One story, not five. When lots of outlets cover the same event, you get a single card with one clear summary, instead of the same headline over and over. Factual Reader is a news app for people who want context, not noise. Pick your sources. Read what matters. Get the full picture — translated from any language, verified against independent sources, and summarized when you don't have time for the full article. READ THE WORLD Subscribe to any RSS feed or YouTube channel. Headlines from German, Spanish, French, Japanese and 16 more languages are translated automatically into your language. DAILY BRIEFS Every day, your top stories are condensed into 2–5 topic-based summaries. Catch up in 30 seconds over morning coffee. BEYOND THE HEADLINE For any article, get a deeper breakdown: key facts extracted, claims checked against independent sources, and what's missing from the story. Beyond skimming — actual understanding. PURE READING No comments. No ads. No "trending now" sidebar. Just clean typography, your chosen fonts, and a reading experience designed for focus. YOU CURATE No algorithm decides what you see. No engagement-bait surfacing. You pick the sources. You decide what's worth reading. BUILT FOR PROSUMERS Whether you're a journalist tracking stories across regions, a researcher monitoring industry news, or just someone who refuses to live in a filter bubble — Factual Reader is built for the way you actually read. FACTUAL EXPERT Expert unlocks unlimited translation of headlines and full articles, deeper article briefs with fact-checking, daily digests on demand (not just once a day), iCloud sync across devices, and premium app icons. Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage your subscription in App Store settings after purchase.

What's New • Choose your translation language during onboarding. Set it once when you sign up, no Settings hunt later. • Smoother feed scrolling. Title updates no longer cause subtle jumps, and the list stays smooth even when a large batch of new articles arrives at once. • Web fallback for paywalled articles. When a publisher blocks Reader mode, the app gracefully falls back to the original page. • Cross-language story summaries. When the sources of a developing-story card are in different languages, the summary stays in your chosen language. • Faster feed refresh for users with many subscriptions. A smarter time budget keeps every source in the loop instead of dropping the last few on slow networks. • Smarter search. The app no longer suggests outlets you're already subscribed to. • Factual Announcements are now translated into your chosen language. • A new alternate app icon to choose from in Settings. • Hundreds of small UI refinements and speed improvements across the app.
