Tide Reading List vs Marked

Tide is a reading list that doesn't let things pile up. Save an article and you get 30 days to read it. Then it flows out. No exceptions, no snooze button. Most reading lists turn into a guilt pile. Tide doesn't. Every article shows how much of its tide is left, so you can see what's about to go and actually read it. And if it flows out, it probably wasn't that important. If it was, it'll wash up again. Saving In Safari or any app, tap Share and choose Tide. It's saved right away, and you can fix the title before closing if you want. You can also paste a link in the app or save from Shortcuts. Reading Tap an article to read it. Turn on Reading View in Settings and articles open as clean text, without clutter. If a site doesn't work that way, it just opens the normal page. On iPad or with your iPhone turned sideways, your list and the article sit side by side. Listening Tide can read articles to you. Touch and hold an article and choose Listen, or ask Siri to "Read my next article in Tide." It keeps going with your phone locked, and it remembers where you stopped. Offline Tide keeps a clean copy of every article, so you can still read on a plane or the subway. Reminders Get a heads-up before something flows out. You pick how many days ahead, or turn reminders off. Widgets • Flowing Out shows what's leaving soonest. • Surprise Me picks a random article for you, with a shuffle button. Done reading When you finish an article, mark it done and it's gone. That's the point. Private Tide doesn't collect anything. No accounts, no tracking. Your list stays on your device, and reading aloud happens on your device too. 30 days. Read it or let it go.

Marked is a Markdown reader and editor designed first as a reading app — think Apple Books for your .md files. Open any Markdown document from Files or iCloud Drive and read it with the calm of a book: classic typography, generous margins, justified text with automatic hyphenation, and Light, Sepia and Dark themes. A READING-FIRST EXPERIENCE • Three reading themes: Light, Sepia and Dark. • Nine curated typefaces: system serif, New York, Georgia, Palatino, Times New Roman, Helvetica Neue, Avenir Next, Iowan Old Style and Charter. • Adjustable font size, line spacing and horizontal margins. • Justified text with automatic hyphenation for a book-like rhythm. • Native rendering of headings, lists, quotes, code blocks, links and tables. • Styled blockquotes with accent bar, soft background tint and a decorative quote glyph. • Wrap-first tables that fit cell text to the screen and only scroll horizontally when wrapping is not enough. SYNTAX HIGHLIGHTING • Fenced code blocks are highlighted with automatic language detection (highlight.js via HighlighterSwift). • The editor colours Markdown markup live — headings, emphasis, code spans, links and lists — without getting in the way of plain-text editing. QUICK EDITING • Built-in plain-text editor with in-place save to the original file. • New documents open straight into the editor. • Jump to any line directly from the table of contents or search results. • Debounced highlighting keeps large files responsive while typing. NAVIGATION • Auto-generated table of contents from the document's headings. • In-document search: per section in reader mode and per line in editor mode. • Recent files list with per-document reading position and progress, Apple Notes–style file count under the title. FAST AND SMOOTH • Documents open asynchronously so the UI never blocks on large files. • Theme and font changes reuse the parsed document and existing section views instead of rebuilding from scratch. • Smart subview reuse keeps scrolling fluid in long documents. WORKS WITH YOUR FILES • Opens .md, .markdown, .mdown and .mkd files from Files, iCloud Drive and "Open with…". • Create new Markdown documents from inside the app. • Security-scoped bookmarks remember where each file lives, so recents keep working after relaunch. PRIVACY BY DESIGN • Everything runs on your device. Marked has no servers. • No accounts, no telemetry, no advertising, no tracking. • Your files stay exactly where you keep them — the app only opens them. Ideal for reading notes, technical documentation, project READMEs, long-form articles or books written in Markdown — and for making quick edits without leaving the reading flow.
