You can find the same bold headline cards from the Select app in our primary app’s “Discover” section.
Through experimenting with two distinct news apps over the years, we have learned a lot about how to improve our products to better meet your needs. The two apps’ features and experiences have grown closer over time, so we are bringing the best parts of the Select app (blue icon) to the primary Washington Post app (black icon). The Select app is no longer available on iOS and Android, but you can access every story from The Post and helpful new features inside our primary app. Download it here.
What about The Washington Post Select app for Amazon Fire tablets?
