Frequently asked questions

Is CMRSS free?

Every feature is free with up to 5 feeds. A single one-time $9.99 in-app purchase unlocks unlimited feeds — there's no subscription.

What do I need to run it?

CMRSS requires macOS 26, iOS 26, or iPadOS 26 (or later).

Do the AI summaries need anything special?

AI article summaries are generated on-device with Apple Intelligence, so they require a device that supports it. CMRSS detects availability automatically and hides the option on unsupported devices.

How does syncing work?

Your feeds, folders, and read/unread state sync automatically through your own iCloud account — set up once and pick up exactly where you left off on any device.

Is my data private?

Yes. Sync runs through your own iCloud account, and AI summaries are generated entirely on-device. No third-party servers, no tracking — your reading is yours.

Is there a Setapp version?

Yes — CMRSS is available as part of your Setapp subscription on Mac, iPhone and iPad, with unlimited feeds included. If you're already a Setapp member, just install it from Setapp.
