About Hiwe
Take back control of your news. Hiwe is a privacy‑first RSS reader built by four independent people. It’s designed to let you create a personalised news feed without trackers, algorithms or ads. Choose from more our library of curated RSS sources spanning technology, sports, business, lifestyle and travel, or add any custom RSS link you like. Build a default feed in seconds or craft your own custom one. Hiwe never pushes content you didn’t ask for. Customize every part of your reading experience. Pick between light or dark themes, adjust font size and line spacing, and tune brightness so articles are comfortable to read at any time of day. Because Hiwe doesn’t track you or sell your data, you can stay up‑to‑date with your favourite blogs, magazines and news outlets without compromising your privacy or being nudged by opaque recommendation engines. Key Features - Complete control over your feed. Select topics and sources from our library of 100,000 RSS feeds or add custom URLs to follow any site you like. - No algorithms or trackers. Hiwe never collects usage data or reorders posts to serve you sponsored content. Every article appears in reverse‑chronological order so you see exactly what was published, and nothing else. - Ad‑free and free forever. There are no ads, no in‑app purchases and no hidden subscriptions. Hiwe is built as a hobby project by four friends who love RSS. We will try to keep upgrading the app by gathering the comments and feedbacks from our community. But, one thing we know for sure. Don’t expect anything related to AI any time soon. - Personalise your reading experience. Choose between light and dark themes, set your preferred font size, adjust line height and control brightness to make reading comfortable. - Default feed option. If you’re new to RSS or don’t know where to start, Hiwe can create a default feed for you based on popular categories. - Independent & community‑driven. Hiwe is built without investor funding, which means there is no revenue, reports we need to file and corporate stuff. Our main stakeholders are community. - Whether you follow a handful of niche blogs that rarely publish or dozens of daily news sites, Hiwe makes sure you never miss a post. Download Hiwe today to build your own private news feed and enjoy reading like it’s meant to be, just you and the stories you care about.
