Planned

Verify · Evidence & source checking

Tell supported, misleading and unproven apart

About five minutes a day of short lessons and hands-on investigations to spot misleading claims, trace sources and weigh evidence. The goal isn't to hand you the truth — it's to practice believing, doubting and holding off for good reasons.

Not yet available. Verify is still being planned. This page describes the intended curriculum and features, which may change before release.

Who it's for

Anyone who reads news, watches short videos, sees ads and runs into health and money claims every day, but has never practiced judging how trustworthy information is.

Know what to look for

When a claim is uncertain, know whether to check the source, find the original data or look for independent coverage — instead of going with your gut.

See your blind spots

Learn where you tend to believe too easily, dismiss too quickly, or feel more certain than you should.

Skills that transfer

Each method is practiced across different areas of life, rather than memorizing verdicts on particular rumors.

Planned 28-day curriculum

Four stages, one topic a day, with a combined challenge at the end of each week. Every week mixes in claims that are genuinely trustworthy, so “doubt everything” never becomes a shortcut.

Six planned kinds of practice

Every question asks for your judgment and confidence first, then explains. All cases and reference answers are planned to be reviewed by people before release.

Judge & rate confidence

Read a claim, decide whether it's supported, misleading or unproven, and say how sure you are.

Spot the flaw

Tap the passages in a mock news story that carry the key problem.

Trace the source

In a web of sources quoting each other, find the original and the truly independent evidence.

Compare evidence

Pick the most relevant and reliable card from a small set of evidence.

Read the chart

Decide whether a chart really supports its conclusion — for example, whether the axis has been cut.

Investigate

Open a limited number of clue cards, then submit a conclusion and your reasons.

“Not enough evidence” is an answer

Many claims can't be confirmed or refuted yet. Verify plans to make “not enough evidence” a real option, and to score both false acceptance and false rejection — so blanket doubt isn't rewarded.

Changing your mind when new evidence arrives counts in your favor, not against you.

Three conclusions

Supported by evidence	Trust
Misleading or refuted	Don't trust
Evidence falls short	Hold off

FAQ

When will it launch?

There's no date yet. Once it launches, an App Store link will appear on this page and on All apps.

Do I need FoMind Forecast first?

No. Every FoMind app stands on its own — no prerequisites and no shared account.

Will it tell me whether a news story is true?

No. Verify doesn't do live fact-checking. It trains your own judgment with prepared, reviewed cases.

Will the course match this page?
