Positive News1.5 - App Store

Positive News is a gentler way to stay informed: a hand-curated mix of uplifting stories from independent and mainstream publishers who already report on solutions, kindness, science, nature, and everyday wins.

Why people use it

. Less noise, more hope - One scrollable Today feed with clear sections, not an endless argument machine.

. Feed safety you can tune - Dial how strongly the app filters heavy topics (war, cruelty, politics, and more) with a simple strength control in Settings, so the mix stays as calm or as open as you want.

. Read state that sticks - Stories you’ve opened dim with a clear “Read” badge, and that state is saved even if you force-quit the app.

. Little lifts in the feed - Alongside the news you’ll find sprinkle cards for daily affirmations (with shuffle), good-deed challenges, mood resets, tiny gratitude prompts, a wins tracker, and a hopeful stat of the day-designed to feel distinct from ordinary story cards.

. Glow tab - Open the Glow tab anytime to see today’s progress and your momentum: streaks and totals for deeds, mood resets, gratitude reflections, and wins. It’s all saved on your device.

. Real headlines, real sources - Stories come from public RSS feeds; when you read the full piece, you open the publisher’s own site (in an in-app browser on iPad, or a familiar sheet on iPhone) so attribution stays obvious.

. You stay in control - Emphasize topics that matter to you, show or hide preview images, and tune topic tags on cards. Scoring and matching run on your device; we don’t need an account to learn what you tap.

. Saved & searchable - Star what you want to revisit and search within the feed you’ve already loaded.

. Optional Pro - Positive News Pro unlocks the full Today layout-everything below Top Stories-so kindness, nature, humor, and the rest of your mix stay in one calm place. Your first days after install include the full feed; after that, Pro is there if you want it. Manage or cancel anytime.

We don’t host full articles or pretend to be those newsrooms. We aggregate short previews so you can decide what to open. Images may come from the feed or a one-time fetch of the story page on your device to fill a preview-not a data grab on our servers.

If you want a calmer relationship with the news-honest stories, clearly credited, on your terms-welcome to Positive News.
