Hear from our Readers

Newz Hook has always amazed me for driving a web-accessible online portal. Presently we have many online media portals that brings in different categories of news. I feel, what made Newzhook distinctive among them is that, they publish real life heroes stories. It’s truly inspiring to read and acknowledge stories from different parts of the globe especially of those unsung heroz. Bravo to the entire team!

I am passionate about technologies for the blind as well as latest news on tech & social activities happening in the disability sector. My need to have a low vision friendly news app is totally fulfilled by NewzHook.

It is a very simple sign language of interpreter and mostly important news that matters to me. It's very helpful app.

I was very impressed with the website & the way even the simple elements have been kept in mind like font size and backdrop colour. Hats off to thinking differently!
