See it in motion

Your quiet feed, in action.

Your sources, newest first, a clean reader underneath, and audio when you'd rather listen. Here's a real look at Hushread on the phone. Swipe an article to see its AI summary, completely optional though.

01 / Features

A reader for your whole day.

Every part of Hushread reduces the friction between finding something and actually understanding it.

Always watching

It checks, so you don't.

Our servers keep polling every source you follow, around the clock. A post published at 3am is waiting at breakfast, or pinging your phone the moment it lands.

Audio

Listen, don't just read.

Turn your briefing into natural-sounding audio for the commute, the gym, or resting your eyes.

Notifications

The moment it's published.

The backend spots new posts within minutes and pushes a notification, with per-feed control, so only sources you truly care about ping you.

Topics

Topics, not feeds.

Skip the RSS hunt. Name a topic and get every new article about it, automatically.

Beyond RSS

Facebook, Reddit & YouTube.

Follow Facebook pages, subreddits and YouTube channels natively, like any other source. Few readers can.

Everywhere

Android, iOS and web.

Catch up wherever you are: phone, tablet or browser. Everything stays in sync, so you never miss.

Reader

Distraction-free, day or night.

A quiet full-article view with light and dark themes, adjustable type, and pre-fetched articles that open instantly. Just you and the words.

02 / Why Hushread

Built for focused reading.

Most news apps are built to keep you scrolling. Hushread is built to get you informed and out.

Distraction-free by design

No ads, no infinite feed games. Your feed has an end, and full articles stay clean and quiet.

Chronological, not algorithmic

You choose the sources; newest stories come first. No black box deciding what you see.

Private by default

Your reading stays yours. No invasive tracking, no selling your attention to the highest bidder.

Fast and offline-ready

Articles are pre-fetched in advance, so they open instantly, even when your signal drops.

"The thing that always bothered me about RSS: someone I care about publishes something, and I won't know until I remember to check my reader. So I built one that keeps checking while I sleep. No algorithm, no engagement tricks. Just the people you follow, the moment they publish."
