About Newsreel
Interactive news designed for modern attention spans
Exhausted by the news? We get it.
We’ve been there: endless articles, overwhelming headlines, and too many updates to keep track of. That’s why we built Newsreel, an app that simplifies the news and delivers it in bite-sized, swipeable carousels and timelines for context.
Newsreel is designed to:
• Launch a habit: Build a daily news routine without feeling drained.
• Focus your attention: Short, interactive briefings designed for your brain.
• Make reading fun: Timelines, quizzes, and context in one place.
