Hello Product Hunters! Last time you gave us a lot of love, so we decided to launch something even cooler this time. Android and iOS apps! Look, it's really simple. The internet is full of clickbait, eye-catchers, autoplaying videos, fake news and other forms of digital junk. It is hard to avoid. All major search engines, social networks, news aggregators and streaming apps are full of this rubbish. We're all drowning in it. So we are creating the one place where you can just.. be informed. * We aggregate news, opinion columns, podcasts, research studies, and many other sources of information - in one place. * We apply heavy filtering to remove all the junk. * We give YOU the tools to customize your feed with complete transparency, so you can consume high-quality content and get informed as quickly and as efficiently as possible. The end result is a mobile app that allows you to read, enjoy, and.. that's it. There's no anger, no frustration, no desire to shout at the sky or bang your head against the wall. No staring at the clock and wondering where 2 hours have gone. No regrets. Only pure, pristine information. Please join us and help make the internet sane again! Yours, A.

Congratulations, Alex! Great improvements since last launch. These mobile apps were really lacking because usually I'm reading news on my mobile, not PC. And now I have it :) I definitely like these news and op-eds feeds. This summary text feels very convenient than reading a lot of unnecessary noise. By the way, these feeds is a great tool to find new news sources without the need leaving the app. Few my wishes for a further functionality: - add more customization options for the feeds. Current functionality is enough to start, but sometimes I really want to see something specific. - add more news categories. Personally I'm missing games and movies, but I don't mind to see more categories - I like to find for new stuff. - add something like discussions. Sometimes I want to read discussion about current trending topic, and sometimes I want to participate in this discussion. By the way, have you ever considered functionality like user news? So that anyone can join and start writing their own news and op-eds. Something like mix of personal blog and discussions. I know it is usually not related to news, but still it looks interesting for me to read articles of ordinary users. Anyway, great success! Keep going, I'm looking for more interesting stuff from you in future. Best wishes, Sergey.

Awesome! I can get all information what I want to take in one place, especially news feed is wonderful, no rubbish, I am now able to get news from my interests without any junk. Great!
