Yones

Yones (derived from “Your News”) is a daily news application for web browsers, Android and iOS devices,[1] published by the Yones GbR located in Munich. The application helps users to find a way to deal with the large amount of content in news media. It provides readers with a personalized selection of news from different internet platforms, defined by their interests and using habits.[2] The news feed is assembled by articles of news providers such as Spiegel-Online, sueddeutsche.de, tagesschau.de, welt.de and many others. Yones is offered in English and German language.
