Reeder

What Reeder is

Reeder is an inbox for reading, watching, and listening to content from multiple sources on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Its unified timeline combines RSS feeds, videos, podcasts, and social media posts, and syncs timeline position across devices so users can return to where they stopped. Custom timelines can be filtered by keywords, media types, or feed types. Reeder syncs subscriptions, tagged items, and timeline position through iCloud. Saving a link from outside the app uses its share extension and requires iCloud for Reeder to be enabled. Subscribers can turn tags into public, automatically updated JSON feeds; each feed shows up to the latest 50 tagged items and is hosted publicly on reederapp.net. The free plan costs nothing and supports up to 10 feeds. The subscription costs $1 a month and covers iPhone, iPad, and Mac, including Shared Feeds. The new Reeder does not support third-party sync services. Reeder Classic remains available as a traditional RSS reader with a one-time purchase and no subscription requirement.

Who it suits

Reeder suits people who want reading, video, podcast, and social sources collected in one timeline across Apple devices. The free plan fits users with up to 10 feeds who do not need Shared Feeds.

Limits

The free plan supports up to 10 feeds and excludes Shared Feeds, Home timelines from Mastodon, Bluesky, or Micro.blog, and OPML import. The subscription is $1 a month, billed monthly.
