There are 2 home screen widgets available when installing CNN application, which are:
CNN Small: This 4×1 widget shows the latest headlines of your selected news category. Tapping the news headline takes you to the full story. News headlines are updated automatically and we couldn’t find any manual setting to change the interval. We were expecting to be able to move between news headlines.
CNN Large: We loved this 3×2 home screen widget. After adding the widget, you are asked to select a category, and then the latest news are shown like a slide show which are updated automatically. To move to the next news, you just need to hold your finger on the widget and start swiping down. It deletes the latest news and show the next one. Swiping up brings back the deleted news. We were really surprised how smooth swiping is and we didn’t find any lags.
If CNN is your first choice for following news, then we should say its Android app is really worth installing and its user friendly design makes reading political news fun!
