SmartRSS is an AI-powered, cross-platform RSS reader designed to help users manage information overload by aggregating content from diverse sources into a single, unified interface. It is available on iOS, Android, macOS, Windows, and Linux, providing a consistent experience across devices. The app supports feed synchronization with a wide array of backend services, including self-hosted options like FreshRSS and Miniflux, cloud services such as Feedly and Feedbin, and legacy Google Reader API compatible servers, ensuring that users can access their feeds anywhere without losing updates.
A core feature of SmartRSS is its customizable AI integration, allowing users to design tailored prompts and connect to major AI providers like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google Cloud AI. These AI actions can generate summaries, translate text, extract key phrases, analyze sentiment, and create structured data from unstructured content. Additionally, the AI aggregation capability can group up to 100 articles by topic, narrative, or underlying connection, transforming an overwhelming backlog into concise, organized summaries for efficient consumption and sharing.
SmartRSS goes beyond traditional RSS by supporting a broad spectrum of content platforms. Users can easily follow traditional blogs, Medium publications, Mastodon and Bluesky profiles, Substack newsletters, YouTube channels, and Reddit communities simply by pasting a URL; the app automatically discovers the appropriate feed. Articles can be neatly categorized, and a clean, distraction-free reading interface enhances consumption. The app also offers robust personalization, including over 1000 fonts, dynamic color themes with adaptive schemes, and Bionic Reading integration for improved reading speed. Accessibility is prioritized with full VoiceOver and TalkBack support, and a built-in audio player turns articles into an immersive listening experience.
