Newspager - iOS app for quick news

Hacker News

Hey I created an app a couple of weekends ago out of a personal need and would like to get some feedback from all of you. I visit a set of web pages as a routine every morning to get my news/updates from around the world. Some of the web sites don’t support RSS feeds so I end up visiting the pages directly. Going between tabs and bookmarks got to me and I thought what if I could scroll through headlines, articles etc just like the news feed in Facebook. So I created an app that does that. You can visit the web site at: www.newspagerapp.com or download the app from iTunes at https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/newspager/id768497996?ls=1&mt=8 The app is $.99 to download. If anyone wants a promo code please let me know and I will send one. Although usable, the app needs some work. I am aware of it and would like to hear your suggestions.
