Best breakfast news brief

Morning news with a side of humor! Love reading The Skim with my morning coffee, starts my day with a chuckle and I feel like I have an idea of what’s going on in the world.
More audio please
Bigfatchump
I would love this app if everything was audio. I listen to the news as I stand in packed trains and ride my bike or drive my car. The ten minute segments once per week isn’t enough to justify the cost. And it wouldn’t be that expensive to make the daily stuff audio. Nobody really does this. Not the Atlantic. Economist does full audio but only releases once per week. Opportunity knocks!
Disappointed

I came across the Skimm and was excited to receive all of the goodness that came with it. I did not realize that this was actually something I paid for monthly. I obviously didn’t read the small print and felt it was my stupidity that I am paying $2.99/ month. I came to terms with that, however, when I tried to open the app it would flash and just close... I haven’t had access to the app in MONTHS, yet my credit card is continuously being charged. I think the fair thing to do is to cancel my subscription and refund the money paid while the app glitches out on me EVERY TIME I tried to open it. Thank You.
Yay App!

I love the layout of the app and how the tabs function. It’s easy to navigate and looks good.
One sided & biased

You don’t get a balanced viewpoint from this site. Having the new read for you leaves the readers revealing their opinion. Not the balance of it. The “News & News” app does a much better job. You’ll have to read though.
Quick and factual

I can not recommend the Skimm enough. It is a fair and balanced news source that skips over all the nonsense and gets right down to the relevant issues. The Skimm app allows me to down load various calendars of things I am interested in and don’t want to miss. They also conduct interesting, thought provoking interviews. There is nothing not to love about this app.
Love the app, no notifications?

Not getting any notifications on a brand new iPhone XS and the latest version of the app. Installed and reinstalled. What’s going on? Notifications don’t seem to be working ??♂️ fix please.
Easy, fun read- keeps me up to date daily

Love the Skimm, comes to my email every morning keeping me aware of everything major (and entertaining) going on in the US and around the world. It’s written in a light, easy to understand and dry humorous tone that really suits me.
