Google Play Newsstand: One App to Read Newspapers, Magazines, Blogs & News Sites


Google Play has released Newsstand, a New Mobile App that integrates all your news consumption from newspapers, magazines, blogs and news sites in a single app.

This is great since prior to this integration you have to install two separate apps to achieve the same functionality: Play Magazine app  to subscribe and read newspapers / magazines & Google Currents to consume content from blogs and news sites.

This app already includes links to majority of newspapers, magazines, blogs and news sites by nicely categorizing them into their respective fields. There is also a nice featured section with sites featured by Google.

Another benefit, If you are a previous Google Currents app user and you login into Play Newsstand with the same Google Account, your Google Currents subscription to blogs and sites are automatically imported into Newsstand. Nice huh!

This app also has a nice Read it Later feature called Bookmarks. While reading any article look for the ribbon icon on the top right, just tap it to bookmark that article. All your read it later bookmarks will appear under the bookmark menu.

If you already had the previous Google Play Magazines App in your phone, you don’t have to do anything. Google Play will automatically update to the latest Newsstand app in the US, Canada, UK and Australia.

Otherwise you can always install or update the app from Google Playstore here.
