Chronaria

Your press review. The rest is noise.

Pick the newspapers you care about and the hours that suit you. We’ll do the rest: read them, keep what belongs, and write you one piece. Not a list of headlines — a review, with the sources under each summary.

Here’s how it works

You say when

Morning, midday, evening. Choose the hours, and if one is enough for you, keep only that one.

You say what

The papers you like and the subjects you want followed. You don’t have to think up keywords.

You read one thing

At the right hour a written piece turns up, with the sources a tap away.

And then there are the parts that make the difference

It works out what a story is about

A topic is a list of papers and the subject you care about. Chronaria recognises the articles that are about it all by itself — in English, in German, in Arabic, in whatever language they happen to be written in.

You live here and you read elsewhere too

The review is written in the language you choose, whatever language the news is in. Living in Italy and want the German press as well? Take both and read them in Italian.

If something happens, you know at once

Some news can’t wait for the next review. You say which places and which words matter, and only those ring.

Short or long, however you like it

One line per story under a single summary, or a block per subject with its sources. In the app you can look at an example of each before choosing — and looking changes nothing.

Telegram channels too

A public channel is read like any other source, alongside the feeds. Read, never written to: Chronaria sends nothing to Telegram.

On your phone, unhurried

Reviews stay readable without a connection, and they end. There’s nothing here to scroll forever.

What you won’t find

Getting started

Chronaria is an Android app. You’ll need an account and to confirm your email address — that message sometimes lands in the spam folder, so have a look. Then you choose your subjects, and the first review arrives at the next hour that’s due.
