" ...absolutely love this app for the Mac. As a kid, I remember sitting in the car around the top-of-the-hour and waiting for my dad to turn on the radio for the news updates. This is that, but from a wide variety of sources (NPR, BBC, ESPN, etc) and always right there on your desktop. Brilliant idea. ...Yep, iOS version just as awesome. "
" Whether purely for the sake of nostalgia or for actually taking in the information, Hourly News App will present you with a collection of up-to-the-hour news... I would rather have one app do one task extremely well than an app which poorly presents me with four separate options and Hourly News App takes advantage of people who think along the same lines. "
