Real Push.
Most RSS apps check for updates when iOS allows it — maybe once an hour, maybe less. Simple RSS+ is different. Our servers monitor your feeds 24/7 and push notifications to your device the moment new content is published. The app doesn't even need to be open.
You Subscribe
Add any RSS or Atom feed to Simple RSS+.
Our Servers Watch
We monitor your feeds around the clock for new articles.
You Get Notified Instantly
A real push notification arrives on your device within moments of publication.
| Other RSS Apps | Simple RSS+ |
|---|---|
| Background refresh — iOS decides when | Server-side monitoring — instant delivery |
| Only works if the app ran recently | Works even if the app hasn't been opened in days |
| Unreliable timing — minutes to hours late | Real-time — articles arrive as they're published |
| Often requires a subscription | One-time purchase — pay once, keep forever |
15 years of real-time RSS delivery. No other iOS RSS app does this.
