PageOne
Curate news, learn user preferences, and provide comprehensive news feed on iPhone and Android.
What is PageOne?
PageOne is a mobile news app that learns what you care about and delivers a personalised feed. Rather than showing you what an algorithm thinks is trending, it focuses on understanding your actual reading behaviour and preferences over time. The app works on both iPhone and Android, making it easy to catch up on news wherever you are. It uses a freemium model, so you can try the core features without paying upfront.
