Hello, dearest community members!  
I wanted an idea: Actually, I have created a news app. Right now, the app is very simple: It just shows some news and images of people the news is about. I still feel like the app is incomplete, and I should add more features to it. One thing why I am getting really excited about adding more features to this application is because I am using the [AdMob](https://docs.thunkable.com/admob) component, and I want to generate revenue through my project. And I want to add more features because, it’ll increase the audience of my app, and I’ll be able to generate even more revenue. Any ideas?  
Regards,  
@thecodingmasterabeer

Sounds like a good idea.

Include a user preference and push notification that can be controlled by the user and only notify the news type or sources selected by the user in the preference section.

Just a thought.

I am a junior user too. i used Thunkable less than a year now. I am 54 though.

Use the stored variables to save the user selections and read the stored variables from the user device every time the app starts. You can start with the most obvious ones like [sports, education, politics, …] and then improve on preferences when enhancing your app.

Use Onesignal for the push notification to inform the user when the news type he/she is looking for arrived/updated

> Hi All, The Thunkable X documentation only shows you the possibility of using OneSignal to send notifications on bulk to your list of subscribed or active users. However many applications require the ability to send a notification to a specific user based on an action that occurs within the app. For example when I request an Uber, a notification is sent directly to me when my Uber is one minute away. We can do similar with OneSignal and Thunkable by doing the below (Note: you can’t live test P…
