Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Cupfeed at 4.0 against xFeed RSS Reader's 3.5. Cupfeed also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 6 months). xFeed RSS Reader's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and review sentiment (62% vs 50%). On price, ratings volume, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cupfeed sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. xFeed RSS Reader asks for nothing beyond the download.
Cupfeed holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 13 and 6 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 62% of xFeed RSS Reader's written reviews are positive against 50% of Cupfeed's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
xFeed RSS Reader ships an update every 6 months, Cupfeed weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
