## An Otter RSS Reader Description
&quot;An Otter RSS Reader&quot; is the world&#039;s newest most okayest RSS reader with a high key adorable otter icon!

&quot;This is exactly what I&#039;ve been looking for! A simple RSS reader that syncs my subscribed feeds across my iPhone, iPad, and Mac. This developer is genius! I think he nailed it with this app&quot;
- Josh Holtz

FEATURES
+ Subscribe to RSS Feeds that sync over iCloud
Fetches RSS feeds and refreshes in a background task or on a pull-to-refresh.

+ Auto Discover Feeds
Simply enter the domain of website (like anotterrss.com) and Otter will attempt to discover all RSS feed urls to choose from.

+ Group Feeds Into Folders
You know... because organization is important.

+ Read Articles In A Normal Web View
This isn&#039;t anything special. This is why its the okayest and minimalist. Just read the article like how it was supposed to be read. Is it even a reader? It might just be a syncer.

+ Shortcuts
Have fun automating with Shortcut actions for listing feeds, listing articles, and subscribing to new feeds.

+ Widgets
Add some gorgeous widgets to your Home Screen to show unread count for either all feeds or a specific folder of feeds.

+ Import/Export with OPML
Import your feeds with an OPML file (if you have one from your existing RSS reader). Export your feeds into an OPML file if you hate &quot;An Otter RSS&quot; and want to move to another app. We&#039;ll understand. There are plenty of other apps out there and this one might not be the one for you!

## An Otter RSS Reader Reviews in United States

### ***** "Abandoned Gem app"
It’s been my favorite app I used to use for years. But it’s been long abandoned for 2 years now since last update. Sad to see you go bud.
-- dgherastovschi, 2024-05-21

### *---- "Not bad for an early release (updated)"
Original review below is over 2 years old and it&#039;s been over a year since an update. An abandoned app can&#039;t be anything more than 1 star. 

Already after one update many of the request I and others have been added as well as comlaints being addressed. Updating to 5 stars. Check app update history for what&#039;s been addressed. The reader mode is nicest I&#039;ve seen so far. You can create folders and move your feeds into them, you can import opml from other apps which maintains folder hierarchy if that app supports folders. What it needs. Mark articles read on scrolling past them Option to hide read articles by default instead of manually hiding all the time. When clicking on a top level folder it expands the folder clicking the arrow should expand the folder. There is no way to view all stories in a top folder. For example I have a tech folder and have to go to every single sub folder and read the stories I should be able to just click the tech folder and see the stories in that folder. Needs swipe gestures example swipe right mark read/unread swipe left add to favorite. When viewing stories there is about a quarter inch of empty space on the left and right making appear almost window boxed. The story headlines should go the width of the screen to see more words in the title. Need to add an option to sort by oldest and newest first. If in reader mode hitting the safari button should open in the in app browser instead of leaving the app. If we want to leave the app from that screen the safari button should open in your default browser. Under notifications there should be an option to show badge count with unread articles. Should be an option to see favicons to the left of the headline to quickly see at a glance which site posted the story as well as an option to enable images if there is one in the story. Either a small image to the right of the headline or a large image below the headline. All in all it&#039;s a really good start it&#039;s just not ready to be my main RSS app for now I&#039;m sticking with Reeder and NetNewsWire. I am going to keep Otter installed and look forward to future updates.
-- Heftybags, 2023-03-11

### *---- "Inconsistent function"
The ability to subscribe to a feed from Safari is very inconsistent. I love this app but it only seems to work when it feels like it. Please fix that. :)

-

Update: it keep completely dumping my feeds now. To the point I&#039;ve lost a lot of feeds for no reason. I&#039;ll save them, go to another app, come back and they&#039;re gone. ALSO, I notice a parallel between when I leave this app and have this issue and keyboard malfunctions.

Something is going goofy. Still like the app but it&#039;s unstable so I&#039;ll have to use something else for now. Which is sad. This is the closest thing to Google Reader I&#039;ve seen since they shut that down. 😭
-- Raantuva, 2022-08-15

### **--- "Crashes"
More attractive and better UI than most other RSS apps, but unfortunately crashes anytime I try to play a video
-- mnbvcxzpoiuytrewqlkjhgfdsa, 2022-04-17

### ***-- "Trouble persisting feeds"
Hey, I have been having trouble having feeds persist after closing the app; when I subscribe to feeds and close the app, all the feeds are gone, making me have to read each url. Unsure if theres a way to save different feeds?

Otherwise love the minimalist nature of the app!
-- apple user fr, 2021-12-18

### ***** "Better than ok"
I’d been struggling with the rss readers in the app store. Every one of them is very pretty, fine, but every one of them mostly serves up whatever specific sources the developer wants me to see. Otter is beautiful, minimal, and functional. I add the rss, I get a list of headlines, and I can organize them by folder. Literally all I wanted. 

….ok I wouldn’t be sad if there was a toggle option to turn on thumbail images on the screen preview list for articles, I do follow a lot of art blogs, but that’s it. Otherwise perfect. If that would mess up the wonderful design this app has, then better than perfect and forget I said anything at all.
-- MagneticCrow, 2021-12-01

### ***** "You otter know …"
that Otter RSS is the best feed reader I’ve come across to date. The best part, you ask? … is that it’s free but is well deserving of the tip option it features.
-- ksuudilla, 2021-11-18

### *---- "Abandonware"
Hasn’t been updated in nearly half a year despite several bugs and lack of polish. Don’t waste your time.
-- dar.irl, 2021-09-23

### **--- "Good app, still buggy"
Would be the perfect RSS app however several bugs prevent it from being completely functional. Pull-to-refresh breaks if you have too many feeds. Share sheet button doesn’t do anything on the article view. Restoring purchases doesn’t work. Would recommend adding icons to the feeds. If fixed would be perfect.
-- LoopinLu, 2021-08-09

### ***** "Clean, simple to use, with integration and extras included"
I haven&#039;t dug too much, but the fact you have a debug area for people to clean if they want is, to me at least very appreciated. I have two questions, but before that. One suggestion. Instead of having to have a setting default to switching the state to read when clicked, or doing it after you leave the view, maybe a button at the bottom such can be added to give you options to have it read, even delete it (If it&#039;s causing extra memory to be used that is, not sure how that works) if they no longer need it, but then have the extra options to move that certain post in case they will be using it again. Questions. Is it being implemented as a browser in the app that will have cookies and trackers latch on? Also, the serious one for now.. Why does it seem like every developer, or just I don&#039;t even know.. What is going on with Twitter?? Hahaha. Thanks!

Not sure why it didn&#039;t paragraph my text.. I surely did, also an issue. I subscribed to the Otter and the indiedev, when I came to type that first review, I went back to the app and the feeds were gone. Like they got consumed after they were already consumed, haha.
