Adario Strange says, “Facebook is preparing to launch its own real-time news notification app in a bid to lure people away from Twitter.

A source familiar with the matter confirmed to Mashable that the app is indeed in development, although a specific launch date has not been revealed.

Rumors surrounding the app surfaced earlier this week on The Awl, which stated the app would be called Notify. The report also showed screenshots of the app on what appears to be iOS.

Instead of focusing on aggregating the news itself, the app appears to pull together the next best thing: headline notifications from your preferred news sources“.
