Its good for local news, bad for world news. The notifications are always unimportant, there are few settings you can adjust, can't control how many old downloads are kept, not everything is in a digest format. Any notifications the timer resets so it always looks new. I want to see breaking news in the notify bar, not fluff pieces or click bait. Which it mostly all is. Can't remove news stations and there are few interesting ones.

I am on several news platforms and have accounts with each one. I enjoy the "Opera Newsbreak" in particular because of the way the information is laid out. It's very convenient and I don't get lost where I am going with the article. I've also noticed and had a major problem with the articles themselves concerning the content. Some stories have no common sense applied to them and that's very frustrating as a reader that is critical of truth, context and content. Not with Opera Newsbreak!

The most annoying thing in the world, ive turned off the NewsBar in my notifications so many times just for it to re-enable itself. Its so incredibly frustrating, the notification isn't dismissable, and im so sick of seeing it i turned it off. But thats just not good enough as it keeps re enabling itself. Im finally uninstalling it just to be done with the annoying notification newsbar. Screw your newsbar. I never wanted it, just a news app. I cant take it anymore good riddance.
