All Versions of NetNewsWire

6.1.4

July 3, 2023

We’ve removed the Extensions section from the settings screen — along with the rest of the Reddit API code. Removing this code has the nice side effect of providing some small performance enhancements, though probably too small to be noticeable.
More

6.1.3

June 28, 2023

Because Reddit has ended for-free access to the Reddit API, NetNewsWire will stop using the Reddit API on June 30. We’ve left your Reddit feeds intact. If you have any starred items from those feeds, they will remain as long as you don’t delete those feeds. You can still read whatever you have already downloaded. Feeds using the Reddit API will no longer update, starting June 30. However, if you remove the Reddit extension from NetNewsWire, you can subscribe to Reddit RSS feeds and continue to follow Reddit activity.

6.1.2

April 8, 2023

Because Twitter has ended for-free access to the Twitter API, we’ve had to remove Twitter integration from the app. We’ve left your Twitter feeds intact. If you have any starred items from those feeds, they will remain as long as you don’t delete those feeds. You can still read whatever you have already downloaded. However, those feeds will no longer update. Other changes… We’ve fixed several crashing bugs. We’ve given the satellite in the app icon some cool golden wings.

Reviews of NetNewsWire

  • Coming from Feedly

    NetNewsWire doesn’t do everything Feedly does of course. But Feedly is far from perfect as well and the company behind it caters more and more to corporations. NetNewsWire offers almost everything I need and I actually use this feed reader for my job. The only thing missing for me are tags for saved items. Other than that I’m happy. I use the iCloud sync. I’ve installed the apps on my iPhone, iPad and two Macs. So far everything works flawlessly. I hope iCloud does its job reliably. As we all know that’s not always the case. Nothing NetNewsWire can do about it. Thank you to everyone involved in this app for making it possible!
  • An app that simply works

    NetNewsWire is not an exciting app. It offers me a Really Simple RSS reading experience, together with functional full-text search and a clean, streamlined interface. Those are exactly what I want, and NNW does not tempt me with shiny but not very useful features like other reading apps does.

    Shoutouts to the developers for this free and best tool against doomscrolling!
  • Good and fast - but I can’t find one feature.

    Works great except it would be even better to have a setting that would automatically remove a feed entry after a user defined period of time. For instance, remove all entries after 48 hours unless marked with a star.

    It must be removing them at some point (or maybe not?) but I’m not sure when that is and it is not configurable as far as I can tell. Would be wonderful to let the users have the power to manage the content in this fashion.

    Can we get this feature added?? Thanks!
