## What is SwiftNZB?

SwiftNZB is a native Usenet (NNTP) client for iPhone and iPad. Connect your own Usenet provider account, import an NZB file, and SwiftNZB downloads it straight to the Files app. Verified, repaired, and extracted automatically.

Like an email app needs a mail account, SwiftNZB needs a Usenet provider account (sold separately by commercial providers). The app contains no content and no search: you import your own NZB files through the share sheet or file picker, and SwiftNZB handles the rest.

FAST, RELIABLE ENGINE
• Parallel TLS connections to your server, tuned automatically
• Built for real-world mobile networks: seamlessly survives cell handoffs, dropped connections, and Wi-Fi/cellular switches
• Pause, resume, and reorder downloads; everything picks up exactly where it left off, even after force-quitting
• Optional download speed limit and cellular controls

AUTOMATIC POST-PROCESSING
• PAR2 verification and error repair, fully on-device
• RAR archive extraction, including multi-volume sets
• Finished files appear in the Files app, organized per download

MADE FOR iOS
• Live Activity with progress on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, including pause/resume buttons
• Native SwiftUI design for iPhone and iPad
• Server settings sync across your devices via iCloud; passwords stay in your Keychain
• No ads, no tracking, no accounts. The app talks only to the server you configure

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
SwiftNZB collects no data. Your credentials are stored in the system Keychain, and downloads never touch any server other than your own Usenet provider.

SwiftNZB requires an account with a Usenet provider. Only download content you have the right to access.
