SquidApp is a personalized news service organized by categories that is available in more than 60 European and Latin American countries and is mainly aimed at a young audience. One of the highlights of this app is its customization options: users have more than 100 categories to design their news timeline and choose the topics they prefer to read about. Squid is also the official news provider for Huawei phones, appearing not only in its browser but also in its widget and Petal Search.
You can choose everything from the most important headlines to news about your city or province, as well as sports, health, science, technology, food, lifestyle, politics, psychology… among many others.
How Squid works
It is a completely free app and does not require registration to use it. To install it, you only need to go to the Play Store if your phone is Android or to the App Store if you have an iPhone and download it.
Once it is installed on your device, open it and select the categories you prefer. This will create a personalized news homepage where you will be able to read Maldita.es fact-checks and our articles about science, technology, data, food and Maldita Te Explica.
At Maldita.es we always say that one of the best ways to fight disinformation is by sharing verified information and data. SquidApp makes this possible: the app allows you to share the articles that interest you most directly with your friends, family or contacts through WhatsApp, Telegram and other social networks. Because together it is much harder for them to fool us.
