Quartz Brief Description
Quartz's news app puts the entire global economy in your pocket. It's an ongoing conversation about the news, sort of like texting. We'll send you messages, photos, GIFs, links, and—our newest treat—3D objects that you can view in augmented reality.

You decide when you're interested in learning more about a news item. Each session lasts just a few minutes, so it's perfect for the train, elevator, grocery store line, or wherever you have a spare moment. And here's the secret about our little news bot: It's written by humans! Smart journalists who just want to keep you informed and entertained.

We're proud to have been named an Apple editors' choice and one of the 10 best iPhone apps of 2016. Some other accolades we're not exactly bashful about:
• GQ's 100 best things in the world right now
• Fast Company's 8 must-download apps for your new iPhone
• CNET's favorite apps of 2016
• Business Insider's best iPhone apps of 2016
• OK, we'll stop now :)

The app is really simple to use. Here are some other features:
• Experience the news in AR. When telling you about an interesting object that's in the news, we may invite you view a 3D model of it right there in front of you.
• Notifications that are relevant and fun. You decide which alerts to receive, and we won't buzz your phone unless it's really, really important.
• Sometimes our notifications also come with photos, charts, animated GIFs, or other media attached to them. Pretty crazy.
• Take a 24-hour break from news about the US president with Trump Snooze.
• On the Today screen, view our most interesting chart of the moment.
• Apple Watch owners, gauge the markets with an emoji on your watch face.
• No more news? Relax. We'll give you a quiz or something else to do.

This app is a new way to read the news that's really made for your phone. We hope you like it. Let us know what you think at hi@qz.com. Thanks!
Quartz Brief 2.8.6 Update
2019-04-09
GIFs, man. They are cool, but also kind of a data hog. So we're thrilled to say that this new version of the app will reduce your data consumption by a lot. (Don't worry, the GIFs are still there. We just got better at when and how we load them.) And for those who want even more control, you can now select "reduce data usage" in settings. When that's turned on and you're on a cellular connection, we won't load images until you tap them. We have the perfect GIF picked out to celebrate these new features, but that would kind of defeat the point, wouldn't it?

This version also fixes the "chart of the moment" extension for your Today screen. Charts!

We've made some improvements to stability.
And in case you missed it in the last update: we flew drones around the world to create 3D models that tell the story of how cities are changing. You can check out some those models in the object library.

This version cleans up a few things in preparation for a really exciting new editorial project that's launching on Wednesday. We can't say any more than that...

...OK, the secret is killing us, so maybe just a little bit more detail: We flew drones around the world to create 3D models that tell the story of how cities are changing, and you'll be able to view all of them in augmented reality.

Is it the coolest thing we've ever done for you? Find out Wednesday.

Start your workday with a quick catchup on what happened while you were sleeping. Starting with this new version, we'll send you a morning notification with the latest. You can view the details inside the notification itself (fancy!), or tap through to view it in the app.
To mark this new feature and the app's next chapter, we have renamed ourselves... Quartz Brief. As in, short. Get it? But don't worry, nothing else is changing! Just the name.

New AR features
Notification upgrades
And! Haikus are back
2.6 2018-09-16
We are ready for iOS 12 with interactive notifications, Siri Shortcuts, and improvements to augmented reality using ARKit 2.0. Go crazy, folks.

We've got a helpful new feature ready for you: page indicators.

Quartz is the guide to the new global economy, and page indicators are your guide to your current location in the Quartz app.

2: the number of features we're excited to introduce in this new version.

We have a new type of notification for you! Every day we'll send you an interesting datapoint about the global economy, drawn from the Quartz Index. And these notifications are interactive, too: Use 3D Touch to expand them and get the story behind the data (or tap to view the same information inside the app).

You can also add Quartz Index to your Today screen. It's a lot more exciting than your calendar and a lot less useful than the weather.
