BC, Riga, 20.08.2015.Print version
Google has announced that ''Google News'' will soon be available in seven new languages – Romanian, Bahasa Indonesia, Bengali, Bulgarian, Latvian, Lithuanian, and Thai, reports BBC/LETA.
The new languages will be available in "the next few days", according to Google.
Google claims this will add a potential audience of over 260 million new readers to news, with the native language versions available on the web or the Android and iOS mobile apps.
The ''Google News & Weather'' app received a huge version 2.0 release last summer after languishing as a stock Android widget for years, and its popularity has boomed in the meantime, racking up between 100 million and 500 million installs on the ''Play Store''.
