In today’s digital world, most people no longer rely on the traditional channels such as television, radio, or newspapers to stay up-to-date. Thanks to the internet, getting access to breaking and latest news is just a few clicks away. But as more and more data flood the internet, the information eventually gets lost.

This is why we need a smartphone app that aggregates the news relevant to our interests and makes them accessible. Appy Appy Geek is one such app focused primarily on tech news.  

This  application combines tech news from more than 70 sources and publishes the news as per your preferences with an elegant design. It allows you to personalize your home screen by creating your own channels and following only the topics that matter to you. If you read an article and want more information regarding a specific topic, Appy Geek suggests more relevant articles from a selection of top online resources. 

The app covers 120,000 topics from different categories and sets alerts on the ones that interest you. Most importantly, you can share articles with friends by email, Twitter or Facebooke. The app covers your topics and delivers full articles, photos and videos directly to your device. 

The user interface is fun and easy to use and allows you to browse the news through the innovative TagNav™ explorer. All you have to do is click on TagNav button and you are transported into a world of tags related to the articles or videos that you have opened in the app. There is the “One Feed” feature that shows the breaking news associated with your topics of interest. You can also express your mood on any topic and read the articles with the most reactions.

Mobiles Republic launched 9 editions of this app – USA, UK, Germany, Italy, France, Spain, Latin America, China and International, and it is available in six languages – English, French, German, Italian, simplified Chinese and Spanish. This application is designed for both iPad and iPhone and requires iOS 6.0 or later and Android 2.2 or above in addition to Windows Phone and Windows 8.

Appy Geek is a good app. It works smoothly, has a great interface, and is a definite must-have for tech news aggregation. The only downside of the app is that the topics that it automatically suggests get either too specific, like Google Glass, or too generic, like Wearable Technology. This could be because the app is trying to cover a wide spectrum of audiences.
