  • Couldn’t recommend enough

    This app is a fantastic tool for media literacy. Shows media bias, provides blind spots for left and right wing, and makes international news accessible.
  • At last: just the facts

    An easy to use app that summarizes the news. Read a summary or dive in deeply. Understand the biases. Get the facts.
  • Biased App

    This app has a "bias breakdown" and "factuality breakdown" system that notes different News Sites and labels them in categories pertaining to factuality or bias "level", the only problem is many of the legacy media sites that I have personally fact checked and proved to be disappointing, are indicated as much more credible inside the app. I don't understand how news sources that allow their reporters to blatantly lie, could be considered "Very High" in credibility rating.
  • Do not give them your email!

    After registering with my email, the amount of spam received increased tremendously.
  • Awesome early, probably too soon to be sure of the reliability of their AI

    Time will tell how accurate factuality ratings, AI interpreted biases, etc are.
  • Very thankful for this app

    No more news apps needed once you have this one. It helps me ensure I’m not stuck in an information bubble too far from the center where I aim to be.
  • Should be called Ground Politics

    Too much politics, not much else… Not a broad news app
  • Leans Right

    I like the app it functions well and it’s visually pleasing. However, the idea that they are not right biased is kind of ridiculous. If you read the reviews of most articles, they talk about “emotionally charged language“ on the left continuously on almost every article yet they never talk about the emotionally charged language on the right. It is always framed as though the right news sources are unemotional and factual. If you dive deeper, they do flag conservative leaning sources as biased and mixed factual but their synopsis do not reflect that. I subscribed for a year so we’ll see how it plays out.
  • Love the organization but confusing colors

    By LFCTORRES09
    Love the blind spot feature and the breakdown of coverage based on political leaning. But having the left leaning marked as red and the right learning marked as blue is diabolical and confusing.
  • Very good product

    Ground News is a great (possibly the best) way to sift through the large amount of available news. I have often found interesting news items that didn't make it to major news outlets. I have also been challenged by articles written from a different perspective than I usually read.
