Feed Compass is a macOS application that makes it easier to find and subscribe to RSS Feeds in your favorite RSS Reader. It is a companion app to an RSS Reader so you will want one of those to get the most from Feed Compass.

There are lots of Mac RSS Readers available in the Mac App Store. If you are looking for a good, free RSS Reader we recommend NetNewsWire.

Many thanks to Brent Simmons for the coming up with the idea for this program. We would also like to thank him for open sourcing the many libraries of his we use.

We would also like to thank the creators of the OPML files utilized by Feed Compass. This program would be nothing without their work curating the OMPL blog listings.
