In the meantime I improved your web by removing the ad for the app with uBlock - looks much better now.
We have a homepage redesign coming in the next month that should make the experience significantly better. For a long time the web site was just a stopgap—glad to finally be giving it some love. Stay tuned!

Downloaded it and am delighted. It feels like a mature product out of the gate. UI for determining the desired news mix is pure genius.
Uh how will it make money?
The backend system that drives the app has many potential B2B applications that we expect to support keeping a totally free or freemium model for the app.

Not available in Australia?
Not yet. We want to make sure we are complying with the laws in every country where we operate and that is non-trivial.
Yesterday we added India, Canada, and UK. More will come soon.
Edit: Marcel is adding Australian news sources this morning and we are looking into launching

So the only way to use this is through the app? The website is unusable as half of the screen is taken up by the ad for the app.
We’ve taken great pains to make an industry-leading app UX. There is a fairly thorough unsolicited 3rd party review here: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DIcw07ypsZt/
The web will improve.

Unfortunately not available in my country. I don’t get why limit countries, you can allow download and say it only covers USA news
Not yet. Laws vary from country to country and we want to take care to be in compliance.
Yesterday we added India, Canada, and UK. More soon.

website for those not on iOS has a very basic (for now) subset of the app https://particle.news
