What is Lire? Description of Lire

Love RSS feeds? So do we!!

RSS feeds are a great way to follow updates on your favorite website. However, some sites set up their feeds to only show a portion of each entry, you know, to get you to click through to their actual website. We find that really annoying, and we're sure you do too.

Which is why, unlike other RSS feed readers, that either push you into a browser (in-app or otherwise), or depend on third party text parsing services and require you to be online to fetch the full text of one article at a time (which makes it no different from having to click/tap through to a website), in lire, you get your favorite RSS feeds as they should've been. You don't need to click through to any website (though, you do still have the option to, if you really wanted). It takes your favorite partial feeds, does it's magic, and converts them in to full feeds, so you don't have to click/tap on those annoying 'Read more' or 'Continue reading' links.

Once they're cached, you don't even need to be connected to read your full-text feeds.

Use as a standalone feed reader,

or,

sync with any of the several services: Feedly, Feedbin, FeedHQ, The Old Reader, Inoreader, BazQux Reader, Newsblur, Feed Wrangler, FreshRSS, Miniflux, Nextcloud News, Tiny Tiny RSS.

Lire Pros

Excellent Developer SupportI have been using the iOS version for awhile and was happy to see that the same interface carries over to MacOS. I have been experiencing a sproradic crash and have been working with the developer and the response has been EXCELLENT to resolve the issue. I can now retire my previous RSS reader..BlaqKnight808Version: 1.0.4

Lire Cons

Not ready yetLire is one of my favourite iPhone apps – brilliantly designed, very true to iOS from a usability and style point of view, and full of useful features. But it's just not ready for Mac. I have a few small gripes but I'm sure they'll be ironed out in time (e.g. no show/hide buttons when you hover over the sidebar group titles). My first real problem with it is its bugginess – it crashes and freezes *all the time*. But the worst thing is that while it's syncing it marks all articles in my history as unread, then adjusts it back again once the sync is finished. This was terrifying the first time it happened and I rushed to turn Airplane Mode on on my iPhone so I'd have some record of my actual unread articles. Even then, it's pretty disconcerting every time it happens, and I have to wait for 6000 articles to appear then disappear before I can start reading, which takes 5 minutes or so. I'll be going back to Reeder on Mac until the bugginess and strange syncing behaviour are fixed..MartinunderhillVersion: 1.0.5

Excellent App, High CPU UsageLire used to be one of my most prized apps. It's packed full of useful features. Above all, the ability to retrieve article content in full. Most RSS readers only retrieve the title, intro or other meta data and then clicking on the article takes you to a website with ads. This defeats the whole purpose of having an RSS reader. Lire allows you to export articles in ePub format. These two features combine to make this the best RSS app out there. Unfortunately, the app consumes so much CPU (e.g. ~30%) on macOS Monterey, the heat from resting my laptop (which has an efficient M1 Pro chip) on my laps is uncomfortable. I contacted the developer about this, but he stressed that 30% CPU was normal. He also made clear he has no intentions of introducing CPU efficiencies in upcoming releases. So, sadly, my usage of Lire is now limited to opening the app, retrieving articles, quickly exporting them as Epubs and then quickly closing the app. C'est la vie..PetelingoVersion: 2.1.8
