Free

The application is completely free, with no ads or registration required.

Configuration

In the initial setup and settings, you can customize the language and choose topics to follow, such as sports, motors, travel, music, and more.

Sources

You can easily add other sites by searching for the address or checking popular and recommended sources.

Compatibility

The app supports all sites that use RSS/ATOM. In cases where a site doesn't support these formats, you can use its Google News address.

Layout

By default, news is displayed in a scrollable list. Alternatively, you can view one article per page with an image, title, and description.

Privacy

Rest assured that your preferences are saved locally, and no email or account is required. Your data is not stored elsewhere.

Categories

You can organize followed sites into different tabs on the main screen for easy access.

Lists

Use the "read later" and "favorites" features to save articles for viewing at a later time.

Sharing

Easily share news with others through the "copy link" and "share" options.

Offline

Access previously downloaded content even without an internet connection.

Customization

Personalize your experience by customizing colors, language, news limits, dark mode, and more.

Filters

Exclude news containing specific words using the settings and parental control features.

Under the Hood

The app retrieves news from the internet via HTTP requests from RSS feeds, similar to Google News. Essential information such as title, date, and time is extracted from XML and saved locally in an SQLite database. Images and descriptions are retrieved from site metadata, similar to WhatsApp.

Technologies

Language: Dart, Framework: Flutter, Design: Material Design 3

Optimization

The application is optimized to use minimal internet data, loading thousands of news articles in just a few MB by reading only textual data. The cache is used to minimize network requests, automatically emptied after a few hours, and old articles are deleted automatically.

Performance

The app loads hundreds of sites within seconds, making network requests in parallel. Offline sites are ignored, and there's a maximum connection time for slower sites.

Battery

Thanks to the absence of background processes, syncs, and notifications, the app does not consume battery once closed by the user.

Migrations

Transfer feeds to other devices or migrate from other RSS readers through OPML import/export functionality.
