## What is Nifty?

Save it for later. Classic move. And yet — later rarely comes. Nifty's got it now.

You know the feeling. A TikTok or YouTube Short that goes too fast. An article that gets too technical. Something you'd like to understand, but not right this second, because you're in your flow. So you share it to WhatsApp to watch later. And "later" becomes a list of twelve you never revisit.

Nifty works differently.

You share a link from the Share sheet — from any app. One tap on Nifty. That's it. You get the explanation in your style, and if it takes a moment, Nifty taps you on the shoulder. No ChatGPT. No copy-paste. You stay in your flow.

And "your style" is literal: Nifty learns what you want to understand and how you like to read it. Quick bullet points? More like a story? Want to go deep? Three quick choices on first launch — then Nifty adapts.

What you get:
— Articles and links, explained your way — without the wait
— Videos get an instant preview + a notification when the explanation lands
— Three follow-up chips: simpler please, go deeper, or bring in an expert
— Free-form chat — Nifty remembers your conversation
— Open the same link again? Nifty shows what you asked last time
— Buying through a link? Ask "Can you trust this?" — Nifty checks the shop behind it (how old the domain is, which payment methods it takes, what buyers say) and lays out the facts before you check out. A read, not a guarantee. Free: 3 of your 15 a month. Pro: unlimited.
— In your language, your style — gets sharper over time
— No account needed to start. First 15 explanations per month: free

And what starts as quick explanations slowly becomes your hub. Every TikTok, Short and article you cared about — together, in your style, in one place. Not a pile to plow through. A collection that grows with you.

Privacy: no ads, no data sales. Your profile stays on your device and in our database — you decide what gets removed.

Try it. One tap. No list of twelve.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.2.1 — 2026-08-26

Pasting comes first now.

Got text you can't share from anywhere? Just paste it on the home screen. No more detour through a failed attempt.

And at last: you can select and copy an explanation. The chat replies too.

Also: the heads-up lands again when an explanation takes longer. A TikTok from an iPhone now goes straight through. The share sheet no longer leaves the app you came from hanging. And your profile shows which version you're on.

### 1.1.1 — 2026-08-18

This update makes the trust check fairer.

If Nifty couldn't read something, it now says so — separately, at the bottom, and it doesn't count towards the verdict. Before, "couldn't look" resembled "something's wrong". That matters.

When a shop contradicts itself, you'll see it right at the top. Payment methods are recognised better. And you can now paste text instead of sharing a link.

Also fixed: the app sometimes crashed when you came back to it, and a just-completed purchase was sometimes quietly refused.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-08-06

Nifty tapped you on the shoulder in silence. Not anymore.

Two dings now — like a hand on the bell at a reception desk. You'll know your explanation is ready without staring at your screen.

Also in this one: share video files straight from your device, screens load quicker, and a few rough edges are gone.

### 1.0 — 2026-07-31

No release notes.
