## What is NewsPal?

THE PLACE FOR UNINTERRUPTIBLE READING EXPERIENCE.
Are you sick and tired of being forced to play games when you're stuck on the subway? So were we, so we built NewsPal - an app which saves your favorite websites and let you read them later, without any Internet connection. 
NewsPal downloads every single layer of a website, allowing you to navigate and access your content from anywhere, even in your underground bunker.

SET IT AND FORGET IT!
NewsPal provides the ability to set download schedulers. This means that you can set NewsPal to automatically grab the latest version of your favorite websites while you sleep and every day you have a fresh copy ready to go for the morning commute. We use an AI-powered autoupdate feature, which will learn your usage pattern, and will adjust your content refresh time respectively.

NO ADS, YOUR DATA IS YOURS!
Enjoy Ad-Free reading - NewsPal automatically attempts to remove the advertisements and trackers of any website it downloads.
You do not need to login to NewsPal: we do not collect your personal information, preferences and interests, and will never sell your data.

NEWSPAL PREMIUM

You can buy a NewsPal Premium subscription to expand beyond the free-tier 200 MB download limit.

NewsPal Premium subscription price starts at $0.99 USD/month or $7.99 USD/year. Prices are in US dollars, may vary in countries other than the US and are subject to change without notice.

If you choose to purchase NewsPal Premium, payment will be charged to iTunes Account at confirmation of purchase. Subscription automatically renews unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24-hours before the end of the current period. Auto-renewal may be turned off at any time by going to your settings in the iTunes Store after purchase. Any unused portion of a free trial period will be forfeited when you purchases a subscription.

### 1/5 — ABSOLUTELY USELESS

*2025-02-16*

Don’t bother with this app. It doesn’t work on Paywalls.

### 5/5 — EASY TO USE

*2021-08-08*

NewsPal is doing what it advertises. Very easy

### 5/5 — The “drill-down” is very useful!!! Highly recommend it

*2021-08-04, version 1.5*

Other read-it-later apps let you save an article, but then when that article links to another article you have to wait till you're online again to save it. NewsPal saves the article you are interested in AND all the articles linked to that article so you can read it if you want without downloading again! (you can define how many "levels" you want to save).

### 5/5 — Simple and exactly what I need

*2021-07-26*

Highly recommended. I can read what I want to read. Without any interruptions. Easy to use

### 3/5 — Useful

*2021-07-12*

It’s mind blowing to have the ability to save a whole website, no problems so far

### 5/5 — Instapaper convert

*2021-07-12*

Switched here from Instapaper due to Instapaper’s ads cluttering up my reading, also don’t want to pay for Premium, so I switched, now I get to read without ads and save my money. Saving article links to read offline is also very handy, I don’t have to go to each individual article to save it.

### 5/5 — Works great for me

*2020-11-23, version 1.1*

Used it everyday on subway. Unlike Read it later apps, where I rushed in the morning to mark all interesting articles to be available on my commute, this app updates all my favourite websites before I leave home, it gives me another 10-15 minutes of my tight schedule in the morning, a life-saver when you’re busy. Fabulous app and I highly recommend it!

### 5/5 — Simply Perfect

*2020-11-20*

Works great for storing whole site offline to read later. Easy to use. Auto refresh feature is very useful.
