## Current Description
Current is an RSS reader built on a simple idea: your feed should never make you feel behind.

There are no unread counts. No red badges. No number climbing while you sleep, silently tallying everything you haven't read. Current shows you what's new right now, and that's it. Nothing is owed. Nothing is overdue. You open it when you want to read, and whatever's there is what's there.

The design is intentional. Every screen, every interaction, every animation was built to feel calm and unhurried. Articles are presented beautifully with clean typography and generous whitespace. Navigation is fluid and intuitive. The app gets out of the way and lets you focus on what matters: the writing.

Current supports multiple sync providers so you can bring your existing subscriptions:

- Feedbin
- Inoreader
- MiniFlux
- FreshRSS 
- The Old Reader
- NewsBlur
- Local RSS (on-device, no account needed)

Features:

- Universal app for iPhone, iPad, and Mac
- Beautiful article reader with smart formatting
- Full-text article extraction
- Light and dark themes
- Background refresh
- OPML import and export
- Share extension
- Keyboard shortcuts on iPad and Mac
- iCloud sync for local feeds

Current is a one-time purchase. No subscription. No ads. No tracking. Just an app you buy once and own forever.

Built by an indie developer who wanted to love RSS again.

## Current Reviews in United States

### ***** "This is how internet content should be digested."
In over 20 years of smartphone ownership, this singularly the best app I have ever installed. Online content can easily become overwhelming, in both speed and volume. That feeling has only grown over time as we’ve moved from blogs, news, forums to social media. 

I’d love to see the “currrents” approach available on social media apps. Even decentralized social media, like Mastodon, can still give you a sense of endless scrolling to catch up on what you think you missed. FOMO is a real problem. 

For now, my RSS feeds have become more human. More sane.
-- SatiZephyr, 2026-05-26

### ****- "Update: really needs filters"
Originally I had this at five stars, because it is awesome. And while that is true, it could really use filters for me to fine tune my sources. 

The app has these weird overly general suggestions like “you skipped the last several stories about Apple,” but I really just want to stop seeing the Apple TV, Apple Music, and Apple Watch stories from that source (as an example). 

Some sources cover a bunch of subjects, but I really just want one or two of them. I can filter very well on Bluesky, so I tend to not use Current nearly as much.
-- Create Nickname. Okay., 2026-05-04

### ****- "Very nice. Just two notes:"
The reading view does not respond correctly to taps at the top, which should cause the article to scroll to the top. 

The custom webview looks nice with its custom toolbar, but since the app needs to open a standard webview in order to display Safari Reader mode, there seems little point in not just opening the standard webview in the first place. Also, the custom webview doesn't support magnification.
-- Chulerino, 2026-05-01

### ***** "Finally"
I’ve finally found an RSS reader that seems perfectly okay with my tendency to just nope out of online life now and then. I don’t feel overwhelmed by unread stories. I can just hop in and vibe with the flow. This is a news aggregator that just sorta rolls with my flakiness. In the best way.
-- NateCow, 2026-04-18

### ***** "Beautifully Stress Free"
This reader removes all the stress from following many feeds, it gives you control of what matters and somehow does that with very simple controls. This is a marvel of design (actual design: both how it looks and how it functions)
-- Mr. F reviewer, 2026-04-17

### ***** "The RSS client I didn’t know I needed"
I can have various feeds that publish at wildly different cadences and for the first time not feel overwhelmed by the content I’ve chosen to subscribe to.
-- JustinRIT, 2026-04-17

### ****- "User interface issues stop me from loving this."
I really want to like this app but there are any issues with going to a webpage where videos on the webpage will just keep trying to open full screen and I can’t find a setting to actually disable these features.
-- kmbone, 2026-04-16

### ***-- "Missing Articles"
A core function of a good RSS  reader is its ability to fetch your feeds and this app is struggling to do that.
-- jnDLWNdtNAvYtwjRovrFsrZyhPNrCv, 2026-04-15

### **--- "It looks great, but needs some work"
Nice looking app, and I like the minimalist styling, but found it took too long to load articles, and I somehow often ended up with the author image at the top instead of the article image. Also, missed the ability to filter articles out based on keyword, author, etc.
-- Nondescriptuser, 2026-04-13

### ****- "Very cool concept. Lots of glitches"
The concept is great but usability is really tough right now. Suggestions: make adding sources to a current way more seamless and usable. Fix the many many glitches. Eg, renaming a source works about 30% of the time. Disappointed I spent $10 on something that feels very alpha. Maybe beta. 

That being said I am rooting for this app and hope it gets better because the concept is great. For now I’ll sadly go back to my original rss
Feed because it’s been extremely annoying to set up.
