Yana keeps all your reading in one place, on your phone, and nowhere else.

Most feed readers stop at RSS. Yana goes further. It comes with ready made aggregators for sites that never offered a proper feed, so you can follow YouTube channels, Reddit communities, podcasts, and a growing list of hand tuned sources like heise, Tagesschau, Merkur, MeinMMO, Caschys Blog, MacTechNews, and more. You point Yana at what you want to read and it does the fetching, parsing, and cleanup for you. Missing a site you love? The list of built in sources grows from what people actually ask for, so drop it on our issue board and we will look at adding it.

Everything you follow gets turned into one consistent article format. A tweet, a Reddit thread, a long news piece, and a YouTube video all end up looking and reading the same way. That single format is also why Yana feels fast. There is no web view spinning up in the background and no messy page trying to render. Articles open instantly, scroll smoothly, and behave like they belong to the app, because they do. Open the app and you land straight in your timeline, right where you stopped last time. No home screen to get through, no menu to tap, just your next article.

Because Yana stores the finished article, not just a link, the full text and the images are already on your phone. Open something on the train, in a plane, or with no signal at all and it is right there. No loading spinner, no blank page, no waiting for a slow site to answer.

Yana can also help you read smarter. Turn on the built in Apple Intelligence for summaries, translation, and cleanup that runs entirely on device. Prefer another provider? Bring your own key. Yana works with OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Mistral, Qwen, and DeepSeek, so you decide which model touches your articles and what it costs you. Ask for a short summary before you commit to a long read, translate a piece into your language, or strip a cluttered article down to the words that matter.

Rather listen than read? Yana can read any article out loud, in a voice that matches the language the piece is written in, so a German article is read by a German voice. Start it, put the phone in your pocket, and keep going from the lock screen while you walk, drive, or do the dishes.

Organize the way you think. Tag your feeds, then filter your timeline by tag with a tap. Star anything worth keeping and it stays safe from cleanup. Your whole library shows up as one endless stream ordered by when it arrived, and Yana remembers exactly where you left off, every single time.

A few more things worth knowing:

Yana is free and open source. You can read every line of code, see exactly what the app does with your data, and follow along or pitch in. The issue board is open too, so if you want a new source added or hit a bug, that is where to say so. You will find the link right inside Settings and on our page at github.com/fa-krug/yana.
