles, etc. (Update after reply) To be clear, I know how to do this after loading the article, but that's very cumbersome. I want to have it load in the external browser by default without additional clicks, always.

Thank you for using Google News, Ralph! To open the article in an external browser, please follow the steps: After tapping the article, tap the 3-dot overflow menu in the bottom right corner. Tap "View original web page". Hope that helps!

The old google news and weather app was way better. The widget (which I always have on my homescreen) showed all the relevant headlines and the weather for a couple of days in advance. This app however only shows 1 article and a small weather icon. In the app itself you can't even get more detail on the weather it just shows the general temperature and conditions that's it. The old app used to have a (quite accurate) timeline per day so you could see when it would rain, I miss this feature here. So no google, I'm not switching to the new news app which only has half the features of the old one. Thanks but I'll just download the apk of the old app and actually be able to get quick access to the news.
