Feedwright reads feeds and keeps an eye on pages. No account, everything on your device. WHAT FEEDWRIGHT DOES Read feeds RSS, Atom, JSON Feed, Reddit and YouTube channels, none of them requiring a login. Bring your sources from another reader over as an OPML file, from Feedly, Inoreader, NetNewsWire or Feeder. A feed from any page Paste an address and you are done. If the site has no feed, Feedwright builds one from the page itself. New articles arrive unread, like everything else. Keep an eye on a page Pages without articles can be added too: a pricing page, a job listing, a changelog. Feedwright reports when something there changes. Where Apple Intelligence is available, the device decides whether a change means anything, so a new date or a cookie notice is not reported. Reader view Articles open without ads, cookie banners or waiting. You set the typeface, size, line spacing and theme. Read aloud Any article can be read out loud, with Lock Screen controls. Siri and Spotlight "What's new?" gets answered without the app ever opening. WHAT DOES NOT HAPPEN No account, no sign-up. Everything runs on your device. No ads, no recommendations, no ranking by popularity. No data collection, no analytics. FREE AND PLUS Free: 15 sources. A source is a feed or a watched page. Includes every reading feature, OPML import and export. Feedwright Plus: unlimited sources, rules to highlight or mute individual words, Family Sharing for up to six people. The subscription runs until you cancel it and is managed in App Store settings.
