Our purpose
Good journalism deserves a place in your day.
News arrives from everywhere. Newsletters disappear between receipts and reminders. Daily Commons gives the publications and writers you choose a place to be read.
We respect the work behind good journalism: asking difficult questions, checking sources, and reporting with care. We want that work to be easier to discover, more inviting to read, and part of everyday life.
You choose whose work earns your attention. We make room for it.
The reader
Set like a page, not a feed.
Generous type, fine rules, and room to breathe — designed for iPhone and iPad.
Your reading belongs to you.
Saved stories and your place in each one stay on this device. No Daily Commons account needed. Privacy policy
Questions
Before you read
How do I choose my sources?
Browse the directory by language, subject, or local area and follow the publications you value. You can also add any public RSS or Substack feed by link. The directory offers options; you decide what to follow.
How do iCloud newsletters work?
It is optional. You can import a newsletter email, or connect iCloud Mail with an app-specific password kept on your device and choose which senders to read. The support page has step-by-step details.
Do I still need my publisher subscriptions?
Yes. Publisher subscriptions remain separate, and Daily Commons does not unlock paywalled stories. When a publisher supplies only a preview, the original opens under that publisher's own rules.
Which devices are supported?
Daily Commons is designed for iPhone and iPad, with layouts shaped for the folding iPhone Duo.
When can I get it?
We are planning for October 23, 2026. Availability is subject to App Store approval.
Look forward to your daily read.
News, newsletters, and a little more room for curiosity.
