Newsletter[dot]ist - Reading App

Hey everyone,
I hope everyone is safe and feel good today. Today I'd like present my little app for newsletters.

I saw that people are getting lost in their own inbox due to newsletter bombardment. Most people keep receiving about 30-50 newsletters everyday. So I have separated them.

Second, companies keep collecting your data to offer more personalized contents. However, those data is stolen from companies. Then people keep receiving personalized phishing emails on behalf of those companies and people become phishing victims. So I have built a trusted place for everyone. There are only verified contents.

Third, your personal data is collected by all companies. We believe that strong data protection regulations should come in to effect. We promise that we are not going to collect and analyze data about you as long as you don't share with us. We'd like to lead the revolution in data privacy! So users can anonymously follow any newsletter without being tracked.

Fourth, everyday billions of emails are sent and received. Receiving and storing a copy of newsletter in each inbox causes global warming. So I have centralized them. Stop receiving a copy. Instead, see a copy!

Today I'm happy to announce that Android app is live on the store.
Soon we are going to release IOS app on the app store.

There may be issues, user experience problems, bugs.
Don't worry! We will try to solve them.

If your favorite newsletter isn't found on the platform, send a feedback.
So that we can find it and add it to the platform.

This is pretty simple release.
We keep working on it!

Visit newsletter.ist, we are also featured on Product Hunt, looking forward to see your supports, comments, feedback. :)

      Hi Abishek,

      I had time to think through your words. This is actually what I plan in future. We will need to build missing features, and start collecting data when the platform is in use by users. So that we can understand what you read, what you love and try to bring you similar unexplored contents on the web. It's going to be stumble upon for newsletters.

        You're welcome to join the original discussion to build a solution with inputs on those who need it, besides I plan on approaching this problem as well; not for commercial reasons at-least not in the beginning but for research purposes.

    If your app works by subscribing readers with an email address the app generates, Im not a fan.

      I hate those apps which give you an email address to subscribe for newsletters. You just need to tap on Follow for your favorite newsletter. If you want, you should tap on "Turn on Notifications". Then you will start receiving notification for each. : )

      Using emails isn't suitable for our future. So I want to save newsletters with a strong data privacy.
