The application sits in the Mac’s menu bar and is updated in real time. At some point I will get around to adding some more, but in the meantime please let me (and our other readers) know if you have any suggestions for other great RSS readers in the comments. UPDATE: Since this article was published a few of these apps have been discontinued. Here’s a selection of the best and most highly rated RSS readers currently available in the Mac App Store, in alphabetical order… Most of the popular ones can also synchronise with a Google Reader account – head over to the Google website to set one up (it’s free!). It’s even possible to add news feeds in the Mail app, but many people prefer separate RSS readers because they tend to have much more functionality than Mail (in Mountain Lion, Apple seems to have removed RSS functionality from Mail completely).ĭozens of third-party RSS news readers are available in the Mac App Store, many of which can also synchronise with your iPad and iPhone. Simply click on the RSS button that appears in the title bar of Safari when a website’s feed is detected, and your default news reader pops up and prompts you to subscribe. RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication, and if you’re not already familiar with it, it’s used by many websites as a convenient way to let readers subscribe to news.
There’s no better way to keep up to date with the latest news than with an RSS reader, because it can save you the trouble of visiting a dozen or more individual websites to get your daily fix of news.
