Sync when you choose.

Good to know
A few details,
before you dive in.
Free core reading, practical tools, and clear choices about the extras.
Need a hand? Get supportIs Gather free?
Yes. Core reading, search, OPML, export, offline tools, and on-device features are free. An optional one-time purchase removes Gather’s in-feed sponsored cards. The price is shown in your app store before you buy; it can vary by region. Optional tips and support purchases are also available where supported.
What can I follow?
Publications and blogs with RSS feeds, plus supported YouTube channels, subreddits, Bluesky and Mastodon accounts, and newsletters. Discover helps you find sources; you can also add a feed or import an OPML file.
Can I read every full article?
Gather uses feed content first and prepares a clean reading view when it can. Publisher sites, paywalls, and JavaScript-heavy pages can limit extraction. A retry and the publisher’s live page remain available. Removing Gather’s ads does not remove ads on publisher pages.
Do I need to use AI or cloud services?
No. Follow feeds and read articles without enabling summaries or sync. Cloud summaries are off until you explicitly allow them. When enabled, article titles and text are sent through CodeNest’s Cloudflare service and OpenRouter to an AI provider. You can turn them off in Settings.
Can I sync between iOS and Android?
iCloud sync works between your iOS devices; Google Drive sync works between your Android devices. These services do not sync across platforms. You can transfer subscriptions with OPML or use Gather’s backup tools.
