Google has brought a host of new features to Currents, the social reading app available on Android
and iOS that sorts through news, blogs and digital magazines. This was
revealed by Mussie Shore, the group product manager for Android in a
post on the official blog for the company's mobile operating system. In his post, Shore said:
"Today, we're revamping Currents to make it even easier to scan through all your favourite categories and specific editions with just the swipe of a finger." The changes introduced with the latest update include categories, customisation of breaking stories according to geographical location and easier scanning through subscribed news, blogs and magazine sources.
According to the blog post, the update has already been released for Android and will soon be seeded for Apple iOS. The post also said that Google has used the same technology that it utilises in compiling search results into categorisation of content in Currents. The introduction of category-based segregation and selection of content makes it easier for users to sift through news. Users can pick the publications they want on top of teh category by assiging favourites and "swipe through the entire category and dive into editions with articles of interest."
Scanning through headlines in any edition has also become easier with the latest Google Currents update. After users read any article, the app will mark the same as viewed and present fresh content to them thereafter. Google also uses the Search technology to show the breaking news to readers, as per Shore's post.
