Newser's writers and editors carefully select approximately 60 of the most essential, entertaining, and delightfully quirky news items to cover each day. And at just two paragraphs each, our sharply written stories pack in only the most interesting details—none of the boring stuff—and are quick and easy to digest, especially on the go. And we're pretty to look at, too: Our signature grid, reformatted for mobile, lets eye-catching photos and short and snappy headlines do the talking, providing a vivid snapshot of the day's news.

    This is the best news app I love it! The best part is that it is the normal news with a few funny things here and there :)

    Always gets an error when opening the app. Sometimes it doesn't but most of the time it gets an error. So lame

    Decent app. Similar to Weave and Fuse. Zite is my favorite based on the content and selection.
