Description
Ruby is a beautifully designed news app for iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, and Apple Vision. It's built with a familiar design, so it's simple and easy to use and understand. Ruby works great with your devices, and supports iCloud syncing for a seamless experience across all of them.
The app itself has a lot of distinct features, such as being able to choose the topic you want to view on your home feed. If you only want to view technology without the politics, you can. Only interested in sports? There's an option for that too. Ruby has options for what you can view on your primary feed with Ruby Premium.
With the Premium explore page, you can also keep up with the latest trends in your region, or make a quick search for whatever you're interested in.
Ruby also offers bookmarks, so you can find an article and come back to it later. We also offer customization. You can easily change the country you're in, or the language you prefer to read.
The built in news reader is easy to understand, and provides content from your favorite websites, but without the advertisements and other nonsense.
Ruby also offers an Apple Watch app, where you can quickly view headlines on your wrist. The Apple Watch app has the same functionality as the iPhone app, so you can easily read headlines of a specific topic, and more.

Ratings and Reviews
Waste of 89p
App doesn’t load - please can I have my 89p back?
Developer Response ,
Sorry that you had this experience, some things regarding the API happened that were out of our control. With the launch of Ruby 2.0, everything should be very solid - would you be willing to give it another go and revise your review? Also feel free to reach out to me at apps@michaelb.nyc to talk about anything.
Doesn’t load
News tab doesn’t even load!
Developer Response ,
Hey. I’m sorry you’re having this issue. More than likely it’s an issue with your internet connection being unable to contact the API where the News is loaded from. Contact me at michael@peroxaan.com for support. Thank you!
