Discover what makes RSSReader the most powerful feed reader for Mac, iPad, and iPhone — AI-native, privacy-first, and built for serious readers.
AI Summarization
Instantly condense lengthy articles and Reddit posts into clear, actionable summaries. Save time and stay informed at a glance. For Reddit, it summarizes ALL comments — not just a few like most alternatives. A real engineering challenge we're proud of.
Interactive Q&A
Ask any question about an article or post and get instant, AI-powered answers. Uncover key points, explanations, or related facts effortlessly — as if you were chatting with the author.
Unified Feed Experience
Combine RSS feeds and Reddit subscriptions in one distraction-free timeline. Organize, favorite, and mark items as you like — your sources, your rules.
Privacy & Local Storage
Your data stays on your device. RSSReader never tracks, syncs, or shares your reading habits. What you read is yours alone.
On-Device AI Models
Prefer to stay fully offline? RSSReader supports Apple's on-device models so you can summarize and ask questions without sending anything anywhere.
Text to Speech
Listen to your feeds on the go. TTS powered by the OpenAI API or fully local voices — system voices or local MLX TTS with natural-sounding voices. Your call, your commute.
Deep Reddit Analysis
Surface the signal from the noise across long comment chains. RSSReader reads deep threads so you don't have to.
Live Activities & True Background
Your feeds keep updating even when the app is closed. Live Activities surface fresh content on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, while the True Background API keeps subscriptions syncing in the background — so you're always up to date the moment you open RSSReader.
Open Source & Extensible
Fork, contribute, or customize RSSReader for your workflow. Community-driven and free on GitHub — built in the open.
A Model for Every Mind
Choose the brain that fits the moment. Apple's on-device model keeps everything private and instant. Run Gemini 4 locally through Core AI MLX or LiteRT for heavyweight on-device reasoning, or lean on Web AI for browser-grade inference. Route the big workloads through Apple's Private Cloud Compute, with your Mac acting as the gateway — and Codex subscribers can plug in their own accounts the same way. One reading experience, an entire constellation of models.
Free models, woven in invisibly
ChatGPT and Gemini join the roster through their web interfaces — engineered to behave like first-class APIs. It works with free accounts, and every request flows through the web under the hood, completely hidden from view. You simply ask; the answer appears. No keys to fuss with, no extra steps, no sign of the machinery behind it.
