I really want to love this app. I absolutely love the UN and the work they do and was so excited to install this, but it doesn't work at all with my Samsung Galaxy S8. It just says, "news feed contains no entries" and whenever I reload displays an error message about a cache or something not being a directory. Please help! I've deleted and re-downloaded it a few times and no luck... It worked for a few minutes once, and I got notifications about 2 articles. But nothing now, + the error is back.

Dear Melody K. thank you for your message and our apology for unintentionally delayed response. The app is currently being upgraded and this, perhaps, might be the reason why some features might not work properly. We sincerely hope that with the newly upgraded/updated version the app will work correctly. Thank you for your understanding and support

Much better than the BBC news app. I hardly ever look at the news due to so much going on. But at least we do know there is some hope. It would be useful to be able to select text in articles to be able to copy and paste. Also, making the app open source and fdroid would help further the UN news app.

If you're an MUN delegate, this is the best app you'll ever download. Overall, the news coverage is amazing, and it definetly makes an incredible job placing all of the information together. This is the the most useful app if you want to stay in touch with the United Nations' inside, or simply with the most significant global events. Edited

The language switcher is bugged; the only languages I could get to work were English and Spanish. This creates a horrible user experience for users trying to access the app using any of the other "available" languages. Other than that, it does its job. Wish I could access the news in other languages though. Edited

10/2024. Straightforward and free of pesky ads. This app is a great addition to the goal of having a small handful of diverse, trustworthy news outlets. If any 2 apps say exactly the same thing, one of them is unnecessary!
