Today in History: Flashback

Stop doom scrolling. Start learning history.

Flashback turns your idle screen time into something worth remembering. Every card is a real person or event that shaped the world — told in plain language, no textbook required.

TODAY IN HISTORY — EVERY DAY
Each morning, a new Today in History card is pinned at the top of your feed. Born on this day. Died on this day. On this day in history. 366 days, 366 moments that changed everything.

1,800+ HISTORY FACTS FROM WORLD HISTORY
Scroll through figures and events from China, Italy, Spain, the UK, France, Germany, Russia, Mexico, the United States, Japan, India, Brazil, Greece, Egypt, and more. Ancient civilizations to modern revolutions. Scientists, artists, warriors, and leaders.

DEEP DIVE — THE FULL STORY
Go beyond the card. 50 long-form articles on history's biggest events and people — World War II, Genghis Khan, the Fall of Rome, and more. See how historic moments connect to each other.

DAILY HISTORY REMINDER AT 7 PM
Turn on notifications and get one history fact every evening. Takes 10 seconds. Sticks with you all day.

NO ACCOUNTS. NO NOISE.
Just history. Everything works offline. Open the app and scroll.

Flashback is for people who are curious but busy. Who want to know more about the world but don't have time for a documentary. Who scroll anyway — and would rather learn something while they do it.

History worth knowing.
