## What is Zest?

Zest is a news reader that learns what you actually care about — quietly, on your device, with no account and no tracking.

Open it and your feed sharpens with every story you read. The more you browse, the better it understands the topics and publishers you trust. No rating, no setup, no profile sold to advertisers.

WHY ZEST

• Learns what you like — your feed is personalised on your device from your real reading, not a profile held on a server.
• Private by design — no accounts, no tracking pixels. Your interests sync privately through your own iCloud.
• Clean reader mode — ad-free reading in the font, size and spacing you choose.
• One-tap translation — read any story in 130+ languages instantly.
• Read in more than one language — follow the news in several languages at once.
• No cookie pop-ups — choose to auto-dismiss, auto-accept, or leave them as they are.
• Your local weather — current conditions and the forecast, right in the header.
• Read offline — save your top stories for journeys with no signal (Zest Premium).

Zest is built around a simple idea: a news app should work for you, not for advertisers. It runs on your device, learns from what you read, and keeps your data yours.

New in this version

• Make it yours — choose your app icon colour when you first open Zest, or anytime in Settings.

• Reader now follows your theme — dark when you're dark, light when you're light.
