#18 News App Critique



 

    Google News is just another way for people to access the news. Google News was created by Google and it pulls up the latest news links up to date for the users to see. Google News also works on system where it is more likely to pop up news articles that are similar to things you have searched in the past. Google News wasn't just created for Apple users but was mainly focused on the android users. People can access Google News through IOS, Android, and the Web. The service has been said to be the worlds biggest news aggregator. 
    

    The difference between Google News and Apple News is that Google News can be more personalized and fits more to news you like whereas Apple News just posts the same news for all apple users to see. Unlike Google News where people with all different phones have access to it, only Apple users have access to Apple News. Apple News can also seem a little less professional than Google News. Google News goes further into detail when trying to please their users by going the extra step. For example, while both allow you to receive notifications of news articles, Google News goes even farther to where you can choose what type of notifications you would like to see and how many you would like to receive. 


    Personally, I think that Google News is a great way to receive your news. It is nice that they make the app available for all users. I feel like Google making the news app more personable is a nice feature to have because who doesn't like personalizing things to make it their own. Overall, I think that Google News is a great source of news and Google does a good job of making sure their app fits their users needs.

#1 Defining News

The news can come in all different forms, for example, the news that we watch on the television newscast, social media, the newspaper, and websites. According to  Merriam Webster , the news is defined as "a report of recent events, previously unknown information or something having a specified influence or effect."  In the world we live in today, we get the majority of our news from social media. Yes, I understand that there are still newscasts but as social media has grown over the years I feel as if the numbers that actually watch TV have gone down. Same thing with newspapers. As social media advances, you will see a decrease in people reading the newspaper. Nicole Martin  says "In a recent survey, 50 percent of Internet users surveyed said that they hear about the latest news via social media before ever hearing about it on a news station.
