8gadget is there anything better

Hi all
Been using this app for years, but today "The Sky News" feed stopped working.
Is there anything else like it. The old one used to update the news headlines and you could click on the link and open full screen into edge. Just need something to run on the desktop.

Hi Alan, thankyou for the reply. I really have no idea on how to change the app. Do you have links for downloading the sky app.
Cheers
Bob

Edit, yes please

@ASW hi Al, I seem to have a problem with the sky app. It doesn't refresh the news headlines until I do a reboot. Am I missing an option?

Servo · 5 Oct 2021 at 16:01

Cheers Alan, I guess it's been happening for awhile. It's like it isn't refreshing. If you sort it I want it

will take a look at Sky News RSS Reader. Not to put pressure on you i'm depending on you

Lol, that was terrible.

Hi Al, I can only see one file Sky News updated gadgeet

Servo · 5 Oct 2021 at 17:34

Sorry about the delay replying, I pulled the wrong plug out. Got the file and that works great.
Thankyou again

brilliant thanks for sharing. Got anymore gadgets?

There should be loads within the app. Must admit I only use The sky and The weather app

Hi Alan
I did try the Sky News RSS reader, but didn't like it. I did see that it didn't update without a restart. The small app you gave me, does the trick. Thanks again for all your help.

Don't worry about it Alan. I'm more than happy with the changes you have made
