Shades

Welcome to the future of staying informed. Shades brings you daily bites of news and culture, presented from multiple points of view so that you can see the whole picture quickly. We curate and summarize POVs on the issues of the day, from news and politics to TikTok trends, relationship advice, sports, pop culture, and everything in between. To bring you these shades, our team dives down the rabbit holes, reads the newspapers and magazines, scrolls the social feeds – we scour every corner of the internet so that you’re getting a comprehensive view. Then we present it in everyday language as quick summaries. No more reading walls of text, paying for access, or worrying about which voice has bias. No more echo chambers, filter bubbles, labels, or generational baggage. No more time spent researching issues yourself to see the whole picture. No more regretful scrolling or wasted time. We all contain multitudes, and there are shades to everything. So stop getting your news and culture in black and white, one perspective at a time – and start using Shades! Join the movement: The first news & culture app oriented around multiple perspectives. Browse a vibrant and visual newsstand personalized to your interests. Vote on polls and see what others think about today’s trending topics. Plus, start a private Friend Poll to see what your friends think. Leave your take on a story – the Shades team may feature it as a shade, elevating your perspective to the main summary. Follow other users, exchange content and messages, and customize your profile.
