Read RSS feeds on a Wear OS watch
A watch does not replace a reading screen, but it fixes one thing phones handle badly: seeing what just came out without taking the phone out, and therefore without opening the door to everything else.
An app, not a notification relay
Feedrion's Wear OS app is not a notification mirror. It has its own article list, its own reader, its own settings, and the read/unread state it shares with your other devices.
Your spoiler terms apply there too: a score hidden on the phone stays hidden on the wrist, with nothing to set up again.
Signed in from the phone
Typing a password on a watch is a trial. Feedrion sidesteps it: the session moves from the phone to the watch over the link between the two devices, after you explicitly agree. You sign in once, on the phone.
It is also why the watch app and the phone app share the same package name: that is Wear OS's own condition for the handoff to be possible at all.
Offline on the wrist as well
The watch keeps its articles locally: checking the list on a run, with no phone within reach, works. Keyword alerts and notification settings are there too.
Installing on the watch
- Install Feedrion on your Android phone and sign in.
- Install the Feedrion app on the paired Wear OS watch.
- Open it: it asks permission to pick up the phone's session.
- Accept on the phone — the watch is signed in, with no password typed on the wrist.
The subscription follows the account: there is nothing separate to buy for the watch.
Free, no credit card.
Install the Android app
The app is in closed testing on Google Play, so installing it takes two steps.
