About this app

SmartUp: Get Smart by being an active participant in the news you get! SmartUp is a news app that allows readers and users to be actively involved in the news. Not only can you read latest news updates, but you can share views & see what other users are saying, predict news, read news in short, challenge experts to level up, and build confidence along the way!

Reading News has always been a passive one-sided communication.To change up this process, SmartUp is allowing users to be actively involved with news feed and be a part of the process. By engaging with news in forms of leaving comments, likes and predictions you become a part of the team.

SmartUp takes care of its busy users, and has inculcated an interesting “Radio News” feature, wherein, users can even listen to the news. This allows the users to never miss out on the latest news feed and listen to it, even when app is not active or in the background. Which means that you can multitask while using other apps, by just listening to Radio News!

The main objective of this app is to make the user actively involved with the ongoing news and keep them updated at all times. You will get an option to share your opinions on each news, and will also have the option to type or leave voice comments! The other users will have a choice to read or listen to everyone’s views as well.

Knowing how much you love forecasting, SmartUp has introduced a ‘Predict News’ feature. This lets the user predict news and guess what’s going to happen next! The app will let you know about any upcoming big events and allow you to predict the news. Which means you can now boast about your intutive skills and let us know about how Smart you are! This allows users to stay updated with upcoming news & be actively involved with it. You can unlock this feature by fulfilling the specific criteria.
