“Most importantly, I should stress again how refreshing it feels to have such a great native experience with Unread. The app is really fast, even when it’s loaded up with hundreds of feeds.”
— Niléane Dorffer, MacStories

“It’s an RSS reader made with taste. It has great typography, themes, search, and compatibility with the usual suspects. I love having this app on my Mac.”
— David Sparks, MacSparky

“Unread is focused on eliminating chrome — it is a pure reading app. It’s like reader mode all the time, and the assortment of color themes is nicely curated.”
– John Gruber, Daring Fireball

## Unread Reviews in United States

### ***** "Excellent!"
I can’t believe this application isn’t more popular. This is an amazing app.
-- Rpm-80, 2026-08-29

### ***** "My honest review of Unread"
• I moved to Unread after my old RSS app crashed too often. The move was smooth.
• The OPML import worked with no errors. All my feeds loaded at once.
• The design stays out of the way. Nothing sits between you and the article. You just read.
• Tags group your feeds into themed lists. You can open one topic and catch up fast. This makes it easy to stay current on your favorite subjects.

Unread earns five stars from me. I recommend it to any reader who wants a clean, distraction-free RSS app.
-- MikeKZen, 2026-08-21

### ***** "Sharing selected text exactly what I was looking for 👊🏽"
Wish I’d known this app existed before since I was looking for a way to share the highlighted text with the article and I just couldn’t find any app that did that in fact I was even thinking of writing my own until I stumbled across Unread 👍🏼

And shoutout for loading full articles whether from a link post or otherwise. After years of using Reeder I hadn’t realised how much of a boon this would be.
-- pendolino, 2026-04-25

### ***** "One of my favorite apps!"
Fantastic tool for those that love a good long read! Between this and Raindrop.io, I’m set!
-- MusicMusketeer, 2026-03-08

### ****- "The Bear of RSS readers!"
The Bear Note app is known for its wonderful UX, and Unread meets that definition for me.
-- k9mac, 2025-11-25

### *---- "Needs Simplifying"
Difficult to Figure Out Setup
-- Stop Requesting A Username, 2025-11-08

### ***** "Website Accounts feature: game changer"
I just came back to Unread from a couple of years with Reeder Classic because of the promise of Website Accounts. I subscribe to The Economist which only shows partial content in its RSS feed, forcing you to click through to the website in Safari. Now Unread can save your login and extract the full text of the target page, meaning I can read continuously in a single app.  Very polished and convenient, well done dev!
-- OhSnapMD, 2025-10-05

### ****- "Miniflux Support"
I hope to support miniflux instances, although the fever api can indirectly support miniflux, but fever does not support slide read, and also in the phasing out, the official are not recommended.
-- Chris like Chao, 2025-09-06

### ***** "Great app!"
Great UI, easy to use, very responsive. Highly recommend for RSS users.
-- Ed231-0, 2025-08-17

### ***-- "Doesn’t remember place"
I’ll leave an article half read then come back later, and it’s lost my place. (It’s been like this for months, not a recent bug.)

Footnotes (tapping …) show up in a white background even though I’m in dark mode, resulting in the dark bedroom being blasted with light as my partner sleeps.
