We are also the highest rated news app on both stores and plan to keep it that way.

What’s the challenge?

Our main challenge is to keep growing our community and to keep our contributors engaged.

A first milestone is to find enough volunteers to have all top stories on Newsvoice summarised and with links to quality sources. The next step is to create a structure where the community will help with recruitment, marketing, and social media.
