Stop scrolling noise. Start reading what matters.
Driftly is a privacy-first news reader built around one idea: your attention is valuable. No account. No algorithm selling your data. Just the stories you care about, in a clean full-screen feed.
What makes Driftly different
No account required, your feeds, saves, and settings live entirely on your device. Nothing leaves it.
Full-screen immersive reading, swipe through news the way it's meant to be experienced, not crammed into a cluttered list.
7 AI-powered insight modes go beyond the headline. Ask Driftly to summarize, pull key takeaways, explain in plain English, tell you why it matters, who's involved, the other side of the story, or what happens next.
Apple Intelligence integration for on-device AI summaries for iOS 26+ users, no data sent anywhere.
30+ curated sources across Technology, Business, World, Science, Sports, Entertainment, and Health with custom RSS, Reddit, and topic-based digest support for power users.
