Gather: RSS & News Reader

Offline feeds. No account.

Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Read what you choose, without turning every subscription into another inbox. Gather is a calm, local-first RSS reader built around your sources. Follow the publications you trust, read clean full articles when available, and keep useful stories ready for places with a weak connection. A FEED THAT FITS YOU • Use Browse for a relaxed chronological stream. • Use Keep up for the few sources you never want to miss. • Group coverage of the same story instead of showing repeat headlines. • Create focused views from sources and plain-language phrases. COMFORTABLE READING • Switch between reader mode and the publisher’s live page. • Adjust type, appearance, pane position, and wide-screen focus mode. • Translate supported articles on your device with Google Translate after a language pack downloads. • Prepare articles for offline reading and build a purposeful reading queue. • Search titles, summaries, sources, and extracted article text stored on your device. LOCAL-FIRST BY DESIGN • No account is required. • Optional summaries and headline tools run on your device after you download a model. • Reading text, titles, URLs, sources, searches, and topics are excluded from analytics. • Export subscriptions with OPML or make a fuller Gather backup whenever you want. • Optional sync uses iCloud on iOS. RELIABLE WHEN A PAGE IS MESSY Gather uses feed content first, can prepare an extracted reading view, and always gives you a retry or live-web fallback when extraction is unavailable. Publisher sites, paywalls, and JavaScript-heavy pages can still limit what a reader can extract. Core reading, search, OPML, export, offline tools, and on-device features do not require a subscription. A transparent one-time purchase removes Gather’s in-feed sponsored cards. Optional article translation is powered by Google Translate. The original article stays one tap away.
