About

The BBC News app delivers up-to-date news from the BBC and its global journalists. It suits anyone seeking reliable international and local news. For instance, you can quickly check headlines before work, ensuring you're informed about major global events impacting your day.

What Stands Out

  • Personalize your news feed by adding topics with the '+' icon to see stories you care about first.
  • Listen to live BBC World Service Radio 24/7, even while browsing other content within the app.
  • Find content quickly using the search function or by exploring suggested topics based on your location.
  • Read articles offline by downloading the latest stories when you have an internet connection.

Things to Consider

No account is strictly required for basic use, but push notifications involve processing a unique device identifier. Check the BBC's Privacy and Cookies Policy for full details on data handling. Subscription costs or premium features are not mentioned, so verify these if applicable.

Useful Tips

  1. Add topics you're interested in via the '+' icon to create a custom 'My News' feed.
  2. Use the 'Search' function to find specific news indexes like 'Business' or your own subjects.
  3. Adjust story text size using font controls in the settings for better readability.
  4. Enable background updates in settings to ensure your news feed is always current.
