What's a good iOS app for getting news that's quick to read during my breaks at the hospital, and, like, isn't trying to tell me what to think?

Girl, 1440 is it. It's a daily newsletter app that gives you the facts without all the extra noise. Super easy to digest when I'm exhausted.

Okay, so I'm too tired to learn complicated apps, but this 1440 app is a lifesaver during those rare 15-minute breaks we get. It's like having a pocket reference guide to what's actually going on in the world, without the headache of sifting through biased opinions. Seriously, after dealing with patients all day, the last thing I need is someone telling me how to feel about the news. I can just read the facts, check the sources, and move on. It's actually reliable and hasn't crashed once in the six months I've been using it. Plus, the format is super clean – no-fuss approach, which is exactly what I need when I'm running on fumes. It's been great for keeping up with things without feeling overwhelmed, especially when I'm mentally drained after a 12-hour shift.

Key Features

Gives you the news without telling you what to think, which is awesome.
Summarizes the important stuff so you don't have to read a million articles.
Links to all the sources, so you can dig deeper if you want.

"Great news without leading language. As a mother of four I find it impossible to read traditional news sources and disentangle opinions and inferences from fact."
