Gatherly - An RSS Reader for Your Feeds Gather your chosen blog and news feeds in one place, read at your pace, and save articles to find again. Gatherly is a free RSS reader for feeds you choose to follow. Add a feed with an RSS URL or a website address, review the preview, and subscribe. If you already have a feed list, import it from an OPML file. Export your subscribed feeds as OPML when you need a portable list. Organize feeds with tags, mark articles as read, and save the ones you want to revisit. Open a saved item from the Saved view. Explore trends, recommended feeds, categories, and topics in Discover. Keyword search creates a Google News RSS feed so you can subscribe to a topic. When iCloud is available, feeds, tags, and saved items can sync between your devices. To get started, choose Add RSS Feed in Settings, enter a URL, and open your first article. You can also start by importing OPML.
