Global Intelligence turns the day's world news into something you can actually read in a few minutes — organized by the aspects of the world that matter (politics, economy, conflict, technology, and more), not an endless scroll of headlines. FREE — TOP 10 See the 10 most significant stories in the world right now, ranked and updated daily. No subscription required. This is a permanent free feature. PREMIUM — THE DAILY BRIEFING Subscribe to Global Intelligence Premium to unlock the full Briefing: one clear, carefully written paragraph per world aspect, every day — a complete picture of what's happening globally, without the noise of scrolling through dozens of individual articles. Global Intelligence Premium is an auto-renewable subscription billed monthly, with pricing shown in the app before you subscribe. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. Your subscription automatically renews unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID account settings. ALSO INCLUDED, FREE My Briefing: pin the aspects you personally track and follow them over time. Search: on-device search across your cached briefings — no query ever leaves your phone. Category customization: hide the categories you don't care about. BUILT FOR EFFICIENCY AND PRIVACY The app makes at most one network request a day, downloading the next published briefing pack. Everything else — search, pinning, reading — happens entirely on-device.
