Read You is an Android RSS reader presented in Material You style.
The tool addresses the need for a modern RSS reading experience on Android by building a native application that adheres to Material Design 3 principles. It allows users to subscribe to RSS feeds, import and export OPML files for feed management, and receive notifications when new articles arrive. The reader includes article readability optimization and full content parsing for original articles, enabling users to read feeds directly within the app rather than being redirected to external websites. The application supports multiple accounts and includes a read-aloud feature for audio consumption of articles.
Read You suits developers and users seeking a Material You-compliant RSS reader for Android. The project integrates with several third-party RSS service APIs including Fever, Google Reader, and FreshRSS, allowing users to sync their existing cloud-based feed accounts. This makes it particularly valuable for those already invested in these services who want a native Android client that respects their existing data infrastructure. The tool is distributed through F-Droid, making it accessible to users prioritizing open-source software.
The project maintains active development with regular commits and engagement through community channels. The team maintains design documentation in a shared Figma file, indicating structured collaboration on the user interface. The project roadmap includes planned features such as Android widgets and additional service integrations, showing forward momentum beyond the current feature set.
