About NewsFlash: Swipe the News

Most news apps are built to keep you scrolling. NewsFlash isn't. It takes the day's stories, checks each one against several outlets, and writes a short, plain summary you can read in about five seconds. Swipe right to save it, left to skip it. Once you've gone through the deck, you're caught up and the app stops. That's the whole idea. WHY NEWSFLASH We check stories first. Nothing reaches your deck until at least two independent newsrooms have reported it, so you're not reacting to a single outlet's hot take or a rumor that falls apart by morning. The summaries stick to facts. Each card is about five sentences, written by an AI model that's told to leave out the adjectives and the motive-guessing. When outlets describe something differently, we show you their actual wording instead of picking a side. You can see where it's coming from. Every card has a bias bar showing whether its sources lean left, center, or right, and you can tap any source to read the original in full. It learns on your phone. NewsFlash figures out what you're interested in from how you swipe, and that happens on your device. We don't upload it, and we couldn't sell it if we wanted to. No ads, no tracking. It's a paid app, which means we make money when the app is useful to you, not when you're angry and still scrolling. And it ends. When you've seen the day's news, the app says so. There's no bottomless feed. HOW IT WORKS 1. Swipe right to save a card. 2. Swipe left to skip it. 3. Swipe up if you've already seen the story — it hides without affecting what you get shown next. 4. Tap a source to open the original article. Pick three topics when you start and the feed fills up right away. Give it about ten swipes and it'll have a feel for what you want.
