Just installed.
Very little content, only like 5 articles from each newspaper.
The Good/Bad/All bar steals a lot of usable space even tho it's probably going to be used only once to set up.
All news are mostly political.
I just hate so much that the headline is above the picture. Article frame should be split vertically, so that the picture is on the left, and the headline and summary on the right.
The good/bad news algorithm is not very precise.
You can also add discuss on reddit/hn button.
Otherwise it's a pretty nice newsreader with 3.3MB installation size and it works very fast even on my old nexus5.
Thanks a lot for your recommendations about the UI and the app in general. I'll update it in a near future. It's my first Android project ("just for fun") and I hope you will use SentiNews from time to time.

You can swipe beetwen pages and see different news topics (not only politic news). SentiNews includes a lot of categories (Sport, Technology, Science and etc.) from the most popular news sources.
I really like the concept of this app! Could you explain how the app determines whether a news article is good or bad? What kind of algorithms do you use?
The app uses algorithms of sentiment analysis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentiment_analysis All news classify by their positive/negative features. A lot of news sources for different languages were analyzed to automatically extract the typical "good" or "bad" patterns for classification.
Will use it for couple more days.
