NRC - Nieuws en achtergronden

The free NRC app offers the latest news, background information, interviews and of course the digital version of the paper newspaper. You will also find podcasts, columns and puzzles there. And you will find the option to put together your own news bundle and always be informed about your topics.

In the 'news' tab you can find out what is going on: the most important news is always at the top. Read something you'd like to share? This can easily be done via the share button. Would you like to be immediately informed of urgent news? Set notifications.

Save an article that you want to read later in your personal reading list. This can be done from both the digital newspaper and the 'news' tab. Your reading list is synced across all devices where you are logged in.

You can follow topics at NRC to create a personal news overview. Appropriate topics to follow are suggested at the bottom of each article. For example: American politics or artificial intelligence. Other news themes, columnists and features can also be found in the app. If you follow a number of topics, a personal collection of stories will be created in the 'My News' section. You can also set notifications for your topics.

Do you prefer listening to articles? All our articles can be listened to in the app. Our journalism is narrated by voices based on the voices of two of our editors.

Would you rather listen to a podcast? NRC offers its own podcasts on various current topics, as well as series about culture, crime or history. Or listen to one of the tips from our podcast editors.

The latest newspaper is available in the app every day at 11:00 PM. After downloading the newspaper you can continue reading offline. New users receive the first newspaper for free. As a non-subscriber you can buy individual newspapers in the app. NRC subscribers can read the digital newspaper unlimitedly.
