When you want a gorgeous approach to the news, then Unread is the app you need.

Customize. While Unread is gorgeous by default, the app lets users customize it even further so that it is best suited for their tastes. To do this, there are a number of different color themes available in the app that you can access from anywhere with just a swipe. There are even hidden themes that you have to unlock on your own, and the app also has a lot of various settings that you can change for a better reading experience.

Customize
Clean reading view

Clean reading view. When you find an article that interests you in Unread, just tap on it to get to the reading view. Unread gives you clean and distraction-free zone so you can enjoy the story in peace. And if you need to view the full webpage, just tap on the headline or swipe to bring up even more options.

Visual emphasis. There is a lot of visual emphasis in Unread. You have gorgeous aesthetics and thumbnails are also shown when you're viewing a list of articles. While this makes it a bit harder to just skim through the headlines, it's great if you like to see visuals to get a better understanding of what a link is going to be about before diving in.

What is it about?

Unread is a traditional RSS reader app that works with a variety of RSS services, but it takes more beautiful approach than the competition. When your RSS service of choice is linked with Unread, you'll get all of your folders and feeds, and you can even see thumbnail images in the article list view. Unread also features a ton of different themes (with some secret ones you have to discover on your own), plenty of customization options for the reading experience, and it is super fast. Plus, with all of the swipe-based and multitouch gestures used to navigate, it's definitely a great and intuitive experience.

For those who...

  • Like a gorgeous app for reading the news
  • Like to customize apps to their specifications
  • Prefer traditional RSS readers but want a bit of modern flair

Not for those who...

  • Don't care about looks
  • Want to be able to quickly skim through the headlines without visuals
  • Want faster shortcuts for actions

Why we love it

Unread is a gorgeous approach to traditional RSS. It's super intuitive to navigate and the customization options are top-notch. No matter what you're reading in Unread, you can be sure that it is going to look good.
