FOMO turns tech news into a game. When a major story breaks in tech, AI, or startups, you get one push notification — and 4 minutes to answer a quiz question about it. Answer fast, build streaks, climb the leaderboard. Then read the brief: a short, sharp, slightly sarcastic take on what happened and why it actually matters. HOW IT WORKS • Breaking news drops → you get a push • 24h to answer, one shot, four choices • Points for being right, bonuses for being fast, streaks for being consistent • Then the FOMO Brief: what happened, why it matters, the cynical read, and what to watch next THE 7-DAY RACE The leaderboard only counts your last 7 days. Nobody sits on a lead — skip a few days and you slide, play sharp for a week and you can top the board. NO NOISE No feed. No doomscrolling. No ads. Just the stories that matter, a few times a day, curated by humans with opinions. FOMO is free. The only thing at stake is knowing what matters before everyone else — and proving it. Made for founders, engineers, investors, and anyone who refuses to be the last to know.

The biggest update yet. New scoring, a weekly league, your stats go public, and your friends are no longer safe. LIVE QUESTIONS: open a question within 5 minutes of the push and every point is multiplied by 10. Be fast or miss the bonus, that is the FOMO. THE COUNTDOWN: the question types out, then our mascot becomes the timer and counts down from 10 while you pick your answer. Opening a question commits you, no peeking. SCOUT LEAGUE: the leaderboard resets every Sunday at 8 PM New York time. Everyone starts the week at zero, and your final rank is delivered when the week closes. Podium finishers, prepare to brag. YOUR STATS: accuracy, daily streak, live catch rate, best correct run, your strongest topic and your blind spot. Compare every stat head to head with your friends, then share the duel card when you win. Or when you lose, we do not judge. CHALLENGE YOUR FRIENDS: share any story and they play the question right from iMessage, no install needed. Then they will install it anyway. They always do. Also new: community stats on every story, and a mascot with a life of her own. Tap her, watch her, get an answer wrong and see what happens. Enable notifications to catch questions while they are live.
