[Published] News-app in English

bvdbos

Based on the NOS News-app I created one for the Huffington Post. It's submitted to the appstore for approval, meanwhile you can get it here:

If possible I wanna have region news from bn de stem. This is the rss feed I'm using http://www.bndestem.nl/cmlink/1.2018516
If you have some spare time, can you take a look at it?
If it's working I'm gonna give them a call for a demostration. So we can promote Homey!

@BasVanDenBosch i'm no programmer. So excuus me if i ask to much but isn't it possible to make the app a RSS reader?

The only thing it needs is a place where we van add the url to de rss feed.

Ofcourse it's possible  I've been experimenting with making apps for Homey a couple of days, I am going to give it a try when I have hte time.

If you look at the code, it's just a RSS-reader  I copied the whole code from the NOS-app, replaced the URL and some names, icons etc...

News from the Huffington Post now in the app-store....
https://apps.athom.com/app/nl.sasteren.huffpost-news

I'm inclining to take the first part of the message too or should I leave it with headlines (titles)?

I'm the dev (well: replaced the url in the NOS app ) of the huffington-post-app...
Google decrepated their api which was used in both the NOS and the Huffpo-app so we have to find a new solution.
As an alternative for now you could use this app: https://apps.athom.com/app/eu.jeroensomhorst.feedreader together with the following url http://www.huffingtonpost.com/feeds/news.xml

This app has been decrepated, for the new app see
