Ten screens from the current release, in the order they appear on Google Play.
Structure
Every country opens into the same seven tabs, so the app works the same way whether you are reading Nigeria or Norway.
Features
It is a directory, not a feed. You choose the publication; the app does not choose for you.
Open any of 190+ countries to see its newspapers, magazines, TV news channels and news agencies in one screen.
Type a newspaper or magazine name to open it in seconds, or search a country to see everything published there.
A daily digest of the biggest stories for whichever country you are following, separate from the source list.
Optional notifications for the day's major stories, which you can turn off entirely in settings.
Pin the papers you read daily and bookmark individual articles to finish later.
Convert a foreign‑language page into your preferred reading language without leaving the app.
Full‑screen reader mode, adjustable text size, pinch zoom, day and night themes, pull‑to‑refresh, and a keep‑screen‑on setting.
The layout adapts to the screen, so the same directory works on a handset and on a television.
Coverage

How it works
Open the country list, search or scroll to the country you want. No account, no setup questions.
Choose Newspapers, Magazines, TV News or Sports for that country — or tap any title straight from the grid.
The publication opens on its own official website inside the reader. Translate it, resize the text, bookmark it or send it on.
Audience
Two apps
Both are free, both are built on the same directory, and they are built for different reading habits.
Country‑first. Pick a country, then move between its newspapers, magazines, TV news channels and sports press in seven tabs. Adds daily headlines by country, breaking‑news alerts and Android TV support.
Install this if you follow a few specific countries closely and want television news alongside the papers.
Publication‑first, with the widest catalogue: newspapers, magazines and e‑papers organised by country, region and topic, plus topic filters that cut across countries.
Install that one if you want the broadest possible list of publications and read by subject as much as by country.

No, it is a directory. It links to each publisher's own official website, so you read the news at the source rather than a rewritten or reformatted copy. That is what makes it useful for comparing how the same story is reported in different countries.

The TV News tab lists each country's television news channels and opens their official websites, where their own news pages and any streams they publish are available. The app does not host or rebroadcast any channel.
Regularly, as publications launch, merge, rename or close. The directory behind the app is maintained on newsmedialists.com.

Publisher
News Media Lists (newsmedialists.com) is a global media directory covering newspapers, magazines, radio stations, television channels and news agencies worldwide. The directory is the source behind this app, its companion apps and the web directory. Every entry links to a publisher's official website; nothing is republished or mirrored.
Important. This app is an independent directory and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by any publisher listed in it. It does not host, own or produce news content — it organises and links to publicly available newspapers, magazines, TV news and news websites, which open on their own sites. All logos, mastheads, broadcasts and trademarks belong to their respective owners. An internet connection is required, and some publishers limit access to their own content.
