News app that rewrites headlines and articles into flat, fact-first summaries
Boring Report takes daily news stories and runs them through language models that strip out sensational wording, leaving short summaries that link back to the original sources. It is an Apple-side reading app rather than a web product: the site is a landing page and the reading happens in the App Store app, which also runs on iPad and Apple silicon Macs. Features are deliberately small, covering categories, saved articles, text sizing, search and a reading streak. There is no subscription; the developer funds it with an optional PayPal donation button on the site.
Free with no listed in-app purchases; the official site asks readers to cover running costs through a PayPal donation button.
Use tool ↗A genuinely narrow tool that does one thing: flattens clickbait into plain summaries with the source link attached. The catch is that it is Apple-only and free by donation, so its future rests on one developer's willingness to keep paying the model bill.
Watch out: Rewriting is done by a model, so verify anything consequential against the linked source rather than trusting the summary alone.
