About News on the Kenya App Store
News covers major newspaper and broadcaster apps, news aggregators (Apple News, Flipboard), business and financial news clients, sports news, and topic-specific outlets. Rankings are highly correlated with current events: major news cycles drive sudden spikes for individual outlets, and paywall changes can shift the free vs paid charts. The category is one of the more regional ones — local outlets dominate local stores. Rankings update daily.
