About this app

Meet The Brief: the definitive source of news on Apple Watch.

The Brief was created to solve a gaping problem with news apps on watchOS: no one app could browse full articles, access a variety of outlets across the world, and be personalised to your interests - all while being easy to set up.

The Brief is the first app on watchOS to do all these in one product.

+ Get articles from a variety of outlets across the world, curated by Google and presented in a beautiful design made for your Watch. + Open and read full-length articles via the outlet's website. + Customise your front page to show articles from a topic of your choosing, and make searches to dive deeper whenever you want. + All you need to do to set it up is open the app. There's no need to go around trying to subscribe to a heap of RSS feeds - The Brief does it all for you.…

Independent evidence report

Evidence and review signals

This is where the page changes from an app-store listing into an evidence report: findings, important reviews, pricing and a dated history.

Store listing and review signals

What we measured

Each line is a measurement published as a measurement, never a verdict.

How these are measured

Each line is a measurement, published as a measurement. Where we have not looked, the line says so rather than reading as a zero.

In the package we scanned
