Unbelievable
I’ve been using free and paid services for saving and reading articles for many years now. This app is doing everything right except one thing: please give us the option to support you monetarily. Add an option to tip please!
Thank you for the clean interface, and great customization options for article viewing. Keep up the great work.

Awesome! Great TTS and syncing with Obsidian
This is my new favorite reading app. One request would be to make it easier to view and edit metadata like date published etc. These fields are available to save to Obsidian, but I can't see or edit them in Omnivore.
Looks great
30 minutes in everything makes sense and works great.
I've bee using pocket for years after instapaper.
Cross-platform is important.
Since pocket got taken over by Mozilla it's harder to use and is no longer really cross-platform. It's no longer working in many browsers.
It was time to switch -just too frustrating

Used to Love it
Updated: the app was great. Now seems like all the articles get halfway though and then stop. Not sure the problem but I hope they can fix it
So great. Makes it a breeze to catch up on all the news. Especially while there is so much. The only thing I could wish for is an option to create a playlist so I can load multiple articles and have them play without having to pick up my phone to reload the next. Still, fantastic idea well executed

Omnivore Has Great Potential
I’ve been using Omnivore for a few weeks now after giving up my Readwise Reader subscription. The app has decent features for its age and is stable. There os great integration between other apps which is really nice too. Being open source, there’s lots of opportunities for this app to become great. Consider giving it a try.

SUPER REALISTIC VOICE
I’ve been enjoying Omnivore for months on my phone delving into articles for research and wonderful novels
I am a little confused tho how can I use the text to speech on my laptop? I have the extension downloaded and don’t seem to be able to

Slow loading & RSS
Neat that is free & pretty, but I needed more. Tried Apple News for a couple months then went back to Readwise Reader; not for RSS as it overheats my phone, but it imports everything, & can AI narrate at my 1.25 speed; caffeinated.
Like a glass of fresh cold ice water in 🔥
I rely on “read it later” and text-to-speech (TTS) capabilities for a variety of accessibility needs. This is a major way that I engage with content online, so a thoughtfully designed and well-supported reader app is essential to me on a daily basis
I’ve used just about every other reader app out there —paid and free— and gave up on *all* of them out of frustration for one reason or another. I even briefly started coding my own solution before I found out about Omnivore.
While I’m still early days with this app, it is already superior to everything else I’ve tried. It’s such a relief!
Reasons to use this app:
- It’s free and open source!
- Easy to use but offers flexibility for power users like me
- TTS voices are the best quality I’ve experienced in any app so far, at any price. I’m using “Nova” right now.
- Active and ongoing development of the app. This is so important!
My biggest and most urgent request is for a custom “playlist“ or “queue“ function for more continuous TTS playback. With that, Omnivore would be pretty much perfect!

Real Good. So Good.
Why are people using Pocket? Why are people using Instapaper?
I don't know. Because they should all be using this app instead. Those apps deserve three, maybe four star apps tops. This fixes every problem they had, primarily: significantly improved web page to app conversion, far greater options for formatting, and more realistic reading voices.
It's the best. Just use it already.

Doesn't save most of what I want, on most of the sites I've tried
The speed and interface on Omnivore are nice. And I'd gladly play for this....if it worked. But way more often than not, it pulls down a teribly stripped down version of the page I want. For insance on Reddit threads, it's get's just the intial comment, if that. As is, Omnivore is essentially not useable due to not being able to trust its results.
