This is why its the okayest and minimalist. Just read the article like how it was supposed to be read. Is it even a reader? It might just be a syncer. + Shortcuts Have fun automating with Shortcut actions for listing feeds, listing articles, and subscribing to new feeds. + Widgets Add some gorgeous widgets to your Home Screen to show unread count for either all feeds or a specific folder of feeds. + Import/Export with OPML Import your feeds with an OPML file (if you have one from your existing RSS reader).

Reviews of An Otter RSS Reader

Abandoned Gem app

It’s been my favorite app I used to use for years. But it’s been long abandoned for 2 years now since last update. Sad to see you go bud.

Cute RSS reader in every way

First, otter. Win. Second, it's just really small - a fraction of the size of many other RSS readers, but it's still got a lot of functionality.

The macOS application is a Catalyst port with some rough edges around things like settings, but you wouldn't really know that when using the main application window for day-to-day tasks and I understand that the dev probably doesn't want to spend too much time on a comparative minority platform vs iOS.

All in all, this is great. Small and fast (despite the Catalyst underpinnings) with decent RSS support and a few little bells and whistles that are all I need. Can't argue with the donationware price, either!
