Newsbin — a private RSS reader for every Apple device Newsbin is a fast, private RSS reader built for people who are tired of the modern web's noise — AI-generated junk, paywalls, intrusive ads, "subscribe to my newsletter!" pop-ups, and reader apps that quietly went subscription-only. It's the RSS reader I always wanted: clean, native, private, and the same wherever I read. Follow your favorite blogs, news sites, newsletters, and YouTube channels in one place, with a modern interface that puts content first — no ads, no tracking, and no algorithm deciding what you see. Native on every Apple device Newsbin is genuinely native on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, and Vision Pro — including a real reading experience on the last two, which most RSS apps skip. It's built in Swift and designed to feel at home on each platform, not like a website wrapped in a shell. Your feeds, synced your way Everything syncs automatically through your own iCloud account — or peer-to-peer between nearby devices, with no cloud at all. There's no third-party account to create and nothing to sign up for. Curate the noise Tags, smart groups, and blocklists let you shape exactly what shows up — group articles by feed, topic, or date, and quietly mute the things you'd rather not see. Read your way A full-article reader mode loads complete, distraction-free stories with audio, video, and rich embeds intact. Choose list, grid, or large-preview layouts; scroll to mark articles as read automatically, or switch unread indicators off entirely and just browse. Built-in conveniences Home Screen and desktop widgets, system-wide Spotlight search, a Safari extension for adding feeds while you browse, offline reading, and thoughtful notifications when new unread stories arrive. Private by design, with no lock-in Newsbin collects zero data and never tracks your reading. Your subscriptions are always yours — import and export OPML anytime. Pricing Free to try. Pay once for life ($34.99), or subscribe ($2.99/mo) — your choice, no lock-in. Newsbin is made by Xetabit, a solo Apple studio, and updated almost every week.

Exactly the RSS reader I've been wanting — no ads, no "AI-generated junk" feeds, just clean reading across every device. The renaissance of privacy-first RSS is very welcome.
Looks nice 👍 congrats on the launch
Great to see RSS being revived. I noticed how many feeds are being shut down or replaced with paywalled alternatives. There's a real appetite for clean, private content consumption.
Finally a privacy-first RSS reader built for Apple ecosystem. Love the native implementation across all devices. Safari extension and smart curation features make content discovery effortless without algorithmic manipulation. Perfect for re
