The PrompTugal app · for readers and participants

# The summit, the news and your day

The news, the agenda and your own day, for readers and for everyone at Web Summit Lisbon, 9 to 12 November 2026. No account is needed, and nothing in the app needs a team key. 7 of the 13 features below are in the beta today.

What you get

## Features

“In the beta” means the code is in the PrompTugal app on the `dev` branch. “Coming” means it is being built and is not in the app yet. This page is rebuilt on every release, so the labels follow the code.

### PrompTugal.news in the app

The live PrompTugal.news site opens in the app, with its own page and Back history, and updates the moment the site is released.

In the beta · Web

### Offline reader

Native Now, Agenda, Saved and News lists, kept on the device for when the venue Wi-Fi fails. Every time is shown in Lisbon time.

In the beta · Native

### One schedule

Sessions picked on the website and sessions saved in the app become one list, in the website's own format, so a pick made in one place shows in the other.

In the beta · Native and web

### Website and app talk to each other

A small, fixed set of messages between the website and the app, checked against a list of allowed sites. No message ever returns a key.

In the beta · Native and web

### Reminders before sessions

A notification before each picked session, with the venue, in Lisbon time.

In the beta · Native

### The news, native and web side by side

The PrompTugal feed, newsletter editions and stories as native lists, next to the same pages on the web.

In the beta · Native and web

### Your encrypted vault on the phone

A vault reader written in Swift with Apple's own cryptography. It reads your encrypted vault, keeps a local cache and syncs only what changed. The server only ever holds ciphertext.

Coming · Native

### Face ID or passcode unlock

Vault keys stay on this device, in the Keychain, behind Face ID or the device passcode. The app never stores a vault key without one. Keys are never synced, logged or shown.

Coming · Native

### Trusted signers and your own vault

A vault's changes count only when signed by a key you trust: "Trust this signer" adds one. "Make this my vault" says which vault is yours, so a vault imported from someone else never is.

Coming · Native

### The graph, drawn natively

The PrompTugal.news graph of companies, people, events and topics, drawn as a native view you can pan and search.

Coming · Native

### Ask, with your own key

Chat about the agenda, your picks and the news, using your own OpenRouter key, kept in the Keychain and sent only to openrouter.ai and the model provider you choose.

Coming · Native

### Ask asks first

Before the first message, Ask says what it sends and to whom, and sends nothing until you allow it. Each kind of context has its own switch; only the public agenda is on by default.

Coming · Native

### Private in the app switcher

When the app leaves the screen, a cover hides its contents, so the app switcher never shows keys, messages or a conversation.

At the summit

## Built for walking between halls

- **Lisbon time, always.** Every session is shown in Lisbon time, whatever time zone your phone is in. A session that ends after midnight ends on the next day.
- **Offline first.** Open the app once while you are online. After that, the agenda, your saved sessions and the latest stories are on the device. If a refresh fails, what you had stays on screen with the time of the last good sync.
- **One schedule.** PrompTugal.news already lets you add sessions to your day in the browser. The app reads and writes the same list, in the same format (`nr.schedule.v1`), so you do not keep two.
- **The website is still the website.** Articles, company and person pages, search and the graph stay on PrompTugal.news and open inside the app. The app adds what a browser cannot do: reminders, Face ID, a private store and offline lists.

Private by design

## Your data in your own vault

Your picks and notes can be kept in an encrypted vault that you hold the keys to. The app reads it with Apple’s own cryptography (AES-256-GCM, HMAC and HKDF in CryptoKit). The server it syncs with stores only ciphertext and opaque file names. The key stays on your device, in the Keychain, behind Face ID. Status: the vault reader is coming, Face ID unlock is coming.
