It's not on visionOS like the rest of my timeline (yet?) but my latest small side-project is so far an iOS RSS reader with some News influences. Aiming for something to casually browse recent posts, without encouraging completionism using unread counts or badges.
It’s been a while! OPML import & export are working, folder sorting is in, plus adding feeds got a little polish.
I didn’t realise how much the app needed background refresh until I implemented it – much easier than I’d expected!
Little nervous, but it’s time to TestFlight my RSS news reader for iOS & visionOS. It’s deliberately designed as a feed for stress-free, anti-completionist reading, without unread counts.
It's a little rough around the edges, and I'm not sure if anyone’s interested in this kinda of thing, but if you are, please give it a try! https://testflight.apple.com/join/bCe8UVrf
@sebj FYI, some services will export subscriptions as a .xml file. The app currently will not let you select it from the file picker. I changed the extension on the file to .opml and it worked flawlessly. I exported my subscriptions from Feedbin.
@nickclements Ah good catch thanks! This is fixed in build 5, rolling out now
@sebj Thanks for the quick response! I just re-imported my feeds from the XML file and it worked great.
