Frequently Asked Questions





Why does this app have a strange name? What does 'lire' even mean?

The name: 'lire' is french for the verb 'read'. In case you're curious, here is how it's pronounced.




What sync service are supported?

Support for Feedly, Feedbin, Feed Wrangler, FeedHQ, The Old Reader, Inoreader, Newsblur, BazQux Reader, FreshRSS, Miniflux, Nextcloud News, and Tiny Tiny RSS is currently included.




Will you add support for [X Feed Syncing Service]?

Adding support for more services is definitely on the roadmap, but I can't promise yet which and when.




Will you add support for iCloud syncing?

As of version 5.0 (on iOS & iPadOS), and version 2.0 (on macOS) of lire, support for syncing with iCloud is/will-be included.




I do not want to use a third-party sync service, can I still use lire to follow RSS feeds?

Yes, if you do not want to use a third-party sync service, you can use lire in Standalone mode (without syncing).




Will you add support for Readability/Mercury to read full articles without opening them on the web?

lire has it's own full-text engine, which means lire does not need Readability or Mercury to read full articles without opening them on the web. It can not only open full-text of articles online to read, it even has the ability to download full-text beforehand, and save them in cache to read at a later time.
