About NewsBriefs: Your Local News
Newsbriefs is a local news app that curates top news stories from Germany, Spain, France and the rest of the world in English. We present news as easily navigable cards of 70 words or as audios. Whether you are riding a bus or having a sandwich, just open NewsBriefs and update yourself with everything important before you are done.
We only collect information from credible news sources. For world news stories, we use sources like BBC news, New York Times, Al Jazeera, Reuters, etc. and European news from sources like El Pais, El Mundo, Le Figaro, Le Monde, Zeit, Vox, etc. All our news cards include links to the original news articles so you can read more if you are interested.
If Merkel announces a new economic policy or Boris Johnson has some Brexit news, we make sure that such political news is digested and presented as simple news cards. We also bring real time sports news, including Premiere League news, La Liga news, and Australian Open news among other tournaments. Our team also rigorously searches the web for latest tech news and business news to keep you updated. A dedicated team at the same time is looking for entertainment news so you can also keep up with the Kardashian’s without having to look for it.
NewsBriefs is a completely customizable news app where you can choose between the reading mode, topics of interest, and the regions you want to know about. Some of the features to be noted include:
