New Delhi: Yahoo announced the launch of International edition of Yahoo News Digest for both iOS and Android users in India. According to the company, with this app, users can stay on top of all the need-to-know international news, twice a day, on their mobile phones.
Yahoo News Digest, every morning and night, delivers a summarised version of the top international news. "Using algorithmic and human editorial curation, each story is a collection of "atoms" - articles, maps, Wikipedia entries, videos, and photos - that make it easy for users to "digest" the news quickly. The "Digests" provide a definitive summary of all the top international news so that users can stay on top of what's happening in the world," said the company
The app covers stories from important news categories like News, Technology, Sports, Business, World etc. Users can scan the summary, as well as read "Atoms," which convey different dimensions of the story from the who, what, when, how, and why of a topic.
The Android version of the Yahoo News Digest is built specifically with a new homescreen widget that displays the most recent unread digest for easy viewing. Unlike other homescreen widgets, the Yahoo News Digest widget keeps track of the digests that have been read.
The news, compiled by Yahoo editors in the UK, US, and Malaysia, will deliver a timely Digest everyday at 8am and 6pm, wherever you are in the world.
Yahoo News Digest uses the Summly technology, acquired by Yahoo last year. The International edition of Yahoo News Digest for iOS and Android is available in English Language globally.
