Pick the blogs, shows, and creators you love, then let their headlines drift by on your Lock Screen and wrist instead of scrolling. No account needed.
Catch up on everything you follow at a glance, in one calm line that moves on its own. Slowire turns the sites, podcasts, and channels you choose into a news ticker for your Home Screen, Lock Screen, and Apple Watch.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Follow sites, podcasts, YouTube channels, and Bluesky or Mastodon accounts: paste a link, search a name, or pick one of nearly 200 topic packs
2. Add the Slowire widget to your Home Screen or Lock Screen
3. Glance whenever you like: new stories step by on their own, and a tap opens the one you want
SLOWIRE PRO
Free covers 15 sources, every widget, weather, podcasts, and local events and road closures near your places (road closures in many US states), and each widget can show its own topics or sources. Pro follows as many sources as you like and watches web pages for changes. Choose an annual subscription with a free first week for new subscribers, or a one-time purchase. Family Sharing is included.
