If you can’t get enough of news- Geo News has introduced a chatbot on Facebook messenger and our website to take care of your needs.
This new service by Geo News lets users get the information they need without having to spend time browsing through articles.
User conversation starts with a small on-boarding session where Geo News chatbot walks a person through some of the basic features on how it works and helps them find latest news, headlines, program episodes and so much more.
