An Otter 2.0 brings the Front Page to iPhone and iPad, with native adaptive columns, a calmer serif reader, and Reading Insights. Same otter, much fresher home.
An Otter RSS Reader is a simple RSS reader for following news, blogs, and personal sites without another account.
Subscribe to feeds, organize them into folders, and let iCloud keep everything in sync across your iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Otter keeps the experience intentionally calm: quick refreshes, native navigation, readable article views, and just enough personality to make checking your feeds feel pleasant.
New in 2.0, the iPad edition grew up. The Front Page opens to today's stories while native adaptive columns keep feeds and the story list side by side when there’s room, then collapse cleanly on smaller screens. Articles set in a real serif with a comfortable reading measure, on iPad and iPhone alike.
Features:
- Subscribe to RSS, Atom, JSON Feed, and XML feeds
- Sync subscriptions and reading state with iCloud
- The Front Page: a daily opening spread across iPhone and iPad
- Smart Folders that fill themselves — long reads, quick reads, podcasts, videos
- A serif reading view with adjustable typography
- Reading Insights: streaks, reading calendar, and when-you-read patterns
- Organize feeds into folders
- Import and export subscriptions with OPML
- Keyboard shortcuts and menu commands on iPad
- Refresh feeds in the background or manually
- Shortcuts actions, Home Screen widgets, and alternate app icons
Otter Pro, the optional subscription, adds ad-free reading, custom Smart Folders, TL;DR article summaries, and the full Reading Insights dashboard.
Otter is not trying to be a social network, inbox, or power-user dashboard. It is a practical little RSS reader for people who still like the open web.
