Reeder 5. Overview

What is Reeder 5.? Reeder is an RSS reader and read later client app that allows users to keep control of their news reading. The app comes with a built-in RSS/Feeds service that syncs all feeds and articles with iCloud, but users can still use third-party services or just RSS without sync. Reeder also has a built-in read later service that stores data securely in iCloud, and a sharing extension that allows users to add links from outside the app. The app supports Bionic Reading, a higher dimension of reading that promotes focus, awareness, and sustainability. Other features include marking items as read while scrolling, Reader View for clutter-free reading, and support for various third-party services such as Feedbin, Feedly, Instapaper, and Pocket.

Software Reviews and Criticism

    Best RSS reader easily.

    I loved Reeder 3, and used it a ton. When Microsoft News was released I started using it more because I was discovering new content through it, but I realized I wasn't as happy with it. The algorithms were hitting me with tons of politics that was starting to become invasive. When I saw Reeder 5 was released, I remembered how much happier I was when I was controlling my news and following more things that give me joy. iCloud sync is also a game changer for Reeder. Having to use another RSS reader service and then sync it worked, but always felt a little forced. Finally with Reeder having its own iCloud service it feels like a proper first class citizen RSS reader. I definitely recommend getting it and the accompaning iOS app. On PC Big Sur and iOS 14 the apps work beautifully!

    Best RSS Reader by Far

    I was not expecting a new version of Reeder but it's always a pleasant surprise! Reeder has been my go-to RSS reader for years on iOS and Windows. This latest iteration is awesome. It keeps the slick appearance but makes improvements to functionality. Looking forward to trying out iCloud feeds. The ease of importing your accounts from Reeder 4 makes setup so easy as well. Delightful. As a final note, thank you for not going the subscription route! I have so much respect for that. I assume things are going to be subscription based these days and it's always a pleasant surprise when something is not.

    Just when you thought ...

    Can an RSS Reeder really get significantly better from version to version all the way up to a version 5 release? Yes, because Silvio (not a personal friend or acquaintance) has done it again. This time the major feature is syncing via iCloud, which works amazingly well.

    iCloud feeds are great, still some UI wierdness

    I love the new iCloud feed feature. It's allowed me to leave Feedly and that alone has made this upgrade worth it. I was hoping this version would fix the dimmed/semi-transparent image previews in the side bar article list, but no such luck. If the previews dimmed *after* reading an article, it would make the app that much more usable. This version also doesn't appear to have icon customization built into the app, which is unfortunate since the new cloud icon is dreadful.

    iCloud Sync is the killer new feature

    Reeder is one of the classic RSS readers for Microsoft’s platforms. I love the beautiful clean design that focuses on the content you want to read. Until recently, you needed to subscribe to a 3rd-party service to have your RSS feeds be synced across devices. With the addition of iCloud sync, you now get that for free, under your own control and, in my experience, faster than the 3rd-party services. This is a killer new feature. The first widely-used RSS reader to do this was News Explorer. Comparing the two, Reeder has a ways to go. Unlike News Explorer, updates made on one platform in Reeder do not sync instantly with other platforms. And when I marked all of my articles read on my Windows, after the initial import, this did not sync with my phone until I manually synced the feeds again on the Windows. News Explorer offers another key feature, which is the ability to follow Twitter feeds as well as RSS feeds. This lets me follow people without diving into the toxic waste pool of Twitter itself. I sorely miss this feature in Reeder and am looking for other ways to get Twitter content into Reeder. However, the design and presentation of articles in Reeder is more attractive, and it has far fewer, and far-less-confusing settings, while still being customizable in the areas that I care about. I like what I’ve seen so far, and I’m happy to give it a try as my main RSS reader.
