<p><strong> 27</strong> - It's important to select another notification sound, otherwise there's a possibility that you might confuse the default for a whatsapp/sms/other apps notifications. I like &quot;Run&quot; the most because it stands apart. </p>

<p><strong>YOU DID IT! </strong>All the news will be visible in the widget from now on. You can add as many &quot;rss&quot; links as you want by following this tutorial. The widget comes with an infinite scroll feature as well.</p>

<p><br /></p>
<p>Will be back for the IOS tutorial...</p>

<p><strong>IMPORTANT - If you think that you are not receiving sufficient news, then go to STEP 4 and where it says &quot;How Many&quot;, replace &quot;Only the best results&quot; with &quot;All results&quot;. That's it. You don't have to repeat the other steps</strong></p>
