Tribb is a calm RSS reader for iPhone and iPad. Follow the sources you choose and read them in one quiet place. The Reader shows your unread posts one at a time. Save a post, mark it as read, or choose Read at end to see it after everything else. Articles lists your Unread, All, and Saved posts. Articles open on the publisher’s own webpage, with native controls to save and summarize. Create an on-device Summary with Apple Intelligence when it is available. Tribb does not send article text to a third-party AI provider. Follow RSS, Atom, JSON Feed, podcasts, and supported video feeds. Start with suggested feeds, add a feed by its address, or import an OPML file. Export your feeds as OPML at any time. Listen with background audio, AirPlay, and system playback controls. Reading Stats shows your streak, best streak, a 24-week heatmap, and your most read feeds, counted on your device. Widgets show your unread count, newest headlines, and reading streak on the Home Screen. Streak widgets also work on the Lock Screen and in StandBy. Ask Siri what’s new in Tribb, save the article on screen, subscribe to the page you’re reading, or resume the last episode. The same actions work in Shortcuts. On iPad, Articles, Feeds, and Search show the list beside the article. Your library starts on this device. With private iCloud sync, your feeds, Saved posts, reading positions, and stats stay the same on your iPhone and iPad. Tribb requires no account and adds no ads, tracking, or third-party analytics. Publisher webpages can contain ads and tracking.

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.
