FAQ

Good to know

Is Media News free?

Yes. The app is free and has no advertising.

Do I need an account?

No. You can read, search and share without one. An account is only needed to comment, upvote, report and sync saved articles.

Where do the articles come from?

From the publishers’ own public news feeds. Media News shows the headline and links to the original article, which you read on the publisher’s site. Headlines and images belong to their publishers.

Does the app track me?

There are no ads and no third-party trackers. To understand how the app is used, it records anonymous usage statistics under a random code that is not linked to your identity. You can switch this off in Settings, which also deletes the data about your phone.

Is the app available in my language?

For now the app interface is in English only. This website is available in English, French, Flemish, German and Spanish. Headlines always appear in the language of the publisher.

Which devices does it run on?

Media News is an Android app, coming to Google Play.
