App of the Day - VOX Report
Thursday, October 16, 2014
The free social Android and iOS app called VOX Report is our
App of the Day. It is an excellent app for all those who want to see and share
journalist videos from all around the world. After you sign up you can do
various things within the app.
First of all VOX Report allows you to upload 60 second video
of news and events around you. You must use the effective reporting format – 5 Ws
and H (Who, What, Where, Why, When and How). The users need to provide
on-street perspective of a local event.
Then all users can comment, like or share the video. You can
do the same thing as user, you can post, respond, comment and rate any of the
videos posted.
The idea of VOX Report is to support the citizen reporters
and journalists. The app and the developers strive for unedited and unfiltered
content. The content needs to not be linked with any of the news channels. Some
of the interesting additional features include ability to track stories of
interest, sharing on social media and selecting favorites and sections.
At the end of the day VOX Report offers something unique. It
can be voice of the citizens, citizen journalism that will show the real and
true story of any event. Also if your goal is to become journalist or reporter,
or you are already a reporter, then you must try this app.
