BBC News Worldwide Now Available for Other Countries

The BBC news app released for the United Kingdom last week was nice, but unfortunately wasn’t available for a good majority of people around the world. That’s changed today, though, with the release of BBC News Worldwide. The full feature set is below, but if you are eager to get your hands on this after most of the globe was snubbed last week, head to the Android market to download it.
