Lovely designed
Response from developer
Thank you for the detailed report. The tags crash was fixed in the latest update. For collections, you can use the "Move to" option in the item's context menu to place a collection into a folder. When articles are added or imported, Couch downloads and extracts their content so they load instantly and work offline. Depending in the amount of items, this initial process keeps the CPU busy for a while – everything runs on-device, with no server-side processing. Once it's done, you shouldn't see it again unless new articles are added.
Critical Bugs
Selecting "Tagged" or "Untagged" crashes the app consistently on both macOS and iOS (latest versions).
Collections
Two separate issues:
iOS: Dragging a collection onto a collections folder causes the collection to disappear.
macOS: Collections cannot be dragged onto folders at all. Reordering collections via drag-and-drop works, indicating incomplete implementation.
Performance & Responsiveness
App launch displays a spinning beach ball. Clicking "Unread" initiates multiple article downloads. UI becomes responsive only after selecting items, despite sustained 60–70% CPU usage throughout. Stable connection, no VPN. Occurs on MacBook Air M2, macOS 26.4.1.
Increíble
Super (bis auf Sync)

Hi teespe, thank you! Regarding the issue: The sync status information is broken atm, but the actual sync should still work. Fix for the issue is on its way. BR, Alex.
Soweit ganz nett
Bisschen übers Ziel hinausgeschossen.
So gibt das nichts mit der interoperabilität im Apple Universum.

Hallo Gatto-Bello, auf iOS 18 und macOS 15 kannst du Couch 4 installieren. Diese Version synchronisiert mit Couch 5, es fehlen lediglich die neuesten Funktionen und Verbesserungen.
