09 Apr 2013

Nasdaq listed Rediff.com, which has launched its news app on Android last September, has extended it to iOS, BlackBerry, Windows 8, Java and Symbian operating systems. The company claims to aggregate news from over 30,000 Indian and International sources including big names like Reuters, The New York Times, Washington Post, The Times of India and The Hindu, among others.

Users can download the app from http://m.rediff.com/newsapp or from all app stores.

The interface of the app allows users to tap on an image to get a summary of the news and a further tap takes him/her to the full article on the original news source. The ‘Also read’ feature helps users discover more news as they browse related content. The app also provides an offline access to previously downloaded news content.

Ajit Balakrishnan, Chairman and CEO, Rediff.com said, “Our launch of the Rediff News app that can work on almost all mobile phones provides users with better access to worldwide news and enhances search functionality.  This is part of our continued strategy of enhancing our offerings to improve the Rediff user experience and positions Rediff to take advantage of future growth opportunities.”
