Newsairy vs Inkstead

Read what you want, how you want. Follow the sources you choose, at your own pace. Your news. Your rules. No algorithm. Read the way you want - Supports RSS, Atom and JSON feeds - Browse a clean article list you can tailor: layout (Grouped or Plain), density (Comfortable or Compact), thumbnail size, favicon, unread dot and preview lines (0–6) - Read in the offline preview or the built-in reader (picking font and text size), or open it in your browser - Smart feeds keep the most relevant articles front and centre: Today, Last 24 / 48 / 72 hours, Last 7 days (a rolling week) and This week (from the start of the current week to now) - Build your own Custom Smart Feeds: keyword-based feeds that gather matching articles, or mute keywords to hide the ones you don't want to see - Looking for something you recently read? Read History is a smart feed too — see only what you actually opened, or everything marked as read, with a toggle to switch - Organise feeds into folders - Choose how each feed opens: as published (perhaps only the first paragraph), with the full article extracted automatically, or downloaded ahead of time so it's ready offline — set per feed, not as one global preference. It needs a connection to fetch, and not every site allows it. - Get a short AI summary of any article, generated entirely on your device (iOS 26 or later) — nothing leaves your phone. Stay in sync - iCloud keeps your feeds, folders and reading state in sync across your iPhone, iPad and Mac - Configure sync to happen automatically, on launch, or on resume — or trigger it manually with pull-to-refresh Make it yours - Choose your theme: Automatic, Light, Dark or Sepia - Configurable swipe actions, order and article retention rules - Import and export your subscriptions with standard OPML files - Search across all your articles instantly - Star articles to save them — starred items are never deleted by retention rules Newsairy Pro — a single, one-time purchase — removes the 6-feed limit (free accounts include up to 6 local and 6 iCloud feeds) and adds sync with TheOldReader, Feedbin, Inoreader, Miniflux and FreshRSS, bringing your existing subscriptions, read state, and starred articles with you.
