Good but includes much content that requires subscriptions!

The app sends an excess of news having to do with Sweden and it’s culture, which is good.

But too often it sends articles from sites like The Local, which requires a paid subscription to view the content. That is quite annoying and should be excluded from the feed. Otherwise I can just listen to the free government-run news podcast.

Apple News does this as well, requiring several paid subscriptions to get a good news feed.

I wouldn’t even mind paying a SINGLE price for this service IF it included full access to these articles from the paid sites, but I’m not interested in registering and paying multiple subspcription fees!

In Sweden we have a great news service from the government for free. Better to use that.
