Really Simple Reader
Read RSS. Nothing else.
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Really Simple Reader is an RSS reader that does exactly what the name promises: read feeds. No account, no cloud requirement, no clutter.
A feed reader that doesn't take itself more seriously than your articles.
Really Simple Reader shows you what you've subscribed to – chronological, clear, no algorithm, no banner ads, no forced sign-up.
As simple as it sounds:
Enter a feed URL, done. Really Simple Reader stores everything locally on your device – no account needed. No login, no email address, no cloud requirement.
Everything a feed reader needs:
• A combined timeline for all feeds – or filtered by folder
• A clean article view with no distractions, with Safari Reader as a fallback
• Folders to organize your sources
• "Read Later" for articles that don't fit right now
• Notifications for new articles (optional)
• Import/export your feed list (OPML)
• Automatic cleanup of old articles, fully adjustable
Your data stays your data.
Everything is stored locally on your device. If you want, you can optionally enable sync across multiple devices – a deliberate extra feature, never a requirement.
Really Simple Reader is for anyone who wants to use RSS the way it was meant to be: a calm, reliable way to keep track of your own sources – without an app getting between you and your articles.
