How often are new editorials added?
The app checks for new editorials five times a day: at 8 AM, 10 AM, 12 PM, 4 PM and 8 PM Pakistan time. It also keeps a copy so you can read offline.
Is it free?
Yes. You need a free account to keep your library and streak in sync.

Not yet. Inkwell Daily is coming to Android first.
