Ever wondered why 60 percent of news items scheduled in a
bulletin really have nothing to do with you?
Have you wished for consistent news that intelligently gives
you information about your career, business, course of study and relationship?
Don’t let anyone tell you it’s impossible, all you need is to
have a source that gives you an edge.
Hi, nice to meet you. I am Bounce News. I formally launched
in Nigeria on the 9th of August, 2017.
Bounce News is dedicated to delivering daily
inspiring and relevant stories tailored to empower Nigerians and give everyone a
voice in the polity.
How?
By studying search patterns and activities on social
media to know the kind of stories that interest its readers, Bounce News is
ableto make recommendations while transforming basic information into applied
intelligence.
With the Bounceapp, users receive news items which
help them make informed decisions about their personal lives, careers and businesses.
Speaking during the launch of the app in Lagos
on August 9, 2017, General Manager at
Bounce News Goodluck Ikporo said:
“When you first launch BOUNCE, you’ll be given
the option to select which interests you prefer to follow. This defines the initial
set of content BOUNCE will show to you. BOUNCE will look at your profiles and
the content you have publicly shared to find additional interests that could be
relevant to you.”
He added that BOUNCE also analyses user activity
on the app to find out what kind of stories they read or skip, and any action
taken around stories (like using the thumbs up or thumbs down).
Each of these actions teaches Bounce a little bit
about users’ interests and over time, it will get pretty good at predicting
which stories you love.
Bounce News, which is already popular among
Nigerians of various demographics, offers a range of exciting news items that
cuts across - politics, entertainment, business, sports, fashion, education,
tech and law & crime.
Unlike regular news apps, BOUNCE NEWS
significantly improves the experience of consuming news on the internet as it
is designed to function optimally on slower networks or low data. You can save
stories and read offline.
Bounce News brings the
world to you and gives you that edge you need to share your unique experience
with the rest of the world.
