About this app

A privacy-first Newsreader and Podcast player for the Miniflux backend (https://miniflux.app) 2.0.29+.
This newsreader sync with the miniflux server api.

Features:

Master Your Feed with Ease
• Offline-Ready: Unlike a browser, Flux News stores your articles locally. Sync your feeds once and read them anywhere, on the plane, in the subway, or in remote areas without an internet connection.
• Intuitive Gesture Control: Navigate your news with natural swipe gestures. Quickly triage your articles, mark them as read, or save them for later with a simple flick of your finger.
• Effortless "Scroll-to-Read": Experience a friction-free "inbox zero" workflow. Articles are automatically marked as read as you scroll over them, so you never have to manually clear your queue again.
• Deep System Integration: Share interesting finds instantly using the System Share Sheet or send articles directly to your configured third-party services.
• Direct App Linking: Open articles directly in their respective installed apps for a cohesive experience that feels right at home on your device.

Podcast Excellence (New!)
• Integrated Player: High-performance playback with variable speed control.
• Smart Management: Automatic download of new episodes and automatic deletion after listening to save space.
• Advanced Audio Features: Full chapter recognition for easy navigation and a built-in sleep timer.
• Backend Sync: Your playback progress is synchronized with Miniflux, so you never lose your spot.
• Dedicated Downloads View: Manage all your offline audio content in one place.

On the Road (New!)
• CarPlay: A safe, audio-centric interface for your vehicle's dashboard.
• Seamless Integration: Access your downloaded podcasts and control playback safely while driving.

Tailored for Your Device
• OLED-Optimized Design: Choose between Light, Dark, and a specialized True Black mode designed specifically to save battery and look stunning on high-end displays.
• Precision Filtering & Search: Instantly sort through your content by status (Unread, Read, Starred), category, or individual feeds. Use the powerful search to query your entire Miniflux backend in seconds.
• Quick Access to Discussions: Open article comments directly within the app to stay on top of the conversation.

Privacy by Design
Your data belongs to you. Flux News acts as a transparent window to your own server.
• Direct Sync: The app communicates directly with your Miniflux API.
• No Third-Party Tracking: We do not collect, store, or analyze your reading habits.
• No Middlemen: Your credentials and content never pass through any external servers other than your own.

Please Note: This app requires an existing Miniflux server instance or a Miniflux Cloud account.
