Description
Visual news reader with 7 categories, custom RSS feeds, saved stories, and background breaking-news alerts. NewsPro is a visual news reader extension. Every feature — from breaking-news notifications to the weather chip — exists for one purpose: helping you read and follow the news you care about, beautifully and efficiently. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ WHAT NEWSPRO DOES ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 7 BUILT-IN NEWS CATEGORIES Top news, Technology, Business, Science, Health, Entertainment, and Sports — all from BBC RSS feeds. Switch instantly with one tap. CUSTOM RSS FEEDS Add any RSS feed from any news site. Your feeds are saved and appear as chips alongside the built-in categories. FULL READER VIEW Tap any headline to open a clean, distraction-free reader view with the full article text and high-resolution image fetched directly from the source. No ads, no clutter. SAVED STORIES Star any article to save it. Saved stories persist across sessions and are available offline. BREAKING NEWS ALERTS NewsPro checks for new headlines every 15 minutes in the background and sends a desktop notification when a new top story breaks. Tap the notification to open the article. MORNING BRIEFING A daily 7 AM notification summarises the top story from News, Tech, and Business — your news before you open the browser. LIVE WEATHER Shows your current temperature and weather condition in the header. Uses IP-based approximate location — no GPS, no account required. READING STREAK Tracks how many consecutive days you open NewsPro. Keep your streak going. LIGHT & DARK THEME One-click theme toggle. Your preference is saved. READ ALOUD Tap the play button on any story to have it read aloud using your device's text-to-speech. ⌨ KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS J/↓ next story · K/↑ previous · Enter open reader · S save · F focus mode · Esc close ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ PRIVACY — NO DATA COLLECTED ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ NewsPro collects zero personal data. Everything is stored locally in your browser using chrome.storage.local. No developer server exists. No analytics. No tracking. External connections made: - BBC RSS feeds — to fetch news (no personal data sent) - ipapi.co / open-meteo.com — to show weather via approximate IP location (your IP is sent to determine city; no account required; result is cached locally for 30 minutes) - News article URLs — fetched only when you open the reader view, solely to display the article text inside the extension ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ PERMISSIONS EXPLAINED ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ - storage — saves your feeds, saved articles, theme, and streak locally - alarms — powers the 15-min news check and 7 AM morning briefing - notifications — displays breaking news and morning briefing alerts - Access to all URLs — NewsPro allows you to add any custom RSS feed from any domain. Because the feed URL is chosen by you at runtime, the extension cannot know the domain in advance. This permission is also used to fetch full article text from news sites when you open the reader view. No browsing data is collected or transmitted.
