How ShiftNews works in Shift Browser
ShiftNews pulls information from a variety of reputable, global publishers to ensure your feed is reliable and current. Our goal is to give you a broad view of world events from credible outlets.
The stories you see are ranked based on how widely they're covered. We display the most significant news of the day by tracking how many outlets are reporting on a topic and how recently they've published. This keeps your feed relevant and timely.

Personalization and settings
Depending on the version of Shift Browser you installed, the new tab page may be set to ShiftNews by default and can't be changed. We're listening to your feedback and are open to providing more customization options for your homepage down the road.
If you see a story you don't like, please know that we don't have a "hide" or "report" feature yet. This is on our roadmap as we look for ways to give you more control over the content you engage with daily.
