Allows the app to view information about network connections such as which networks exist and are connected.
full network access
Allows the app to create network sockets and use custom network protocols. The browser and other applications provide means to send data to the internet, so this permission is not required to send data to the internet.
run at startup
Allows the app to have itself started as soon as the system has finished booting. This can make it take longer to start the phone and allow the app to slow down the overall phone by always running.
prevent phone from sleeping
Allows the app to prevent the phone from going to sleep.
install shortcuts
Allows an application to add Homescreen shortcuts without user intervention.
receive data from Internet
Allows apps to accept cloud to device messages sent by the app's service. Using this service will incur data usage. Malicious apps could cause excess data usage.

Useful and practical application which allows to read most of the interesting news at one place. However as a cons I would say that is missing "Copy" button when user for example wants to move a link somewhere else, not directly to the app. Also if should be considered to put more media as a source of the news.

Some of the clickbait is so obviously fake. For instance, there will be a picture of someone like Phillip Schofield, and a vague headline implying they are in serious legal trouble. On top of that, the actual content is pretty much the same as all of the other news apps around. To make it worse, I can't remove the app from my 'phone. Also, you can't just click on most stories to read them, you've got to click on a story, then click on read more, so you've got two presses to open.

Literally tracks your location to offer targeted ads. Major battery/radio use from this app which drains 1% battery per minute. Phone gets hot, 100% WiFi usage constantly, even when not opening articles... Why does a news app use this much data to load a few lines of text and small image previews? Because it's uploading data. Latest release is so resource heavy you can't even browse articles properly.

Good layout, you get to read articles that would normally need subscriptions, update 1/1/2021 : took out 3 stars and Uninstalled , can't take out some obviously biased news sources from the feeds (us sun), data collection is becoming excessive for a news app

A nice touch to Sony devices. There is a feed I can check periodically to be filled in on some of the latest updates and news without the need to set up service on another app.
Lee Hale

It's an excellent app. But if your looking for something in particular, there is no search but you can add it your feed but this can be unreliable x

There is no ability to exclude unwanted sources. There is also no way to report or exclude non-news or other unwanted articles. This leads to a feed that includes such ridiculous items as grown men playing children's games in front of cameras, astrology, otherwise unremarkable people who make a living telling stories, and the British royal family. These things have no place in a news feed, yet somehow I can't remove, report, filter, tag or otherwise avoid them. I'll go back to my RSS feeds.

After the Oct 7 update this app is now less crashy and less laggy. All this while using this app has been a frustrating experience but I had no choice since I rely on it to get news from Japan. Good thing that it gets better now. I guess Sony has figured out how to make the app more efficient. Hopefully it will continue to improve from here on.

This App brings you an excellent way of learning about the things that are happening in the world, be it from a quick read in the push notifications on your phone or entering the App to read more about a specific newsletter. The ability of the App to have a personalized news tabs are great too, because you can keep in touch with the news that interests you the most.

I opened this app (for the first time in a while) after updating it just now. Immediately I realised why I don't use it anymore, because of the overwhelming amount of bloody ads! Despite the interesting news topics that you have access to it's so difficult to differentiate between the news itself and the advertising.

2018-10-05T08:26:17.949Z
Fake links now? So I could deal with the pop up ads that were starting to get a bit intrusive, but the fake links that don't connect with the thumbnails and just go to ads, well that's just plain shady. Great way to boost people's trust in news sites 👍. Edit- a week later and the fake link is STILL there. Does no one check your content at all? Does anyone there have any aspirations to a semblance of integrity or pride in your creation. Deleting app now.

Just as anything from sony i expect the best i am currently running this app on my sony expera zx premium and everything is working just fine ..this app has an attractive and easy to use interface lots of news coverage from world..science ..art..etc and i find it has a regular update system so that the news stays current !. It serves my purpose very well and i find that i don't really need to look elsewhere as i have everything i need in this one app..thank you sony and keep up the good work ..

Being well informed with up to date news is an important part of my life, I discover a wide range of new interesting articles with this convenient App that I may have missed. Finding out stuff through E-News is a very quick and handy way to keep up to date with the latest news in our much happening World and 🌌 Universe. My rating for this App is at least 4. 5 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 ✨. Many thanks to Sony's ingenuity and all of those good fellow researchers out there... Adios from Ross W.

App has lots of sneakily placed ads. A lot of celebrity type articles compared to other news apps, also seems to have short articles targeted towards shorter attention spans. Mostly US- centric articles without any local content for my region (Canada) but somehow is able to have ads for businesses in my region. On the plus side doesn't crash much
A Google user
2019-01-15T13:48:03.777Z
I really can't do without this app. Cutting-edge headlines, 24-7 and so accurate. I don't even need to buy a newspaper. While events are unfolding you can get an update of the story. I can often read one story and get a different newspapers perspective on events. Oh No. Please don't spoil this one.
Anjal Naik
2020-06-24T14:03:38.880Z
Not using it currently but have used it for some time earlier. It's an advertisement delivery app rather than a NEWS app. Thought I'd try it again but no improvement; it's cluttered, can't decide whether it wants to keep or cede control over what & how the content is to be delivered and has confusion all around. It also started bombing me with get quick rich scheme ads. Change the "Contains ads." to "Contains spam". Goodbye.

This app was installed along with updates onto my Xperia 10 Plus. It started to send me notifications that I didn't want and ignored, and unfortunately hadn't had time to disable in the settings. Just now, the app sent me a notification which spoiled the newest episode of Game of Thrones only a few hours after it aired. I was about to watch it. This is unforgivable.
Cameron Benest
2020-03-31T08:01:55.372Z
It provides a lot of news articles to read, but doesn't appear to have the ability to remove specific news sources. So feeds may have stories from trash news writers which have become popular but have no bones to back it up. If you could block providers like you can on Google News then it'd be perfect.

It's a cool app, that can be customised to your taste in news, their are no shortage of options, making the app as versatile & interesting as the user wants it to be, picking from numourus, interests broadening the experience while still keeping the interest personised, it does come with adds but overall this didn't detract from the news or interest based environment, fair app if your into interest based news
Maiko Gabriel Kinzel Engelke
2020-07-10T14:53:04.933Z
I have been using it for a long time, and certainly like it, however, the ads... They are getting quite annoying. I would be great if there was a way to remove them, like a paid version, or whatever. It would also be nice to sync it in between devices, but since there is no account required to use it, I can understand some limitations.
Luc Mbabulu
2019-03-15T09:03:16.410Z
Useful. You can reach different news from many media, so you have various journalistic writing and contrasting point of views. Furthermore, we can get quickly overwhelmed with some certains news apps notifications. But instead of that, News Suite provide informations, drop by drop, all along the day. Beyond compare. PERIOD.✍️

2018-11-03T23:46:25.643Z
Used to be good news app, but now every third news article is an advertisement. Updates choose topics by default that I have no interest in, so for now I'm uninstalling this. I'm willing to come back to this app if it's updated with the user in mind, not $.

2019-03-15T17:06:00.270Z
Having to uninstall this app now for the 3rd time as with all the cookie consents needed the app slows right down, on a fresh install app is rapid then after a couple of accept cookies app becomes absolutely hopeless ans slows down, every other app I use is no problem and its not memory problem either 15gb used out of 30 gb so it's not that, just an useless app that keeps asking for cookie consent and becomes absolutely useless, sort it out

This app use to be fantastic. Now it's so flooded with advertising that half the screen is covered or some ads don't load properly. It even overloads itself and ads make it stop working and the app closes. Poor form from developers here. Definitely needs to be fixed.
Arthur Hagen
2018-10-02T14:03:15.795Z
Too cluttered, too much space for pictures, not enough for text. And ads look deceptively like articles - you have to look hard to see the difference. This seems deliberate to generate more clicks, but it's deception and the main reason I am uninstalling.
Tino Graceffa
2018-12-28T08:44:57.601Z
A very useful app. Alerting you to developments in a wide range of interests. Sometimes the headlines are misleading, but this is more the fault of the news source. The adverts can be distracting but overall this app keeps you up to date with the latest news.
Shadi Jafari
2019-05-27T12:28:03.773Z
This app is extremely annoying and stupidly made. Every a while it just decides to update or I don't know, maybe crash. And this haopens every time that I am reading an article. So just in the middle of reading it suddenly closes the article to show me new ones.

I can't believe it's Sony! It's all over the place. The default news sources are gutter press: sports, women and low-brow politics. It's over run by adverts and it's a nightmare to navigate. There's no filter option and it lacks any serious customisation options. Visually, it could do with a higher definition appearance, too.
Robert Bennett
2019-06-16T17:14:29.179Z
Far too many ads its getting to the point were the app doesn't work properly and you have to search for your news which is buried deep beneath the ads and fake malware invested adverts that are at the bottom of every news story. Also The UI is extremely outdate it's got to the point were sony no longer care about its users and instead force you to use half baked malware infected fake ads news reader that doesn't even give the news you ask for.

I like using this app to read about the news during breakfast. It's nice that they feature more than one outlet so you can get better perspectives if the same idea, but it sorta repeats news and we dont get a lot of new ones everyday. Still, great app to use to read news

2019-01-03T15:01:44.600Z
This application does not appear to have a way of selecting from whom I receive my news from. As I'm not a fan of the mirror, independent, and Huffington post. If I did I would join the Socialist Labour Party or it's head office (Momentum or & Militant) news feeds as they seem to be the same outlet of bile.

A very convenient way to read aggregated news, current affairs, entertainment and sport articles and stories from differing news sources. Almost as if curated for me personally. I use it every day, can add news sources I want and is one of my most uses apps daily.

If you only read the Independent, Guardian, Evening Standard, Canary, or any other news source with the same political leaning, then this is the app for you. If you'd rather not live in a bubble, and prefer a more balanced assortment of news sources, then go elsewhere. There's no way to easily edit preferences (that I know of), hence the 1 star.
Jonathan King
2020-05-11T01:05:24.596Z
I personally do not like this App. Every article you click on is nothing but unnecessary click bait. To read any article you always have to click next and next etc again. Why can't these articles actually be read in their entirety. Come on get rid of the click bait next format. It is frustrating, annoying and makes my blood boil.

Ihave been using it for 3 years. It occupies internal memory. After I cleaned data, the app restored settings to another geographic zone. Selecting the favorite country does not have effect on the feeds and the interface. I need to delete it. It contains tonnes of click bait advertising

2020-04-15T10:27:16.393Z
It's comprehensive & very responsive, but there are some areas need improved: it seems to be littered with taboola ad links, certain news sections don't seem to update (or take several days for any new articles to come through), move the 'Read Later' link to within the opened article & replace it with a time when the news article was published (so we can see new recent stories coming in on refresh).
Uffe Jon Ploug
2019-09-20T20:11:25.270Z
This is not (as stated) a good access for thousands of news sources in one easy app. It's simply the least imaginative selection of US sites, mixed with adds and the option to get news on favorite search terms (apparently, Sony thinks that "Sony" would be my favorite term). The deign was neither user friendly or inspiring. I added feeds but nothing showed up. Thankfully, I could uninstall this waste of disc space.

Useful news app allows to target news items that interest me by requesting specific news feeds. There are distracting adverts. A search facility within a news category would also be useful.

Informative & Updated News notifications are essential nowadays and this app does just that. If you need to be updated daily on the world around you and things that specifically interest you then , this app is meant for you. No CAP! Also , go follow @southside_only on Instagram for the culture 🙏. Peace & Blessings

Very easy to use and to pick the category of news that I want to read. I like it! 👍 But the ads are very annoying...😔 A Pro version would be very useful for those who like the app.

The app is easy to use and provides a variety of news source information. The downside: Too many articles are not "current" and show up in the feed a day or so after the story was released.

The app itself is great, however it would be nice to be able to to get rid of news items of no interest, such as celebrity news. I also find links to stories that you have to subscribe to rather annoying.

Very convenient to get the recent and the trending news in minutes in many different feilds, I think adding the stock market category would be a terrific addition.. So far this is my favorite source for news,thanks again to Sony for the time and effort..

Always good news from reliable sources/ although there are some ads on the "news and feeds" that sneak into the space in between stories and if you're not careful it clicks on the ad instead of the story.

I don't understand it. I can mark to read later but I am not able to read it offline. What's the point of read later? All news apps allow for offline reading except this one.

Very up to the minute news. In my opinion very impartial. I would definitely recommend this news app. I have had no problems with using it. I use this daily.

Updated my phone yesterday as Sony told me there was a new update available, since then all my news feeds apart from a few say they are offline!? Even updated the news app, and still the same problem! Is this the Sony phone update, or the news app at fault?

It is a pretty good app for reading articles of news that are currently moving the world, is good because we find national and international news, and any of the topics that we preffer which we can select as a preferred content.

Well , it is informative, amazing, beautiful, easy to use, entertaining, awesome, this is one the things I love Sony mobile for and the bulletin for today's so amazing "Rep. Katie Porter's Whiteboard" and God bless who ever that did the write up.

Finally gave this a go, after years of Sony trying to push it on me through various Xperia models, and it's awful. Every third suggestion is an ad. Don't bother. Sony should do better.

More touches required for reading 1 paragraph . Couldn't get any news from various channels. It's very easy to see all news from a single channel under the sponsored section .not easy to get same news from different channel .

My go to app for news, consolidated and organized into one app. The ads are a bit too much tho since there's one every after two or three articles.....but not really that obstructive...

Up to the minute news on all front's. Back on it again after not using it for a year as it saps data, now i have a better amount of data and a Sony Xperia again it comes with the phone, its great if like me my hobby is journalism on the different platforms to chat to my mates who i have met over the years, Stay Safe and Well 🤠 Hava Gudun Matey x

Christopher Price

Finally uninstalled. First I'll say the app code is excellent. The developers deserve credit for their hard work. But the selection of news sources started to lean heavily in one direction, and the ads became very trashy (sick/gross/shock content).

I use this app on a regular basis. I think it is very good. My only complaint is that I cannot really add URLs of websites I choose. The app theoretically only suppirts this but I have never managed to make it work.

Great range of news stories and customisable with your own special interests. Really useful and very easy to use.

Not ergonomic at all, sensationalist news and not essential, not customizable, too many sponsored articles. I usually love Sony interface and software but this app really is one of the worst news app I ever used.
Derek Farrell
2019-10-10T05:40:36.886Z
Gives me all the national papers and international ones. So I don't miss the stories of the day,with reminders when the headlines change and a new story is up.

Works well, happy with this app, would recommend.. The only problem I have is that there is no search bar so you can't search for headlines..

I really like reading the articles that are News Suite by Sony and the articles are very interesting to read 📖 while using the news suite Sony app I really hope that this is helpful to other people from Elizabeth Emmett 😀

I am annoyed becaise you have no way of stopping notifications coming througj. Particularly annoying if you don't use this app. I like the layout and news on the Daily Mail better.

Why do they need to show a full screen ad? It only makes me more determined NOT to use that product. Do they think if I see something a thousand times I'll relent? Wish away.

Simple and easy to use, can give it other news feeds. Liking the dark mode. There is quite a few ads though and sponsored feeds that can distract sometimes.

2 star less because news opening animation transition hangs. In other words, animation which displays while opening news is delayed by 1 second. Please solve this issue Sony teams.

Used to be good. Now can't customize news sources and now News feed is full of Fox news propoganda, which only happened recently. The addition of the US Sun only makes this worse.

Useless and impossible to uninstall. Just as the "What's New". And too many annoying notifications from both.

to read a simple news story requires 20 or more presses of the coninue reading button,ie you can only read 1 sentance then need to refresh to the next. if i click on a newsfeed i want to read it not 1 sentance at a time page after page after page after page after page after page after page....

This app is a complete and total GUI and navigational chaos, plus ads, and more ads, and more ads, and so many more ads that in fact there are more ads than actual articles to read! What a joke!
Vincent Finn

Too many notifications and intelligence in the choice of stories it shows you. I reinstalled this because the new version of Google news is so bad but this is still worse.

Horrifying message alerts containing images and graphic descriptions of a poor animals suffering at the hands of evil peoples is not what I want to see flash up on my phone. I should be able to remove this app from the phone altogether Sony but I'll have to settle for removing it from my screen and ignoring requests from the pos app to update it 😡 💦 💪

News feed is great, however, there are other sexual ads which are inappropriate and not welcomed. Not sure if they are linked with this news feed. If, so, it is recommended that they be removed.

This is a racist app,all languages in europe are added the exeption is Portuguese ,you can change the region to spanish,german,france etc...however portuguese is not available,if you change to portuguese language it will allow portuguese brazilien news..but Portuguese (portugal) it does not allow..this is really ignorant and useless app ..not friendly towards Portuguese language..it does not allow to add rss feeds from portugal ..therefore racist app ignorant and no one should buy Sony xperia..

Great way to see the news. Not all news outlets linked to the articles can be accessed. Like "Independent". I'm guessing it has something to do with number of times it was accessed for free.
