The feed that makes you smarter. Lore is a microlearning app: an endless feed of bite-sized knowledge. Swipe through short, true stories about history, science, philosophy, psychology, art, mathematics, technology, mythology, and more. Every swipe is one complete idea — a fact, a story, a person, an event. Read it in a minute, or open the full article and go deeper. MICROLEARNING, NOT A COURSE You do not need to start a course, finish a chapter, or commit to a long study session. Each story is designed to be understood in a few minutes, with the option to explore the full article when something captures your interest. Open Lore during a spare minute, a commute, a study break, or before bed. Five minutes is a complete session. HOW LORE WORKS • Choose your interests, from ancient history and mythology to astrophysics and modern technology. • Swipe through an endless educational feed of bite-sized stories, facts, and ideas. • Tap any card to read the full article and explore the subject in greater depth. • Receive personalized recommendations based on what you read, skip, and spend time exploring. • Pull to refresh whenever you are ready to discover something new. BUILT FOR PEOPLE WHO • Want to get smarter in the minutes they already have. • Prefer short-form learning and bite-sized educational content. • Want to improve their general knowledge during spare moments. • Are curious about many subjects but do not always have time to read a book. • Want a daily learning habit that does not require a schedule. • Would rather come away from their phone knowing more. LEARN THROUGH CURIOSITY Lore is not another productivity system, online course, or study planner. There are no lessons to complete and no rigid learning schedule. Simply open the app and start reading. One minute might introduce you to a forgotten historical event. The next might explain a scientific discovery, philosophical idea, mathematical concept, work of art, or piece of modern technology. The feed adapts as you use it, helping you discover subjects you already enjoy and ideas you might never have searched for yourself. A LEARNING HABIT THAT STICKS Every swipe contains a fact, story, or idea worth knowing. A few minutes a day can become a learning habit you are glad you built. * NOTE: ACCESS REQUIRES A PAID SUBSCRIPTION * Terms of Use: lorelearning.app/terms Privacy Policy: lorelearning.app/privacy

Verdict
Krumbit and Lore both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 89% of Krumbit's written reviews are positive against 18% of Lore's. Krumbit also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 15). Lore's advantage is ratings volume (298 vs 16). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Lore sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Krumbit asks for nothing beyond the download.
Lore holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lore has 298 ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 89% of Krumbit's written reviews are positive against 18% of Lore's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Krumbit ships an update weekly, Lore every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
