I can confidently say that Otherweb has… I can confidently say that Otherweb has completely changed the way I consume news. As a user who values accuracy, clarity, and a clutter-free experience, Otherweb stands out as a beacon of trustworthiness in the often chaotic world of online information. It has successfully carved out a niche by prioritizing quality content and a user-friendly interface. If you're looking for a reliable source that delivers news without the noise, I highly recommend giving Otherweb a try.

Really good Really good,I like the ability to curate my own news feed and check any biases before I actually read the full article. My one nit pick is some articles will give you very short consise bullet points, while others will give you basically the whole article in bullet point form.

This app is incredible This app is incredible. When I downloaded it, I was skeptical. But it far exceeded my expectations. I get my news in the morning on the BBC World Service. I consider myself a knowledgeable person. I am also a high school English and History teacher. I love this app because it allows me to swipe left or right based on the interest level of a current story. I swiped left on articles that I found uninteresting and the app quickly learned to give me the kinds of information I wanted. When the app shows you a headline and you click through, the next page has convenient bullet pointed summary of the main ideas. This is excellent for those of us who are busy and may not have time to read a full length article. Additionally, there is a tab for punditry and the app allows you to select sources. I also has this clever analysis of the quality of the work called the "nutrition label". There, you get information on the tone, relative complexity and neutrality of the language. This function is truly outstanding not only for educators but also for all those who want to be selective about the quality of the information they consume! I often download news apps, find them lacking, and then uninstall them right away. I will not be doing that with Otherweb!

Fun way of getting the news! This app is super cool. You get all of the news you want and none of the stuff you don’t want. I love the swiping feature it makes it fun to read the news.
