Al Jazeera - الجزيرة

Global news in one app

Al Jazeera - الجزيرة is a news and magazines app from Al Jazeera Network for readers who want international coverage, breaking updates, and reporting from regions often given less space in general news feeds. It brings together written stories, live coverage, video, audio, and longer analysis in a single mobile news reader.

What it covers

The app is built around current affairs, with coverage spanning politics, business, health, sport, and major world events. Users can follow developing stories through breaking-news updates, read full articles, and switch to video reports or live broadcasts when a story is unfolding. Audio and podcast content offers another way to follow selected reports without keeping the screen open.

• International news and current affairs reporting
• Breaking-news notifications for developing stories
• Live broadcast and on-demand video content
• Audio and podcast programming alongside articles
• Coverage organised across several major news topics

Who it suits

This is a practical fit for readers who want a broad international view rather than a local-only news feed. It also suits people who move between formats: reading articles during a quick check, watching a report for more context, or listening to audio while doing something else. Video and live-stream use may require more data than text-only browsing.

Listing details

The app is listed in News & Magazines and has a 4.8 rating from 120,732 reviews, with 1,000,000+ installs. Its package is com.aljazeera.mobile. Those figures point to an established app with a substantial Android audience, while the format mix makes it more than a simple headline reader.
