Become 1% better, every day

We tend to underestimate how small improvements add up. If you get 1% better at something every day, that doesn’t feel like much. You might not even notice it at first. Keep at it, and progress becomes remarkable though. 1% better each day means 37 times better after one year.

I've tried a few of these aggregators to keep up on topics of interest with good information delivered to me. Refind is by far the best one so far. The topics from which to choose are interesting and varied. The sources have seemed good and the information presented well. I'll keep digging in and see if I feel the same in the future. If so, I'll have no reason to edit this original review!

I've only been using this app for a few days but it's really exceeded my expectations so far, even without any upgrades/in-app purchases. I appreciate the system of categories, tags, and focus areas (and things you want to avoid), and ability to save articles for later, and am really impressed by the visual data that's already being created based on my interactions with the articles they've found for me. Definitely worth a download to see if you like it, imo.

I like Refind very much and it has taught me amazing things that I had never heard of, things I wasn't interested in, or so I thought! this app looks at the internet and pics 7 stories related to categories you pick. sounds kind of boring, however they are so good at finding things of interest, that refund even though it only has seven stories picked out for you, you can learn an amazingly diverse amount of things here. 😁
