Assignment Eighteen - News App Critique

Just Check Your Pocket

Cell phones are a pretty basic necessity in today's age, and a good storage plan is a luxury everyone wants with it.  How many pictures can we take and how many apps can we have is almost a competition and become a necessity we cant live without. Each application on our phones allows us a certain piece of information or helps us in some way, and we become reliant on this quick information or helpful tool. One of these apps I am speaking of is the News App. A small square that sits on our home screen and spits out information at record speed to inform us what just happened. The Fox News app is just one of the news apps I utilize on my phone, but has recently become a favorite. 

Fox News has been around since 1996 and has become a lead news source for many Americans since its creation. The channel broadcasts from New York City across the nation. It most definitely attracts the right leaning American's as they the tend to favor republican ideals. The application itself was created as an outlet for the channel, starting out as just one simple application has now grown into much more. Other applications such as Fox Business, Fox News Go, Fox News Radio, Fox Nation, and Fox News Flash. Each application represents a different branch of what Fox News offers, and categorizes them based upon relevance of information. Upon taking a deep dive into which apps are most popular and which are used the most, information was scarce. All of them obviously reported positive reviews and had at least 4 stars on the ratings in the App Store. Each App is great in its own specific way, as they all serve their own function. Business junkies would download Fox Business, while an every day news watcher may just want the Fox News Go app. Fox did an excellent job of providing an outlet for news lovers of any kind.



Whether you're a business man, a busy bee, or someone who just likes to tune in everyone and a while, Fox News has an app for you. This top rated app is on the phone of thousands as the very popular Fox News Chanel created multiple outlets for its viewers to have easier access to their information. In a society where we desire information instantly, and want it constantly at our finger tips, phone apps reign supreme in the ability to share information fast. The Fox News App is an attractive, easily navigable, and popular app used by thousands. If you're one that likes to be "in the know" and one who is always on the go, the Fox News app is the one for you. Whenever you have a hankering for information, just check your pocket.
