PressReader app brings news to your tablet

PressReader is an app that brings more than 3,500 national and international newspapers and magazines to your tablet (iOS or Android).

A new feature is the Home Feed, which creates a daily newspaper with the top news items you can customize. Along with the country of your choice, you can add specific sections (news, sports, etc.) or your own specific categories, such as technology.

PressReader gives you access to publications from 100-plus countries. (Your local paper might also be available.) In addition to the 344 dailies in the United States, choices include publications in China, Canada, Italy and Zimbabwe.

Once you choose the papers you want to download, you can get them daily or day to day, depending on your reading needs. Prices start at 99 cents; www.pressreader.com.
