Google app allows users to flag misleading articles on ‘Discover’ feed

Google in its latest update to its app now allows users to report misleading articles on the ‘Discover’ feed.

The ‘Discover’ Feed option provides curated articles to users based on their interests and ad viewing habits for Google Pixel and Google app users. Users can now report misleading content as “misleading or sensational,” “violent or repulsive,” “hateful or abusive” and “other,” Engadget reported.

The ‘other’ option, however, does not let users specify the reason for flagging an article. Users can report these articles by clicking on the three-dots icon located toward the bottom right corner of an article card and selecting “Report content.” Currently, the feature is available for users with Google app version 10.99 or later.
