NewsFilter

An app that realizes news keyword search and web browsing

I implement this project in an iOS app development course in 2018.

This small app functions as a news search engine. Users input keywords (support Chinese) in the search bar, and the app returns a list of related news. Several options (genre, sorting) can be choosed to filter and present the results. In additional, this app support users to save favorite news.

Features:

  • News Retrieval: I use naive matching to retrieve news. Only news whose title contains all inputted keywords is retrieved.
  • News Sources: I crawl news from Phoenix news.

Demo:

left: entrance page; right: search result page.
left: page after clicking a news; right: save a news.
left: browse the collection of saved news; right: delete a save.
