## What is So They Say?

Most news apps drown you. Earnings beats, opinion columns, press releases, listicles, and "closer looks" on things you already know. 

So They Say does the opposite. It only shows breakthroughs — genuinely new ideas, discoveries, first-of-a-kinds, and novel capabilities — across 16 industries. 
If an article isn't breaking new ground, it never reaches you. INDUSTRIES WE FOLLOW Tech, Cars, Weapons, Construction, Innovation, Network, Transport, Science, Factory, Medicines, Guns, Army, Airplanes, Boats, Beauty, and more. 

HOW IT WORKS We pull from trusted industry sources and filter every article through a breakthrough-only rubric. Rumors, opinion pieces, earnings reports, celebrity stories, and "top 10" roundups get dropped automatically. 

What's left is signal. Set your preferred industries once and your feed stays focused. Tap a topic pill to zoom in on any single field. Pull to refresh. 

No cross-site profiling. We only store what you need for the service to work — your account, your preferred industries, and which articles you've read. 

Delete your account from Settings at any time and everything goes with you. Sign in with Apple supported. No passwords required. WHAT'S NOT HERE No infinite scroll engineered to waste your time. No notifications for things that aren't new. No editorial opinions. No sponsored content. No "engagement." Just the breakthroughs. So they say.
