Version 1.5 of the Newsy app enhances user experience for watching
multi-source online video news on the go
Columbia, MO – December 7, 2009 – Newsy, a multi-source video news service
producing daily videos for web and mobile devices, today debuted a new
version of its popular free iPhone app that deepens and enhances news
consumption for mobile users. Newsy is the only news service that analyzes
the key differences in how a story is being reported by various news
organizations around the world.
Version 1.5 of the app features a ‘Sources’ button that enables easy
access to the specific news stories analyzed in a Newsy video – with just
a click, users are seamlessly connected to story-level pages so they can
further research the topics that matter most to them.
“Users love Newsy because they discover sources and perspectives that they
would not find on their own,” Newsy.com President Jim Spencer explains.
“The functionality of the app’s new version furthers our commitment to
offer quick video news analysis on the go – users can easily dig deeper
into the sources they find most relevant.”
In the new version of the app, once a video completes playing, a ’Sources’
button appears next to the ‘Share’ and ‘Comment’ buttons. As with the
first version of the app, user comments made via iPhones and iTouches are
synced instantaneously with the Newsy.com website.
Version 1.0 of the Newsy app, released in September 2009, quickly ascended
the list of free news apps in the App Store. The only online video news
app of its kind, the elegant solution allows users to browse videos with
the gravity scroll or search specifically with keywords.
A news analyzer, not a news aggregator, Newsy.com offers context with
convenience — in 2 to 3 minutes, users understand the nuances in news
coverage.
