A source posting forty times a week can fill your feed faster than another source that posts twice a week. This is useful to consider when you&#8217;re choosing between two sources that cover the same topic, and the correct choice depends on your preferences. For example, you might prefer a regularly updating blog for breaking news, while preferring slower updates for a hobby blog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Open Folders when a topic is new to you<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"599\" src=\"https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-8-1024x599.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2610\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-8-1024x599.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-8-300x176.png 300w, https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-8-768x449.png 768w, https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-8.png 1487w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If a topic is new to you, open the Folders tab or scroll below the Featured row on the All Sites tab. You&#8217;ll see ready-made topic folders grouped under professions and interests, listed alphabetically: such as Actor, Actuary, Accountant, Aerospace Engineer, and so on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each of them shows how many sources it covers and a View All button. This is a faster way to build out a new topic than searching for sources one at a time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Choose a folder as you follow each source<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"597\" src=\"https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-5-1024x597.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2607\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-5-1024x597.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-5-300x175.png 300w, https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-5-768x448.png 768w, https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-5.png 1187w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Every time you follow a source, you&#8217;ll be asked which folder to put it in.

If you don\u2019t, that\u2019s alright, because <em>Explore<\/em> works best when you&#8217;d rather browse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Open the <em>Explore<\/em> dropdown in the sidebar to find 5 lists: Recommended Podcasts, News Podcasts, Recommended Blogs, Recommended Magazines and Popular News Websites.

Import and Export With OPML<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Switching to FeedSpot Reader from another RSS reader? You can move your sources from your previous reader into FeedSpot Reader without having to add them one by one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FeedSpot Reader supports OPML files with up to 1,000 sources, so switching over takes a few clicks instead of a long, manual process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-7-1024x640.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2609\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-7-1024x640.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-7-300x188.png 300w, https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-7-768x480.png 768w, https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-7.png 1235w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Move sources between readers with OPML<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>OPML, short for Outline Processor Markup Language, is the standard file format RSS readers use to save and share sources. Most content readers can export one, which is why it&#8217;s the usual way to move between them. The file usually keeps your sources and the folders they were sorted into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Import your file from Account Settings > OPML<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Open <em>Account Settings<\/em> &gt; <em>OPML<\/em>, and under <em>Import OPML<\/em>, choose your current reader from the dropdown. You can choose from Newsblur, The Old Reader, Feedly, Inoreader, and Bloglovin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Click <em>Choose file<\/em> and pick your OPML or ZIP file (a Google Reader export, for example, comes as a ZIP like <em>youremail-takeout.zip<\/em>), then click <em>Upload<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Export a backup whenever you like<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The same page has an Export OPML section. Click <em>Download your FeedSpot OPML<\/em> to save everything you follow as a file. You can use this as a backup, or to share the RSS sources you are following in Feedspot with other applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. Reading Views<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you&#8217;re following a few sources, you&#8217;ll spend most of your time in the <em>All Post<\/em> tab. You can switch between four reading views to match how much detail you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Read everything in All Post<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><em>All Post<\/em>, at the top of the sidebar, is where everything you follow comes together. Each post shows a thumbnail, headline, source, author and how long ago it was published. Hovering over a post in List or Magazine view reveals a Schedule button (more about scheduling in Section 13). Open any post and arrows on either side let you move to the next or previous one without closing it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Across the top of the feed, you&#8217;ll find: a refresh button, the unread count, Mark all as read button, a gear icon for view and sort options, and a search box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clicking the dropdown on <em>Mark all as read<\/em> gives you these options: Everything, Older than one day, Older than two days, Older than three days, Older than a week, Older than 2 weeks. So, for example, you can clear everything from last week while still preserving recent posts as unread.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Switch between four views<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Click the gear icon next to <em>Mark all as read<\/em> to switch between four views, and sort the feed newest or oldest first from the same menu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"970\" height=\"521\" src=\"https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-14.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2616\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-14.png 970w, https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-14-300x161.png 300w, https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-14-768x413.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 970px) 100vw, 970px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>View<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>What you see<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Best for<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>List<\/td><td>A compact row per post: headline, source, time and a short excerpt<\/td><td>Clearing a busy feed fast<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Magazine<\/td><td>Thumbnails with headlines and excerpts<\/td><td>Everyday reading<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Expanded<\/td><td>Larger images and longer excerpts<\/td><td>Deciding what deserves a full read<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Card<\/td><td>A grid of image-first cards<\/td><td>Skimming visually<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>A simple routine: clear a busy feed in List view, then switch to Magazine to read properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Find what you opened in Recently Read<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Below <em>Following<\/em>, <em>Recently Read<\/em> tab keeps a list of what you&#8217;ve opened lately, so if something pulls you away mid-article, getting back to it takes just a click.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>5. Text Size and Fonts<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Under <em>Account Settings<\/em> &gt; <em>Appearance<\/em>, you can change:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Text size<\/strong>: Small, Medium (default), Large or Extra Large<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Font<\/strong>: 5 free options &#8211; Open Sans (default), Merriweather, Sans Serif, Noto Sans and OpenDyslexic (designed with dyslexia in mind)<br>5 more fonts on the Business plan &#8211; ITC Charter, Amasis, Ysobel, Iowan and Mundo Sans<br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>6.

RSS Tools and Brand Monitoring<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Merge feeds into one with RSS Combiner<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Look next to the breadcrumb above any feed, All Post, a folder, a pinboard, Favorited Posts, or one particular source, and you&#8217;ll find an <em>RSS<\/em> button. Clicking it opens the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/rsscombiner\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RSS Combiner<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Feedspot&#8217;s RSS Combiner takes multiple RSS feeds from different sources and creates a new combined version of all those feeds. It updates automatically. Use <em>Create New Combined RSS<\/em> to start one and <em>My Combined RSS Feeds<\/em> to find the ones you&#8217;ve made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An example use case: this is useful for gathering competitor blogs into one stream for a widget or another app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Build a feed for sites without RSS<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/rss-feed\/rss-builder\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RSS Builder<\/a> turns any webpage into an RSS feed. This is useful because many websites no longer provide RSS feeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paste the webpage URL and click <em>Generate RSS<\/em>, pick the section you want to track, then click <em>Save RSS<\/em> and give it a name. After that, FeedSpot crawls the website to extract the relevant content, and the feed appears in Generated Feeds and in your Reader, updating as new content is published.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It won&#8217;t work on JavaScript-heavy sites, pages without direct links, sites that block bots, or in Safari, which restricts the scripts it needs. For social profiles, use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/rss-feed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RSS Generator<\/a> instead, which builds feeds from Instagram, X, LinkedIn, Facebook, and other profile pages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Show your feed on your site with RSS Widgets<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>With <a href=\"https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/widget\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RSS Widgets<\/a>, you can embed and display the latest updates from your favorite sources (like blogs, podcasts, Youtube channels, RSS feeds, etc.) on your website. Click <em>Create New Widget<\/em>, then enter RSS feed URL, customize settings, and you\u2019re done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Track mentions with Brand Monitoring<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.feedspot.com\/brandmonitoring\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Brand Monitoring<\/a> is a saved search that runs automatically, so you don&#8217;t have to repeat it manually. Set it up for your brand, a competitor, a keyword or a topic, then check back to see what&#8217;s new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can search titles only or titles and descriptions, match all, any or an exact phrase. Advanced search supports filtering results by including or excluding title, description, custom text, author etc and over 50+ combinations, to get you the right custom result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>15. FeedSpot Pricing and Plans<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>FeedSpot Reader has two plans: Basic for reading on your own, and Business for teams and professionals who need more tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Compare prices for Basic and Business<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Plan<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Region<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Monthly<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Yearly<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Basic<\/td><td>Outside the US<\/td><td>$3.99<\/td><td>$39.90<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Basic<\/td><td>US<\/td><td>$7.99<\/td><td>$79.90<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Business<\/td><td>Worldwide<\/td><td>$9.99<\/td><td>$99.90<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Paying yearly works out to about two months free.

During a trial, <em>Switch Plan<\/em> changes your plan with no charge. After the trial, the same button reads <em>Change Plan<\/em> instead. Upgrading charges the price difference right away, and downgrading takes effect at your next billing period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To cancel, use the cancel option on the same page. Cancel during the trial and you won&#8217;t be charged. Cancel after it, and you keep access until the end of the period you&#8217;ve already paid for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pay with Stripe or PayPal<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>FeedSpot accepts Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover and PayPal. You&#8217;re billed once a year or once a month depending on your plan, and you get an emailed receipt for every charge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Start with a 7-day free trial<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Your card isn&#8217;t charged until the trial ends. This gives you a week to follow a few sources and see which plan fits how you read.
