umano :News read to you by real people

In this busy lifestyle nobody's got time to check news on their phone.And there comes a brilliant invention,an idea that's simply brilliant...it's called 'umano'.

 

Umano is given the 'best concept of 2013' award by google play.The UI is just brilliant.The idea behind umano is to give the latest and best news and read them out for you.It supports android kitkat's 'full screen playback on lockscreen' feature.It has a number of narrators(real people) who read out the news for you.You can also join as a narrator at :http://umanoapp.com/narrators

 

Let's check out the detailed summary on umano

 

START SCREEN

The app gives you a login option at the first startup.You can skip this step,but if you do so then you'll miss out on several feature like favourites,community etc.

CHOOSE YOUR INTERESTS

The app let's you choose your intrests and modifies the news content accordingly.Again,you can configure this later.

THE INTERFACE

The app interface is just simple,elegant and easy to use.It's divided into catergories and section.

LEFT SWIPE SHORTCUTS

just like the play store and gmail app...Even umano supports left swipe gestures that reveals a menu loaded with quick access.

THE IN-APP MENU

The in-app menu include a special feature called Car-mode.

Other than that; a music player like interface makes it easy to browse the news feed.

CAR MODE

This feature looks a lot like the one found in tune-in radio.

It gives you a full screen interface and large buttons so that you can access the news feeds easily while driving a car.
