Tortoise: The Slow Newsroom
Tortoise is an iPhone app developed by Tortoise Media Ltd. It falls under the category of Education & Reference, specifically in the Books subcategory.
Tortoise is not your typical news app. Instead of focusing on breaking news, it delves deeper into the stories that drive the news. The app offers a personalized listening experience where you can follow your favorite journalists and get the stories they think you shouldn't miss.
With Tortoise, you can enjoy a variety of audio stories and podcasts, including the daily Sensemaker that helps you make sense of the world, the Slow Newscast that investigates important stories in the UK and around the world, and the News Meeting that takes you behind the scenes in the Tortoise newsroom. Additionally, the app features award-winning investigative series such as Sweet Bobby, Londongrad, and Hoaxed.
You can download Tortoise for free and access all the audio stories and podcasts in high-fidelity. However, for exclusive early and ad-free access to all the content, you can become a Tortoise member for only £4.99 a month.
Tortoise is the slow newsroom that aims to make sense of a fast-moving world. Support their journalism by becoming a Tortoise member and enjoy benefits such as exclusive early app access and ad-free listening.
