What Jamie wrote
I don't have any news apps on my phone, because they are all far too focused on taking my attention. My favorite way to get news? Regular email newsletters that give me a finite amount of content on a schedule I understand, in a medium I control. And don't make me click to your website with all the surveillance and ads. The Economist Espresso daily email (do not use the app!) is a great example of this done well.
