This is a "news reader" for RDF, RSS and Atom, for iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch and CarPlay: with NewsTeller, you can listen to RSS feeds, in the car or while running around or doing other sports activities. Just download text to speech voices via your phone and enjoy high quality playback. Note that any voice is randomly selected per language group that is either a premium or enhanced voice to increase listening quality. The app will order recent stories according to time and previous usage behavior, by utilizing AI (Core ML) and updating the model every time the app starts. If you are connected to CarPlay, the app will show all the subscribed feeds in your dashboard. Within each feed, you can listen to any story, and even see the main image of it. You can skip forward or backward as you like. For all stories that you’d like to listen in detail on the go, without having to connect to the internet, you can save them on the pinboard. Just make sure to complete the download process before going out. If you have your Apple Watch with you, you can also watch your stories or listen to them. The app does not store personal data on a server. All preferences are stored on the phone only. In addition, no content is replicated or processed on the server with the available feeds. It even stores some information to learn what stories you like and sorts all recent stories accordingly using Apple’s AI technology (called CoreML). New feeds are always added, and through intelligent filtering you can select those feeds and stories that interest you easily. Just select a keyword for the feed or stories Any feedback is always welcome. Thank you.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: NewsTeller at Free against File Manager$'s $2.99. NewsTeller also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 9 months) and review sentiment (67% vs 58%). File Manager$'s advantage is rating (4.5 vs 3.5) and in-app purchases (none vs 1). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
NewsTeller is free to download; File Manager$ costs $2.99 up front. NewsTeller sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. File Manager$ asks for nothing beyond the download.
File Manager$ holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: File Manager$ has 20 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 58% of File Manager$'s written reviews are positive against 67% of NewsTeller's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
File Manager$ ships an update every 9 months, NewsTeller every 9 days. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
