You have two thousand saved articles you'll never finish. Every read-later app optimizes for hoarding. You save things with the best intentions, read maybe one in fifty, and watch the queue grow until opening it feels like guilt instead of anticipation. ReadClear is built differently. It won't let you hoard. THE CAP IS THE POINT Your inbox caps at 20 unread articles. When you hit the cap, anything new waits until you finish or archive what you have. Twenty is what a person can actually read in a week or two. No infinite backlog. No "8,432 unread" staring back at you. SAVE FROM ANYWHERE Hit share in any app, Safari, X, Mail, anywhere, tap ReadClear, and get back to what you were doing. The article waits for you, stripped of ads, sidebars, pop-ups, and clutter. READ CALMLY The reader is built for prose. Warm serif on cream parchment. A dark mode that's actually warm, not cold blue-black. Font sizing that respects your eyes. No engagement metrics, no "you might also like," no distractions. A FAST PASS WHEN YOU NEED IT Tap the sparkle for an AI summary: a clear takeaway plus three to seven bullets, each teaching you something specific. Use it when you're skimming. Read the full article when something earns it. AI is a choice you make, never a default we force. NO GUILT, NO GAMES No streak counters. No notifications nagging you to "catch up." No "100 articles read this year" gamification. The point isn't to read more. The point is to read what you saved on purpose, then move on. By Sunday you've cleared your queue, and that feels good in a way "unread" never did. Now go save a real one. PRO ReadClear is free with a 20-article inbox. Upgrade to Pro for a 100-article cap and unlimited AI summaries. Monthly, annual, and lifetime options available. Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage in your App Store account settings.
