Fanfold: News as Magazines

Unfold, flip through, fold shut.

Fanfold turns your RSS and Atom feeds into printed magazines, in the spirit of a DIY zine. Every source hangs on your wall as its own little magazine with a masthead, photos and a cover. Open one and it reads like paper: a double page on the big screen of the iPhone Duo, a single page on any other iPhone. Turning the page curls the paper, sometimes with a misprint.

WHAT'S INSIDE • The wall: all your magazines at a glance, each with today's lead story as a pasted-in print. • Real pages: articles set in a calm serif with drop caps and chapter titles, photos as halftone prints or in full colour – your choice. • The cover: folded shut, the iPhone Duo shows the masthead and the lead photo of your newest issue. • Newsstand: 59 hand-picked sources in eight sections – the big Apple blogs, world news, tech, science, culture and design. One tap and it hangs on your wall. • Just type the website: enter a site name or paste any article link – Fanfold finds the feeds by itself. Or share a link from Safari straight to Fanfold. • Read aloud: let your iPhone read an article to you, on device. • Offline: issues are kept on your device, so you can read on the train without signal. • Bookmarks and reading position: pick up exactly where you stopped.

PRIVACY No ads, no tracking, no analytics, no account. Nothing leaves your device except the requests to the feeds you read.

ONE PRICE, FOR LIFE Pay once, keep it. No subscription – not now, not later.
