This extension auto-detects RSS feeds on the page you are reading and upon finding one will display an RSS icon in the Omnibox, allowing you to click on it to preview the feed content and subscribe using your favorite feed reader.

The extension comes with a few feed readers predefined (Newsblur, My Yahoo, Feedly, Inoreader, The Old Reader) but also allows you to add any web-based feed reader of your choice to the list.

ERTM Medias 2024-05-23: It was fine but under unknown reason stopped.
Jorge Calderon - Piano Enthusiast 2024-02-12: At first I thought this app was a scam since pressing the icon while on a site with a feed wasn’t getting me anything. None of the menu options let you obtain the URL of the page's RSS Feed. In order to enable it you need to the following: Click on the icon > “This can read and change site data” > “when you click the extension” Now to get the URL to the feed, just right-click on the provided hyperlink and select “Copy Link Address”. Now I can paste it into my Windows-based Feed Aggregator (QuiteRSS).
Falc 2024-01-20: Doesn't work fine. For many websites, the extention icon is colored/active, but no feed displayed when clicking on it
Paul Jackson 2023-09-09: Does the job, I'd prefer if it wouldn't redirect to the chrome-extension://... URL thought. Also, this causes a bug, I have a feed with images like <img src="//example.com/img.jpeg"> and they don't load, because the url scheme is missing and the extension page is chrome-extension://....

Anonymous 2023-09-04: Pessima! Permette solo di gestire feed con servizi esterni. Bad! Only allows you to manage feeds with external services.

Judy Ralston 2022-04-13: This isn't really a review as much as a question. I've had the RSS feed for years on IE as a drop down menu but I can't seem to get that on Chrome or Edge. I do not like the full page RSS and want my drop down back now that IE is no longer supported. Any ideas please.

El Chykon 2021-09-09: Для подписывания на фиды перекидывает на сторонние сайты-агрегаторы, где нужна всякая ненужная возня с регистрацией и прочим. Сделайте так, чтобы расширение сразу собирало информацию с лент без посредников, благо современные браузеры позволяют. Пока единица.
Sebastian Zangaro (sebzanga) 2021-08-08: No se puede ni seleccionar cada cuanto tiempo quiero que se actualice....
May aquarius 2021-07-07: 说是显示图标在地址栏，哪里有啊？地址栏里出了搜藏图标和傻缺一样的“创建二维码”之外就没有图标了啊。
Adam Hoier 2021-04-21: Doesn't seem to work in Google Chrome on my latest Chromebook update (actually never got it to work period.....) - there used to be an RSS icon in the address bar that would "auto detect" RSS feeeeds on the current page...? But it doesn't appear....

Gary Will 2020-12-18: Dec 2020: It's nearly 2021 and the description still says "upon finding one will display an RSS icon in the Omnibox." This hasn't been true for years -- Google's Chrome developers chose to break it, and the Google extension team is still pretending it works. Nov 2018: Had been great for years but now the icon is often orange even on pages with no feeds. That kills most of the value of the extension.

Dennis Bareis 2020-09-18: Its definitely not perfect and doesn't have feedly or Inoreader predefined but its also simple to add just add it yourself with the URL "http://cloud.feedly.com/#subscription%2Ffeed%2F%s" or "“https://www.inoreader.com/feed/%s". Bloglines doesn't seem to exist any more. This extension doesn't appear to be supported any more but it works well enough.
