AiryFeed parses feeds right on your device and pulls articles into a focused reader view, so you get the words without the clutter. What makes AiryFeed different is on-device AI.

The text is processed entirely on your iPhone. • Clean reader view — distraction-free reading with comfortable typography. • Organize with folders — group feeds the way you think. • Read & star — track what you've read and save the articles that matter. • Full-text search — find any article across your subscriptions. • Offline reading — your library is cached on device, so it just works on the subway or a plane. • Sync across devices — pick up right where you left off. No account or sign-up required. • Built for iOS — a native SwiftUI app designed for iPhone. ON-DEVICE AI, PRIVATE BY DESIGN AiryFeed's summarization runs entirely on your device. The article text it reads stays on your iPhone — it is never uploaded for processing. That's the whole point: powerful AI without handing your reading over to a server. AiryFeed is free, supported by a single unobtrusive banner ad. Personalized ads use your device's advertising identifier only with your permission (you'll be asked, and you can decline).
