ReadKit

The king of aggregators. $14.99 | READKITAPP.COM

Between Instapaper, Pocket, Pinboard, and a variety of RSS sources, Mac users can wind up bouncing between multiple applications to get caught up with news subscriptions. ReadKit unites these disparate services under the same roof, providing a single destination for all your news.

In addition to those services, ReadKit includes its own offline RSS engine for new or imported OPML feeds, but also syncs with popular providers Feedly, Fever, NewsBlur, Feed Wrangler and Feedbin. Some need a premium subscription to work, but free accounts are often all right.

The beauty of having everything under one roof is that you can drag and drop articles, bookmarks or feed stories between different services with ease. Feeds are grouped by account in a sidebar, with a unified Smart Folders inbox that sorts unread content into predefined categories of your own choosing. There’s complete customisation over everything, including the toolbar buttons, font style and page width. There are four light/ dark colour themes and full articles can be read in a clean, text-only view.

This may be the one Mac reader to rule them all — but where’s the iOS version?
