“Most importantly, I should stress again how refreshing it feels to have such a great native experience with Unread. The app is really fast, even when it’s loaded up with hundreds of feeds.”
— Niléane, MacStories
“It’s an RSS reader made with taste. It has great typography, themes, search, and compatibility with the usual suspects. I love having this app on my Mac.”
— David Sparks, MacSparky
“Unread is focused on eliminating chrome — it is a pure reading app. It’s like reader mode all the time, and the assortment of color themes is nicely curated.”

What’s New
Version 4.2.2
I recently added new article actions for GoodLinks and Omnivore. This update incorporates these improvements:
• The Article menu now has a Copy Article Link item with a ⇧⌘C (Shift-Command-C) keyboard shortcut.
• The share popover for an article now includes a Copy Article Link option.
• When Clear Read Items on Manual Refresh is enabled, Mark All Read is always available in article lists limited to unread articles if there is at least one article, even if all articles are already marked read.
• When Clear Read Items on Manual Refresh is enabled, Articles removed as a result of marking all read will be reinstated in the article list upon undo, even those articles that were already marked read. Redoing a Mark All Read operation will not clear read items again.
• The set of undoable commands for a main window is reset when Hide Read Items is toggled under some circumstances, when Clear Read Items is manually invoked, when the selected sidebar item changes, and when search criteria is set or changed.
• This update improves detection of link articles from sixcolors.com that link to podcasts.
• This update improves the display of carscoops.com articles.
• This update incorporates a new set of suggested feeds for new Unread Cloud and Local accounts.
• Unread will no longer offer to show webpage text for all articles from a feed after switching to webpage text fails.
• This update fixes a bug that made the share popover on Mac accessible for articles that have no URL.
• This update fixes a bug around syncing articles with incorrectly encoded characters from Feedly.
