What it does
Each edition is five to eight stories grouped by topic, a sentence or two each, with the outlet and the link. It remembers what it already told you, so a story comes back only when something changed, marked as an update. Opinion is labelled. With Speech it also reads the edition aloud on Telegram.
Ask it things like
- “What happened in Lomé today?”
- “Leave US politics out tomorrow.”
- “Read me the evening edition.”

- The ways outThe two buttons under every edition, Less of this… and Quiet news today, what each does when tapped, and how to take either back.
