Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

Russian Newspapers is an application that groups all news of the most important newspapers and magazines of Russia. With this application you can have in one place, all the information you want without browse individual websites of each newspaper or magazine. Newspapers are categorized and grouped for better navigation. In this way, you can read komsomólskaya pravda and, from this one, you can move to other newspapers of the same category (ressiyskaya gazeta or moskovski komsomolets) by moving up the lower menu. You are going to be able to compare how different newspapers analyze the same news. You can also find important regional newspapers such as ntv or tvzvezda in the "Regional" category. We also have financial and political sections (you can read these news at rbc daily or rapaht) and, sports fans have sport express and sports. Fashion magazines could not be missing to be updated on the latest trends, in cosmopolitan, kakprosto and afisha. You can read everything about with celebrities. Additionally for your convenience you can look through many other newspapers in each section. As if all this were not enough, now you can also: ◉ Use the app in DARK MODE. ◉ Add newspapers to your wish in any shelf. ◉ Mark a note as favourite to read it at any other time. ◉ Order newspapers or shelves to your wish, just pressing them. ◉ Open newspapers in an external browser. The logos and content of each newspaper or magazine are the exclusive property of the same. Russian Newspapers only use them in order to be recognized by readers who use the application, and access the web pages of each newspaper.
