NewsTap is a powerful Usenet Newsreader for the iPad, iPhone and the iPod Touch.

Features:
- Optimized for offline usage, so you can read and write news articles without an internet connection

- The application fully supports the portrait and landscape mode.

- Support for binary groups (photos and other files). Photos and pictures can be displayed directly. It's possible to add photos into the photo album or open them in other Apps. 

- Quotes are displayed in different colors. Colors are also used to distinguish between read and unread articles, filtered articles.

- Optimized article layout for the small iPhone display. The original article layout is also available.

- Navigate within the articles from within the thread view or simply by flipping to the next/previous article with your finger.

- A graphical „tree view“ visualizes a complete discussion and makes it super-easy to follow and participate discussions.

- It's possible to hide articles that are already read and to hide quotes.

- Sync the read/unread states of the articles using a „newsrc“ file with other usenet client. The sync can be done via SFTP, WebDAV, Dropbox and iCloud.

- Post new articles or send followups.  

- Build-in help, which explains all the application features.

## NewsTap (Usenet Newsreader) Reviews in Vereinigtes Königreich

### ****- "Good but isolated"
It's a nice app. An oldie too.

One thing I think is curious is that it still doesn't have a url-scheme, so you can't share a post with someone else. I'd like to see the developer create a url-scheme that can be used to jump to specific posts on specific servers, and also add sharing of posts and servers to the iOS share sheet. It can't be that hard. I get that it's niche but the whole app is niche. Own the niche I say.
-- Marsmite, 2024-12-19

### ***-- "Killfiles need attention"
As a usenet application it’s ok but the filters (killfiles) need the option to Delete posts. As it is, simply marking them as read still leaves them cluttering up the timeline. 
A kill filter should do just that, kill the posts, ie delete them. 
By definition they are not wanted, not just marked as read.

### ***** "It's great this exists"
Having not read news for several years, I'm really glad to find that NewsTap still exists and is supported: thanks!
