Agora turns the biggest story of the day into a competitive game. It does not care about what you think. It cares about how you think: how you use evidence, judge uncertainty, spot weak arguments and update your view. Win the daily game by out-reasoning your opponent. Play against friends or take on the wider Agora community.
PLAY THE NEWS : Understand the biggest story of the day through fast, fun games. Learn by playing trivia, true or false challenges, interactive briefings, puzzles and debates.
REASON: Answer questions, decide how confident you are and earn Reasoning Chips through play.
COMPETE : Out reason your friends or test yourself against the wider Agora community.
DISCOVER HOW YOU THINK : Track your reasoning over time. Agora reveals your strengths, weaknesses, hidden biases and the patterns shaping how you understand the world, including those you may never have noticed yourself.
MAKE YOUR OPINION COUNT : Use the Reasoning Chips you earn to support the issues Agora should focus on. The better you reason, the more influence you have within the community.
Agora is for people who want to understand the world, not simply scroll through it.
Agora: Play The News app is thought provoking. In a world where the news manipulates and social networks cause friction and anger, Agora is one to restore your faith in humanity. The news story makes you consider what you would do in the situation of leader. This shows how many others agree or disagree and steps away from the absurd thinking of everyone is left or right. This app is well laid out and easy to understand. It’s fun too! This app deserves an award as it’s the best app I’ve used in many years.
Purposeful and interesting, without losing any of the fun.

Brilliant app. Combines a fun, varied and competitive format with genuine opportunities to learn more about global affairs, share your own insights and hear the perspectives of your mates and other users. Agora will definitely make you question your ability to reason and encourages a degree of balance, nuance and foresight which is definitely lacking in the 21st century. Worth a download.
First of its kind

Not come across concept like this. The app is extremely well integrated and interactive to use. The stories are fun and engaging to play with the information being diverse and accessible. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique and stimulating experience away from the “brain rot” of your average mobile apps.
REALLY RECOMMEND!!

Really great way to get you thinking about what you think. Very easy to use and engaging - can’t wait for tomorrow’s! Having the sources in the briefs is a nice touch and I like how it’s testing knowledge and engaging your brain in multiple ways with different question styles.
