Leaflet
Read full descriptionHide full description
Leaflet brings the news, blogs, websites, and podcasts you choose into one comfortable place. Read full articles without the clutter, turn your feeds into listening Shows, and save something for your next quiet moment or commute. FOLLOW YOUR SOURCES Add unlimited feeds by pasting a site or feed URL. Discover feeds from websites, YouTube channels, and Mastodon profiles, start with suggested sources, or import subscriptions with OPML. Organize feeds into folders, search your library, and keep track of unread stories. READ YOUR WAY Adjust type, spacing, and themes to make every article comfortable. Retrieve the full story when a feed includes only a preview, read cached articles offline, save stories to Read Later, and star favorites. Open article photos for a closer look, view supported embedded X posts, play inline videos, and return to an unfinished article with Pick up where you left off. TURN FEEDS INTO SHOWS Make a personal listening show from a site, folder, or mix of feeds. Each article becomes a chapter. Choose topics, filter unwanted stories, set the order, and resume where you left off. One Show is included free. Leaflet Plus adds unlimited Shows and Latest, a short catch-up of new unread articles. BUILD YOUR PODCAST LIBRARY Follow podcasts, organize Favorites and groups, and build an Up Next queue. Stream or download episodes, set download preferences for each podcast, and import or export subscriptions with OPML. Explore chapters and artwork, jump from timestamps in episode notes, share from the current time, and choose a playback speed or sleep timer. Shorten Silences can trim quiet pauses in downloaded episodes. FOLLOW ALONG WITH TRANSCRIPTS Read publisher transcripts as an episode plays and tap a line to jump to that moment. On supported devices running iOS 26 or macOS 26 or later, create transcripts on your device, with visible progress and optional automatic transcription for each podcast. LISTEN YOUR WAY Use standard article read aloud for free. With Leaflet Plus, save article audio to Listen Later for offline playback and enjoy natural English voices that run privately on your device. Plus adds background playback for saved article audio, podcasts, and videos. Keep listening with the screen locked or while using other apps. TAKE IT INTO CARPLAY With Leaflet Plus on iPhone, browse and play Shows, saved articles, and podcasts in CarPlay. Control playback, set a sleep timer, and save Show articles to Read Later. NEWSLETTERS IN YOUR READER With Leaflet Plus and a separate Feedbin subscription, read newsletters alongside your feeds, listen to their full text, or add them to a Show. AT HOME ACROSS YOUR DEVICES Read on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, with layouts that adapt to different screen sizes and iPhone Duo's folded, unfolded, and rotated views. On Apple Watch, check unread headlines and summaries, then mark stories read or starred. Use Leaflet without an account, sync your own feeds through iCloud, or connect a supported RSS service. iCloud library sync keeps eligible saved articles, Shows, reading and article-listening progress, smart feeds, and more together across devices. Library sync is automatic with iCloud RSS; Feedbin users can enable it in Accounts settings. On-device RSS libraries stay local. GO FURTHER WITH LEAFLET PLUS One optional, one-time purchase unlocks the Plus features above, plus color highlights you can search and export, a second account, unlimited smart feeds and muted words, keyword alerts, duplicate-story merging, feed cleanup, extra widgets, a true-black theme, alternate icons, reading statistics, and sending articles to Readwise or Instapaper. The core reader is free, including unlimited feeds on one account, full-text and offline reading, standard article read aloud, one Show, podcast library and playback, and an unread widget.
Feedwright

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.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Feedwright at none against Leaflet's 1. Feedwright also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 weeks). Leaflet's advantage is device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (18.0 vs 26.0). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
