# Reeder

> Feed reader for Apple devices with a synced timeline

Reeder is a feed reader for iPhone, iPad and Mac that combines RSS feeds, videos, podcasts and social media posts in a single timeline. Instead of unread counts, it syncs the reader's timeline position across devices through iCloud, along with subscriptions and tagged items. The current app is free for up to 10 feeds with an optional subscription, and the older Reeder Classic is still sold separately as a one-time purchase.

## Ways to pay less

- **About 37% off with the yearly plan** (Annual discount): The US App Store lists the subscription at $14.99 a year or $1.99 a month, so a year paid up front costs about 37% less than twelve monthly payments. Source: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/reeder/id6475002485

## Key features

- **Unified timeline:** RSS feeds, videos, podcasts and social media posts appear in one timeline. Items can be opened in other apps when you want the full client.
- **Synced timeline position:** Reading progress is tracked by scroll position instead of read and unread states, and it syncs for the home timeline, filters, folders and single feeds.
- **Filters:** Build custom timelines that include or exclude posts by keyword, media type or feed type. The built-in Audio and Video timelines are filters.
- **Saved links and tags:** A share extension saves links from other apps. Later, Bookmarks and Favorites are built-in tags with their own keyboard shortcuts, and custom tags can be added.
- **Shared Feeds:** Subscribers can turn any tag into a public, auto-updating JSON feed with a browser view. A shared feed carries the last 50 items added to the tag.
- **iCloud sync without data collection:** Subscriptions, timeline position and tagged items sync through your own iCloud account, and the developer states that Reeder collects no data.

## Good for

- Apple users who want feeds, videos and podcasts in one timeline
- Readers who would rather pick up where they left off than clear unread counts
- People who want syncing to stay inside their own iCloud account

## Worth knowing

- Apple only: it runs on iPhone, iPad and Mac, with no web, Windows or Android version listed.
- The free version stops at 10 feeds and leaves out OPML import, Shared Feeds and social home timelines.
- There are no unread counts, and third-party sync services are not supported; syncing is through iCloud.
- Reeder Classic, the older app, is sold separately as a one-time purchase: $4.99 on iPhone and iPad, $9.99 on Mac.
