I built Article One, an iPhone app for one sourced industry briefing per day

Article One

A — Answer: Article One solves the problem of keeping up with tech industry news without doomscrolling. Instead of an endless feed, it sends one curated briefing every afternoon, written in clear sections and designed to be read in a few minutes.

B — Better: Compared with Apple News, Article One is more focused and transparent. There’s no algorithmic feed, no vague posts, or rage bait. Every claim is attributed. You can tap any passage to see the original account/post on X that contributed the insight.

C — Cost: Free to start: 3 full digests per month. Article One Unlimited is $1.99/month for unlimited daily reads and full archive access.

Any feedback is appreciated.

Are there any features you would want? Are there certain topics you would like covered?

I built an iOS app that replaces Twitter doomscrolling with one sourced tech briefing per day

I kept opening X to stay on top of the daily tech news, and got tired of sifting through all the vague posts and rage bait.

So I built Article One - an iOS app that delivers one curated tech briefing every afternoon you can read in a few minutes.

The thing that's nice is that it all links back to either the person's post or profile. Tap any passage and you see exactly which account on X contributed that insight. I wanted the clarity of a written briefing without losing the ability to look further into something and see how people are reacting to it.

How it works:

  • Pulls from a curated list of accounts I put together on X
  • One digest per day, sectioned by topic
  • No infinite feed, no algorithm
  • Push notification when the afternoon briefing drops

Pricing:

  • Free: 3 full digests per month
  • $1.99/month for unlimited access + archive

Solo project - took about a week and a half to build and ship.

Would love feedback - especially on whether one briefing per day feels like enough, or if you'd want something more frequent.

Happy to answer questions about the build.

Would you use a recipe app that's intentionally simple?

I've tried Paprika, Notes, screenshots, bookmarks, and a few other recipe apps, and I always end up with recipes scattered everywhere.

Most apps seem to add grocery lists, meal planning, subscriptions, AI, and a bunch of features I never touch.

It made me wonder whether there's room for something much simpler—a beautiful digital recipe box focused on collecting recipes and making them enjoyable to revisit.

Is that something anyone would actually want, or do the existing apps already cover what you need?

If you've stopped using a recipe app before, what made you stop? And if you've stuck with one, what keeps you using it?
