RSS & News Feeds

Following feeds in Tree Launcher

Tree Launcher can pull articles from news sites and blogs into a page, so your reading lives alongside your apps and notes. There are two ways to add a feed:

• News — a free, ready-made feed powered by Google News.
• RSS — a Pro collection of custom or searched feeds.

Adding a News feed (free)

The News item creates a single Google News feed.

1. Enter Edit Mode and tap +.
2. Choose News.
3. On the Add News Feed sheet, pick a Country, Language, and optional Category (Technology, Business, Sports, and more).
4. Tap the send arrow to add it.

The feed is sourced from Google News, so it follows the top stories for the region, language, and category you choose. To change it later, open the item in Edit Mode and adjust the same options.

Adding RSS feeds (Pro)

The RSS item creates a collection that can hold one or more feeds.

1. In Edit Mode, tap + and choose RSS.
2. Give the collection a name.
3. Add feeds in one of two ways:
4. Search the curated list of popular publishers and pick one.
5. Paste a custom feed URL for any site that publishes RSS.

When you search, each result shows the publisher (for example, The Economist for a feed titled "Science & technology") so you always know the source.

Managing the feeds in a collection

Open the collection and use Manage Feeds (or tap-and-hold) to add, rename, or remove individual feeds.

Reading articles

Tap a feed or collection to open the reader. Tap any article to open it in your browser. Feed contents are cached briefly, so reopening a feed is fast and avoids hammering the source.

Notes & limits

• Some sites rate-limit or block automated feed requests. If a feed shows an error such as "Too many requests" or "No internet connection," it usually clears on its own after a short wait.
• Not every site offers RSS. If a custom URL doesn't load, confirm the site publishes a feed (often at a /feed or /rss address).
