With WorldFive.Info - news aggregator (a.k.a WorldFive): 60 seconds.

WorldFive is a news aggregator built on a radical idea — LESS. Every topic on Earth, distilled to the five stories the world is actually talking about, ranked #1 to #5. When you've read five, you're done. There is no six.

THE VALUE OF FIVE
WorldFive is designed to let you leave. Five stories per topic is enough to know what's happening — and few enough to have a life while knowing it.

■ Ranked, not piled — every story earns its number. #1 is the story of the moment, not the loudest headline.
■ Always fresh — rankings refresh automatically around the clock. Open the app, see the world as it is right now.
■ Eight essential topics — World, Top Stories, Business, Technology, Entertainment, Sports, Science, Health.
■ Straight to the source — tap a story and read it at the original publisher. We aggregate; journalists report.

ALERTS WITH MANNERS
Follow the topics you care about, and WorldFive notifies you exactly once — when a new story takes the #1 spot. Not when an editor wants traffic. Not when an algorithm senses you've been away too long. Only when the top of the world changes.

READY IN ZERO SECONDS
No account. No sign-up. No email. No "personalization quiz." Download, open, informed. That's the entire onboarding.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No location tracking. No advertising identifiers. No ads at all. Your reading habits are your business.
