An excellent news application selected according to our country and personal interests. Allows you to save articles, block sources that we are not interested in or activate alerts. Best of all is its interface, which works with scroll side to change themes and includes an integrated reader with which we can read the entries without distractions and modify aspects such as font size.
One of the most powerful platforms in the sector at the interface and design level.

Notice for surfers: Flipboard has a widget that we can pin to the desktop. It is very cool, but it consumes a lot of battery. The best, check the news directly from the app.

As its name suggests, it is a "feed" that feeds on articles and news according to our interests and keywords that we want to keep under control. We can tag posts to read later, explore new things, and share articles cleanly and easily. The interface, although clean and minimalist, can be a bit confusing at first. In any case, a good place to keep up with our favorite blogs.

News app in Spanish specialized in technology. Collect articles from sites such as AndroidPIT, Engadget, MovilZona and other important websites within the sector. It has dark mode, and the interface is one of the cleanest and lightest that we can find on Android.
I would give it 5 stars, but I see that The Happy Android does not appear, so I am going to remove half a star from its final rating. Jokes aside, an excellent app with news and tutorials techie.

Another really popular generalist news app that already reaches a whopping over 50 million downloads on Android alone. It offers personalized content and a section with the best videos of the day. There are also other categories such as politics, sports, economics, geek, culture, gastronomy and others.
It offers a very pleasant reading and allows you to easily share the news, add comments, and follow the websites that we like the most. The only downside we can put is that it brings push notifications activated by default, something that is not usually to the liking of many. Luckily it can be disabled.

This same month of May Menéame has launched its official application for Android. We are a news aggregator, with a really powerful comment section, being one of the most important online discussion forums in Spain.
The app as such still has quite a few bugs and details to be polished, but the interface is really attractive and intuitive, so that, if these details are refined, we can find ourselves in front of one of the best news apps in Spanish for Android.
