The majority of mobile news apps will simply display top stories in an organized manner, but the 'Conveyr' app takes things in a different direction. Featuring a swiping style of navigation, 'Conveyr' provides users with five news stories at a time. Swiping left will dismiss stories you don't have an interest in reading, while swiping right will open the story for you to read in full.

The 'Conveyr' mobile news app draws on the immensely popular [swipe style of navigation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foodie-call) that was popularized by [Tinder](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tinder-explore) and ensures that users are always provides with fresh content.
