Quill is a calm desktop RSS reader. Follow the sites you actually care about, read them without ads or clutter, and keep every subscription on your own computer.
No feed algorithm, no engagement metrics — just the writing you chose to follow, arranged the way you want it.
Paste a website address and Quill finds its feed. Most sites still publish one even when they no longer advertise it, so you can follow far more of the web than you would expect.
A three-pane layout with a distraction-free focus mode. Choose your typeface, text size and line spacing, and the reading view stays exactly as you set it.
Many sites publish only a one-paragraph teaser. Quill pulls in the complete article text so you can read the whole piece in place.
Group subscriptions, save pieces for later, and let rules tag, save or mark articles read automatically as they arrive.
Full-text search across your whole library, with recent searches kept close at hand. If you read it in Quill, you can find it again.
Your subscriptions and reading history live in a single file on your own computer. No account, no cloud sync, no analytics.
From a blank library to your own front page in a couple of minutes.
Paste an address and Quill finds the feed, browse the built-in Discover list, or import an OPML file from your previous reader.
Sort subscriptions into folders, tag what matters, and set rules that quietly handle new articles the way you would.
Quill refreshes in the background on your schedule and can let you know when something new arrives.
The things people usually want to know first.
No. Your subscriptions, articles and reading history are stored in a single file on your own computer. Quill has no analytics and no cloud sync, and it connects to nothing except the feeds you asked it to follow.
No. There is no sign-up, no email address and no login. Install Quill, add a few feeds and start reading.
Yes. Quill imports OPML files, which is the standard format every major reader exports. You can also export your list from Quill at any time — it is your list, and you can take it with you.
Paste the site address anyway. Many sites still publish a feed without linking to it, and Quill will look for one. If nothing is published, that site cannot be followed by any RSS reader.
Yes. When a feed carries only a short excerpt, Quill can fetch the full article text so you read the complete piece inside the app instead of being sent out to a browser.
Everything you have already fetched stays readable offline. A connection is only needed to pick up new articles.
