How to install Inoreader as a PWA
Frequently asked questions about Inoreader
What makes Inoreader different from Feedly?
Inoreader's rules engine is more flexible: you can define triggers (keyword match, sentiment, source) and actions (tag, send to webhook, email digest) at a level Feedly's free tier does not allow. Inoreader also natively monitors more source types out of the box, including Twitter/X accounts, YouTube channels and newsletters. Feedly's UI is slightly cleaner and its AI summarisation (Leo) has matured fast in 2024-2025. Power researchers tend to prefer Inoreader; casual readers often prefer Feedly.
Is Inoreader free?
Inoreader's free tier supports 150 feeds with basic features, which is enough for most personal RSS use. Paid tiers: Pro ($9.99/month or $99/year) unlocks unlimited feeds, full-text search across all history, more rules, IFTTT and Zapier integrations, offline mobile reading and team features. Business and team plans add multi-user accounts. The free tier has ads; paid removes them.
How does Inoreader compare to Reeder or NetNewsWire?
Reeder and NetNewsWire are native Apple-only RSS clients — beautifully designed, but you bring your own backend (iCloud, Feedbin, Inoreader). Inoreader is a full backend plus web/mobile clients in one. Many users pair Reeder on iPhone/Mac with Inoreader as the sync backend, getting the best of both: Reeder's UI and Inoreader's power features. For non-Apple users or those who prefer a single platform, Inoreader's PWA is sufficient.
Does Inoreader work offline?
Yes — Inoreader's mobile app and PWA cache articles for offline reading, which is a standard requirement for commuters and field researchers. The free tier limits offline depth; the Pro tier caches more aggressively. Articles already loaded into the PWA stay readable when the network drops, and new articles sync when reconnected.
Is Inoreader used by professional researchers?
Inoreader is a staple in OSINT, competitive-intelligence and journalism workflows. Public testimonials cite use at large media organisations and consulting teams for monitoring competitor blogs, regulatory feeds and social-media signals. Its rules engine (auto-tag, auto-forward to Slack, auto-email digest) is the main reason research teams pick it over Feedly. The Business tier is targeted at small intelligence and PR teams.
Where Inoreader is heading (12-24 months)
- →Stronger AI summarisation and clustering (Feedly's Leo is currently ahead) is the obvious roadmap bet.
- →Native podcast support to compete with Overcast and Pocket Casts in the all-in-one-reader category.
- →First-class developer-API tier for OSINT and intelligence teams building custom dashboards.
