Informed and hopeful

The clear and direct news delivery without manipulative language is such a wonderful reprieve. Praying after each news headline is an immediate reminder that this is all in God’s hands. It helps me to stay in my lane and not get lost thinking about how everything could affect my family. Thank you, Pour Over.

Forced to make an account to discover it’s paid only

Edit: There IS a free version, but it was not easy to get to. The gamification of news reading also seems to be opposed to the stated goal of helping us spend less time on news. I’ll stick to the emails and podcast as they seem to distract me a lot less than trying to earn acorns, play games, and decorate a cartoon squirrel.

Original review: I assumed this would be free like the 3x-weekly TPO emails are, so I downloaded it. Those emails are very helpful, and I was expecting the same content at the same price in a pretty format. Instead, they make you input an email address, name, and fill out a whole quiz just to learn it’s a paid app. Who does that? I checked the description to see if I’d missed it, but there’s no price listed. Apple does mention all the personal data they collect. For me, this is a miss, by miles.

Incredible app!

I recommend to everyone looking for unbiased news with a biblical perspective!

App Review

I love having this moved over to the App. It’s so nice to spend 10-15 mins reading and learning and having a biblical lens applied.

Well done

Very well though out, clear, unbiased, and fun games.
