Heavy Headlines
Heavy Headlines is a metal news app designed specifically for metalheads. Developed by a metal fan, this app aims to provide a one-stop destination for all metal news, new album releases, and concert listings. The app is designed to be simple, user-friendly, and fun, with a sleek interface that incorporates innovative features of iOS and Apple devices. Some of the features include aggregating content from top metal news sources, a "My Bands" feature that surfaces news about users' favorite metal bands, the ability to explore new releases and top selling albums, and the option to purchase concert tickets directly through the app. It also offers background fetch integration, allowing for automatic refresh of metal news, and notifications for new stories about favorite bands. The app uses iCloud to synchronize settings and track read articles across multiple devices. With over 20 different themes inspired by iconic metal album covers, users can customize the look of the app. Heavy Headlines provides a sleek fullscreen reading experience and incorporates various "metal" touches throughout the app. Note that users need to allow the app to refresh content in the background for notifications to work properly.
