About

Naia is a daily news digest in Ukrainian. One issue a day: 10–15 top stories from Ukraine and the world, each a half-minute read. WHAT'S INSIDE • Eight sections: Ukrainian and world politics, economics, science, technology and AI, culture, design, UI/UX. • The gist in brief — and, separately, why it matters and what follows from it. • The source and a link to the original on every card, one tap away. STORIES, NOT ISOLATED HEADLINES Every item belongs to a story that runs for days or weeks. Under each card is its timeline: what came before and how the story developed. Older items gain new entries as the story moves on. SIDES OF THE STORY Who takes part in a story, what each side stands to gain, what it risks or where it stays silent — and the primary sources: statements, documents and posts from the parties themselves. KNOW WHO IS WRITING A source passport on every card: what kind of outlet it is, who pays for it, where it is edited and whether a paywall is waiting. PICK YOUR MOOD Some days carry too much heavy news. The mood filter keeps only the calm stories or drops the heaviest ones, and brings everything back in one move. HOW IT WORKS Every night Naia reads more than thirty publications — from Ukrainska Pravda, Suspilne and Babel to Bloomberg, Nature, The Guardian and MIT Technology Review — picks what matters and retells it in Ukrainian. The selection, the summary and the analysis are produced by AI; a separate step checks every claim against its source and proofreads the language. ONE NOTIFICATION A DAY Turn on a reminder for the new issue and pick the hour yourself. One notification a day, never more. SHARE A CARD Send a story as an image to Instagram Stories, save it to Photos or share it through any messenger. NO FEED, NO ACCOUNT No infinite scroll, no ads, no recommendations, no sign-up. An issue has a beginning and an end. Light and dark appearance follow your iPhone. PRIVACY The app collects nothing about you. If you turn notifications on, all that is stored is an anonymous device code and the hour you chose. No tracking, no advertising. Naia is free.

A fresh look and more ways to share. The home screen has come alive: a living bronze background now sits under the header, and the header buttons are made of glass. A story opens by growing straight out of its tile, and swiping back lays the previous card over the current one. Sharing feels better too. On the share screen you can pick a dark or light card, and the bottom of the image now shows how many sides and primary sources a story has. In Instagram Stories the card sits on the same animated background, in the theme you picked. Pull the feed down to refresh it: each tile of the logo answers with a light tap, and the threshold ends in a crisp click. More variety: each issue now carries one story per publication. On an unfolded iPhone Duo the article sits on the left, with the source passport and the sides of the story on the right. Plus plenty of fixes: text no longer gets clipped or broken mid-word, the names of the sides line up with the text around them, white corners no longer flash between screens, and on iOS 27 the Ukrainian letters є and ґ are back in headlines.
