STV News is an application for Android that provides access to an online platform with articles about most notable events across Scotland. Users can read stories on political, economic, cultural, sports and entertainment topics.
News coverage
Scottish citizens and tourists who are traveling there are able to access an open source news platform to check the latest local events. It is possible to see the changes in senate, notable sports matches, cultural exhibitions and many more. Each story is accompanied with detailed coverage provided by qualified reporters and authors.
The app regularly notifies users about new articles that may attract their attention. Moreover, by sharing such details such as region, it becomes possible to personalize the feed and check only relevant posts. The homepage displays top stories of the day with weather forecasts. However, compared to 1Weather, there is not a comprehensive overview on climate conditions.
Videos
Not only the articles are provided with quotes and images to better remember the read content, but also videos. You can check live broadcasts of political meetings and tournaments.
