Daily Random Facts ١٢+

Pretty great, but a few minor issues. PLEASE READ!

Honestly, this is a great app! It is super interesting, and really engaging! I’ve had it for a few weeks now, I really like it! Although, I have a few problems with it. First of all, some of the facts aren’t even true. This is a really big issue for me, because I don’t like being lied to. Also, for the human body category, the cover image is slightly inappropriate. I’m also a little frustrated with the fact I can’t access over half the app because of the subscription stuff. I don’t really want to pay for an app. Maybe, like, allow a few more categories for unsubscribed viewers. Although, I can understand why they charge you for it, so this isn’t really a BIG problem. Lastly, some of the facts are kinda inappropriate. Like, one of them was about, uh, someone’s privates. Those facts really make me uncomfortable. But, all things considered, it really is a great app! Thank you soooo much!

fact check your "facts"

I only subscribe to the history category but will not pay for others based on what I've seen so far. Many of the presented "facts" are the equivalent of click bait; skewed summations of either true, partially true, or entirely untrue information, often distilled from click bait titles themselves so there's multiple layers of lazy information interpretation and distribution (basically the game "telephone").

For example, that Shakespeare invented the words "bump" and "assassination." If you look beyond under-researched blogs to legitimate sources you find that is not true, and is actually the product of other lazy researchers who listed words in the OED dictionary as derived from Shakespeare simply because he was more interesting to read than the legal tomes and historical records preceding him that used many of the words attributed to him, which in itself is fascinating, so why distort it? (source- Merriam Webster dictionary, "Ten words Shakespeare never invented"). These discrepancies become more serious in the "facts" pertaining to legacies of genocide, slavery, sexual violence and the like that are very common in this category.

The way information is curated and shared is political. It should not be treated as click bait commodity. Do better research and present information accurately. There is still a plethora of amazing and actually true facts to be shared without manipulation.

Would recommend downloading! + Please add this fact!

You can scroll and read all you want, and get smarter everyday! You can even change the background, into the suitable type you want with the wallpapers or from your photos! This app is pleasing, but if this fact is not in the app yet, here is the fact: “Did you know that if you leave your charger plugged to your outlet, while it isn’t charging anything, electricity could still leak from the plugged charger, and that electricity energy would go to waste as heat.” (Source: Google)
