Switch from Feeder on Android to Feedwright on iPhone and iPad
You are moving from Android to iPhone or iPad and want to keep reading the way you did with Feeder: no account, everything on the device. You take your subscriptions along as an OPML file, and Feedwright carries on reading them.
How do I take my subscriptions from Feeder?
- Open Feeder on your Android device.
- Tap the three dots at the top right (Open menu).
- Tap Export feeds to OPML.
- Pick a location, for example Google Drive, or email the file to yourself.
How do I get the file onto iPhone or iPad?
Most easily through a cloud storage you use on both devices, or as an attachment in an email to yourself. On iPhone or iPad, save it to the Files app.
How do I open the file in Feedwright?
Share the file to Feedwright from the Files app, or tap + in Feedwright and, at the very bottom, Import from another app. Feedwright shows the categories in the file. Untick what you don't need and tap Take Over. Feedwright then fetches the first articles and lists the feeds that no longer answer, with a suggestion for each.
What comes over from Feeder?
All your feeds, along with your Feeder tags, which become categories in Feedwright. Feedwright recognises subreddits and YouTube channels by their address.
Does Feedwright work like Feeder?
In the ways that matter to you, yes: Feedwright needs no account, your device fetches the feeds itself, and articles appear in the order they were published. Between iPhone and iPad your subscriptions sync through your own iCloud.
What does Feedwright add?
You can follow sites without a feed, see Follow any website. Pages with no articles at all you keep an eye on for changes, see Monitor websites for changes.
How many feeds can I bring?
The app includes 15 sources. With Feedwright Plus all your feeds come along.
