BriefTea: News You Get

The news app that explains what it assumes you already know.

Most news assumes you already know who everyone is and how everything works. BriefTea doesn't. Every story is 80 words of plain English, and when a story loses you, open its Knowledge Galaxy: tap the people, places, and terms you don't recognise and explore them until the whole thing finally makes sense.

WHY PEOPLE STAY

• Every story in 80 words. Read one in 20 seconds.
• Knowledge Galaxy: the background you were assumed to have, one tap away.
• A daily news quiz with streaks - see how much you actually took in.
• Free. No ads. No paywall. No opinions dressed up as facts.
• Clear, neutral UK and world news, refreshed through the day.

Made in the UK by one person, for anyone who's ever quietly closed a news app because it made them feel behind.
