What happened to the BBC News app? As part of our mission to better serve digital audiences, we have launched an all-new app experience that will bring together more content from across the BBC.

If you need a rollback of BBC News, check out the app's version history on Uptodown. It includes all the file versions available to download off Uptodown for that app. Download rollbacks of BBC News for Android. Any version of BBC News distributed on Uptodown is completely virus-free and free to download at no cost.

You don't need a TV Licence to read anything or watch news clips online on the BBC website. However, if you want to stream live news via the BBC news website, you do need a TV Licence. You can read BBC news online on the BBC news app or website without a TV Licence.

How do I add a widget to my homescreen? The latest version of the BBC News app offers you an at-a-glance view of the headlines, right on your Android homescreen. To add a widget to your homescreen, find an available space on your screen and then long-press to bring up a list of available widgets.
