Watchup, the once-buzzy news video streaming service, is trying its hand again at the news game with a relaunch this week.*
The new app emphasizes speed, with the company claiming to get users to video three times faster.*
Founded in 2012, Watchup (http://watchup.com/) gained some attention in 2014 when it was named one of the best apps of the year by Google. In the same year, the company raised $3.75 million in funding, according to Crunchbase (https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/watchup#/entity).*
In the two years since, Watchup has flown under the radar.
