Kagi News

A world tension index without a toggle to turn it off is inappropriate. Who needs to have an anxiety meter immediately upon app startup? Otherwise the newsfeed seems compelling and customizable.

made it fun for me to check the news because of the ability to set the order of tabs

great

It's Very good and 100% Suitable for Important News Reader but I am uninstall the app after 30 minist usage because can't switch the source countant language in my regional language

Türkiye'den haber yok. Global var sadece ve İngilizce maalesef

Nice app

so far I like it. it seems honest and it's resources are legitimate.

Clean, lean and unbelievably coherent

MSi

Catch the pertinent stories each day. Simple but effective.

News that is direct, to the point. Other news sites are mostly "tabloid style rubbish", Kagi News is not. While it doesn't update continuously, may not be all things to all people, I'm sure it will improve over time. As others have stated, it is a refreshing, honest news source.

best app with zero ads and best news explanation

loop

all local news and add languages

Beautifully clean, ad-free daily news. Thoughtful structured summaries with sources, multiple perspectives, timeline, and zero doomscrolling. Private, calm, fast to skim. My favorite mindful briefing.

Please add Bengali language. When will you add?

NICE

One of the very best. No bloat, no ads, this is my go to source for lightning news and headlines.

missing local news outlet. I'm looking for alternative to Google discover and so far everyone i tried doesn't give me the local option.

I get it. but having an AI summary of news is not "fixing broken news"

This app is great! it would be even better if you could Implement notifications -5⭐'s, even without them

Really like it, but it needs either an option to specify the update time, or if that can't be done, an option of choosing one of two times to update, am or pm. When I typically use Kagi is usually 15 hours after it updates. Much of the news is stale by then.

Local contente are never displayed in my local language (BE-fr) + Worldwide contents are only available in English. No translation service provided / no API features to use other translation tools

Best news app on the playstore

Very promising news app. One prob: News refresh is at 2pm my time. Id like to read fresh news every day exactly at 6am :(

Generally very good, but it occasionally pulls in clickbait or aggregates paywalled articles. In those cases, the summary seems based entirely on the headline rather than the actual content.

I want to say this news app is great for beginners like myself on current events. I would only suggest if the developers can please add a save/read for later option in the app. If so then the app would be perfect.

amazing news app. no fuss, no ads, simply works.

Clean and trusted

this is what i have in my mind for news where all the news combined in one place this is very nice apps..

I like it. One problem. No login. Have to calibrate the same tabs for desktop and mobile as well. Filters are great!

if it remains free 5stars are there

I really like the clean interface of the app as well as the fact that it updates only once a day. The app also allows you to select the categories you want to follow and ignore the rest. The app is great if you just want to be updated about the most important stories of the day. If you are a heavy news reader or prefer more detailed stories that do not always appear on front pages of newspapers, this is not the app for that.

No widget?

So far this seems like a genuinely thoughtful and well made Google News alternative. So far I like it a lot more than Google News, and love the content filters.

GNews posts more content under the same categories. But Kagi has a much cleaner UI.

When I left iOS and came to Android I struggled to find an Apple News replacement. Google News just takes you to the website and I wanted the clean reading mode Apple News gives you. This app finally gives me that. They need onboarding for selecting the categories you care about, article thumbnails, and more articles to scroll through. Premium news sources will be good, but assuming that will come with paid partnerships. Great start so far, hopefully a privacy respectful alternative to Google.

Only updated once every 24hrs and then it is just old news that I have read the day before elsewhere.

So far, I like this a lot. It's tailorable, concise and easy to read. A widget would be good, but that's a minor inconvenience. Overall, a lot to like and nothing significant to whinge about.

Much better than google news.

I love this news app! Just what I needed ... Thank you !

I really liked the app and I encourage you to maintain your identity in other apps. The best thing about it is that it's not like other overwhelming apps and it's ad-free. Please consider adding some features like colors and news languages. Thank you:)

good news app kagi 💛 keep up 🆙 improvements and adding cool features ...

such a hidden gem

Samsung "Accessibility" is not allowing for notifications.

Great way to get a quick grasp of current events and follow through to the sourced articles.

So far so good! This is exactly the type of aggregator I was looking for, clean interface, easy to read, doesn't pull you into random news pages via a browser and has some really helpful filters and settings. only thing missing is notifications? I can't find that in the settings and it would be nice to get updates or morning briefings

Best App

Has inaccuracies too often to a reliable news app.

Improving.

too behind... the updates are so behind on current news its a joke, this app should do it's updates just prior to releasing the latest... most of us will already know what it presents even though the mission is to reduce screen time... maybe the answer is release an update every 12 hours instead of 24 hours...

Really appreciate your work , no ads and seamless experience. can't get it anywhere else for free . thanks a lot for the efforts

pros: the idea of gathering news. cons: implemenetation, inconsistent schedule, different time of updating news. the language - i set english as main language but some news appear on language and i cant read them. some news appear on top even beibg unsignificant, and some crutial news are hidden.

Excellent news app. Swiping actions needs some tuning, but content wise the best news aggregation app

Absolutely brilliant! I'm not sure how I came across this app but glad I did. The news is relevant/topical, and presented in a clear format with useful summary sections that help you understand the underlying topic. Also the World Tension Index is inspired. AI clearly does well driving all this. More established news apps should take note, this all works. What would make this 5 stars is an option to vary the update time, notifications, and tailored sources. Great effort all round! I'm keeping.

most deeply disappointing, disturbingly limited, and utterly aimless additions to any newsfeed for anyone anywhere

I miss the entertainment section as a refresher after the hard news. specifically I like to follow royal families around the world. The section disappeared with no warning explanation or alternatively named heading.

nice app but there should be more updates to News. my feed stays the same for a full day (in a world where news changes all the time). I guess it's for busy people.

This is a remarkably well designed app. The interface is clean and bloatfree. If you're on the market for a news aggregator this is for you and it's completely free + NO ADS

I like how it doesn't forcefully personalize nor try to collect data. i wish they added widgets though

this is app is done with so much duty of care, i can see the effort but there are things to improve 1)i understand one update at utc 2pm. But there are problems with that, kagi gives new news at evening 5pm in india, Evening! this is worth changing.( give how much news its comes, to user, once at morning in their time zone) 2)and educating users in the app 2.1)that these new are from independent sources 2.2)and educating users that fidelity of news even with usage of ai summaries is important.

The only thing missing is the sync functionality.

really nice news app

it's a good app to get the top news around topics or geograpiwa can sort and arrange them to your choice

I just wanted to say that the latest update that adds an history is fantastic.

Please dev team, just add these features: 1. An option to chose and track local news from our country and region (for example the Balkans area, Western Europe, UAE etc). 2. The transparency on UI panel elements with blur so that reading becomes more pleasing for the eye. 3. A feature of live widgets with options to chose the size of it and manually adjusting of corner radius. Everything else is perfect, don't touch anything. 😊

good app, love the layout but UK news does not refresh in time in the morning and also I don't know why there isn't a politics category. a bit more focus on the UK would be great too

A breath of fresh air!

superb concept in these times of trying.

There are news categories for Germany, France, Italy, Belgium, Sweden … North Macedonia, and Ohio, but not for the UK? Really?

This is a news app should be. News means only news, nothing else. If it introduces a premium subscription, I'm in. So beautiful to read the news, the app UI is smooth enough to enjoy reading. And mostly, no login no sign up disturbances.

gretest of all time

A no non-sense, no clickbait news app

AI slop generator. It sucks up news from real news organizations, then attempts to summarize it in small snippets, losing or significantly altering details of the news stories.

Good idea but in thr UK it shows yesterdays news in the morning. When I wake up I want to see today's news.

good app keep up 🆙 kagi 💛

This is the perfect news app. I hope it sticks around forever! Other than being able to choose the categories that interest you, you can rearrange the sections that make up the stories or even hide some completely. It can translate articles from other languages, or show you the summary in the articles' original language. (I wish you could translate individual stories though instead of having to go to the settings to toggle that feature on and off!)

Good concept, great clean interface, but clearly not there yet. Top UK news item is four days old. Also when tried to sign up to make suggestions, the app thought I was a bot. I'm not, honestly. No way to get round this. Will try it again in a few months.

seems pretty cool

Really good news app for someone who wants concise information, broken up by bullet points, in their news.

Refuses to work. Just says "error, retry" 🤣

this is on entirely different level of thinking: clean and with summary outlines. fabulous! erik

Truly amazing, best news app so far.

Honestly it is awesome but why not Dark theme? Edit: I am sorry, it did changed and i have not noticed it. Thank you but Why can't we add new category? I use Google which feels little pathetic but still i can add custom keyword and it will show related results as it is a news aggregator of my keywords.

Thought this would be a news aggregator without adverse incentives toward users, but it's actually just AI slop summaries of news articles. If I wanted that I could get that anywhere else.

A million times better than Google News or similar apps.

Kagi News is a life-changing way to quickly get the latest news without wasting time on reading the same things again and again, or getting sucked into low-quality clickbait "content" with mountains of ads. I don't use social media but my experience on Google News had become so bad that it almost felt like the echo chambers of Facebook & Co. Ads and recommended "content" from influencers and tech writers without any depth or usefulness. Kagi feels like a breath of fresh air compared to that.

app is great. 👌

I like kagi for search but this app sucks. It really is just AI slop. As you read an article, points are repeated over and over again. Tough to argue with the price though

clean and concise. bite size stories and no clutter.

very well thought out interface that allows me to quickly verify if the ai summary is accurate, my only gripes are that the ai sometimes makes headlines sound weird and there are no widgets.

Works pretty well, but sometimes things don't load, and the translation doesn't either. More news would be nice as well, but so far, it's a really good app for being in beta. Best news app I ever used!

very good

Has repeated the same headlines for the last 3 days. 'World' news seems preferential to report on UK legislature. Uninstalled

Absolute gamechanger. Now I can stay up to date without doomscrolling past a bunch of celeb BS. goodbye forever google news.

Kagi News is amazing! Finally, an impartial, ethical, highly efficient way to stay informed. Thank you, Kagi!

it's well designed and reliant. unfortunately I would like to have news for my country France not the world in English

雖然AI摘要不是很準, 但是整個設計很棒，而且沒有廣告和垃圾新聞

App is very promissing i loved it but has very little news feeds has. And i think this app needs easy way to contribute in app.

A great idea for a news app and the transparency is much appreciated!

This News app provides an ideal, succinct overview of current topics/events. By summarizing articles from multiple sources it eliminates the bloat/boilerplate text leaving just the key facts while also avoiding duplicate articles on the same topic. The once a day content update along with a responsive, efficient user interface is so refreshing. This is now a benchmark for how News should be consumed.

great news format, clear of BS and seems unbiased. thanks Kagi for putting this out

Superb app. Well designed, easy to use, clearly sourced, and rather comprehensive.

I want to like this app, but I can't even start using it. I'm immediately greeted with "Something went wrong, there are no stories here!" and there's no option to refresh or anything.

good keep up 🆙 kagi 📀🙏

Doesn't support landscape mode for tablets.

solved bad news for me

Kagi is amazing. I love the philosophy. Search has been amazing for a while now and it's great to see their news product brought out into a dedicated app.

Excellent summary of news. Allows you to see the actual story plus different perspectives on different stories with many different sources.

Love this! Just news, none of that junk that comes with other news apps that spend more time trying to sell you something or sell your data. Kagi is one of the best new companies out there.

As close to unbiased and factual as I can find nowadays, and I really appreciate the ability to fine tune what kinds of stories are presented. Since it's not ad driven, it's not trying to maximize clicks and attention. It seems to just get straight to the point without clutter while still covering all the background I'd want to see.

The best privacy friendly News app That I can get compared to Google News. it let's me categorize what I want the news of the focus to be It's only going to get better from here on out!!!

This has got to be the best news app I've had the pleasure of using. The interface is very simple and slick, the categories are really useful and work very well. And all the sources used for each story are prominently displayed at the top above the summary so you can check for yourself! To top it all off, any story with a location has the location linked so you can quickly open where it's taking place in your map of choice.
