Investopedia is a popular Android application that provides access to a platform where users can read various news. Most articles are about financial reviews and economics.
Reading news
It is possible to be aware of the latest news regarding economic and political spheres. The former is usually more under the spotlight as the platform is considered a financial source. Users can find the most popular articles on the main page or look for certain reviews via a search bar.
What makes Investopedia convenient is that you do not have to pay in order to read news. The articles are free to access and share. Moreover, authors provide references to official sources. Thus, you may see that their reviews are not something they made up themselves.
Stocks
Similar to SHiFT, here users can learn on how to invest stocks properly. It is possible to access a market simulator and study online trading. This feature is also free. However, it is necessary to register or log in.
Please note that the money you spend on a simulator is not real. The only purpose it serves is to show you how approximately stock exchange markets work. You may also find out where to invest money.
