Keep control of your news reading with Reeder Classic, RSS reader and read later client in one app, now with support for iCloud syncing.
FEEDS
Sync all your feeds and articles with iCloud. Reeder Classic comes with a built-in RSS/Feeds service which will keep everything in sync on all your devices. Of course, this is optional. You can still just use one of the many third-party services supported by Reeder or just RSS (without sync).
READ LATER
This is Reeder's built-in read later service which stores all your data securely in iCloud. A sharing extension allows you to add links from outside of Reeder.
BIONIC READING
A higher dimension of reading. With Bionic Reading you read texts with more focus, awareness, and sustainability. Read more about Bionic Reading at bionic-reading.com.
WIDGETS
View most recent articles, configurable to only show items from feeds, folders, searches (for services that support searches) or tags (for read later services).
MARK AS READ ON SCROLL
With version 5, Reeder finally supports marking items as read while scrolling. Off by default, this can be enabled on a per-account basis.
READER VIEW
Enter Reader View (for feed items and read later links that support this) for a clutter-free reading experience directly in Reeder's article viewer. You can enable "Automatic Reader View" on a per-feed basis to always load items of a feed with Reader View.
SUPPORTED THIRD-PARTY SERVICES
Feedbin, Feedly, FeedHQ, NewsBlur, The Old Reader, Inoreader, BazQux Reader, FreshRSS, Instapaper and Pocket.
Option for light gradient top to bottom to help Visually distinguish one article from another article in the List feed view. Sometimes it’s hard to tell what picture goes with what article. The gradient would help distinguish each article in the list view. Maybe better isThe option to increase padding between articles in list view. Seems like the text and the pictures are so evenly spaced it makes browsing a bit of a chore. This is when the pictures are large like on an iPad. Another option to show the web view of an article. Reader review doesn’t always show the pictures that go with the web view. If this app had this feature it would be the end-all to other apps for me.Check out fiery feeds. It does both of these but that one lack some critical share features this app has. One of these two apps is so close to being perfect.
Best RSS app around.

Background refresh has been fixed and folders can be renamed. Title of review updated original review left below this. Can't rename folders after the latest update although the support section of the site says it is coming in the update. I would also like the ability to hide sources from the main feed if it's possible reason being is local news. My local area has three sources I added and removed because like any local news outlet they just spam garbage stories after garbage stories to try to get clicks. This ruins the experience of the main feed and I had to remove all local feeds however if I can hide them from the main feed and just check the local folder now and then that would be great. When in the feed view I just find the headlines more difficult to read than NetNewsWire. I tried all the fonts, sizes, picture sizes, etc it's just a little off to me. Background refresh doesn't actually refresh any feeds. The badge count doesn't change and when the app opens the same number of articles are loaded it takes a few seconds or or a pull down to update the feed. This is pretty annoying because there is no way to tell when new articles arrive without at least opening the app. Background app refresh is on in system and reeder settings. These are minor complaints but doesn't make it a 5 star app however it really is the best RSS app and it would be unfair to rate it lower. I don't feel the need to repeat all the reasons this app is awesome just read some other reviews or search online for "reader 5 review"
Life Changing

I have read more longform articles in the past few months of having reader than I have in my entire life. This app has single-handedly changed my entire approach to reading. As someone with executive function disorder it is extremely draining to read and this app completely revolutionize that aspect of my life. this app has become so consequential to my life that I am more than willing to pay for it and support the Reeder team in anyway I can. I want for this app to see regular innovation such as ways to more readily categorize “reading for later” as well as a more up-to-date tagging system and a PDF reader or conversion reader. anybody who struggles to read, struggles to stay focused while reading or has to read over and over again please consider this app as it has turned me into a voracious reader.
Great client!

I have used Reeder for a very long time. Since the days of Reeder 3. Every big release gets better and better. Honestly, this app deserves the full 5 stars, but I have one big issue. Why is there no full support for VoiceOver? Currently I have to configure the app to work with it through the apple settings and it works good. But I think it would work much better if it was native. Being visually impaired, I can see well enough to tap through the menus and at least VoiceOver works when reading the article itself. I think this great app would appeal to more people if this accessibility feature was implemented. Other than that, love the app. I highly recommend it to those looking to buy it. And if you still use RSS, certainly this app is worth every penny.
This update should fix two issues:
- After some time the article viewer might go blank and not load any content anymore.
- Opening the in-app browser sometimes will not load any content.
(I couldn’t actually reproduce either of these myself, so I'm not 100% sure they're fixed now, but they should be.)
