A convenient source of the latest news

Nowadays, we are leaning more and more towards a paperless society. Publishing companies are now transporting their daily publication to the internet through websites. Today, people who want to read the news or want to browse through a magazine can simply visit news and magazine websites, instead of buying the latest releases. To make it even more convenient, these websites also release apps so users can access them anytime, anywhere. News Break is one such app. A mobile version of the popular news agency of the same name, this app brings you curated daily briefings about news, traffic, events, and more. It is a geo-location-aware software, which means that the majority of the content is local news. However, there is still some national news that you can peruse. 

Always be in the know

News Break provides the users with a wide range of news content, from curated local briefings to professionally hand-picked national and world headlines. You can also get the breaking news and emergency alerts with 360 full coverage. The app aggregates rich content from more than a thousand news sources, including CNN, Fox News, Business Insider, Reuters, and the Associated Press. If you want to go deeper into a story, there is an editor-picked national headline, which will provide you with comprehensive and in-depth details. 

News Break provides a personalized feed. You can set your location to get the latest news from your neighborhood. There is also a For You tab wherein you can set the type of news you want, including gossip, sports, and politics. More than that, you can also use the app to find local restaurants, deals, and shop openings. News Break comes with an easy-to-navigate interface. It also has a dark theme for eye-friendly browsing.

News Break is an app that fills the hole left by the decreasing number of local media. It works to provide suburban and rural areas with the news around their neighborhood. However, the aggregated content is sometimes inconsistent, ranging from decently-reported stories to unfiltered press releases. Additionally, the app has lots of bug issues and intrusive ads, which can be a major deal-breaker for some users.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?
