About
True stories/facts/events from history that're so interesting you’ll want to tell someone. Learn something new each day.
Uncover turns history into short, vivid stories you read in a few minutes. Every story is its own feed: swipe up to go deeper, swipe left for the next one.
STORIES YOU WON’T BELIEVE YOU NEVER HEARD
• A rocket sent to study the northern lights made Russia’s president open the nuclear briefcase.
• The heir to the Ottoman throne lived above a Manhattan restaurant.
• Abraham Lincoln’s son stood near three presidential assassinations, and was once saved by the killer’s brother.
• Cleopatra lived closer to the Moon landing than to the building of the Great Pyramid.
- And much more.
From the ancient world to the space race, war and spies to mysteries, inventions and remarkable lives.
PICKED AND CUSTOMIZED JUST FOR YOU
Pick a few interests to start. Uncover learns from what and how you read, and creates your next stories on the fly. You’ll never see the same story twice.
