So here's my honest take on The Economist - World News. I've tested a bunch of news apps and this one's pretty solid. The content quality is top-notch - you're getting well-researched, fact-based reporting from experts around the world. I like that it covers such a wide range of topics too, not just politics. On the downside, the app can be a little slow and clunky at times. And the paywall for premium articles is kinda annoying if you don't want to pay. But overall, if you're looking for an intelligent, unbiased news source, The Economist is definitely worth a download.
