RSS feeds bring new posts from the blogs, news sites and video channels you follow into Yardmaster. Each new post shows up in your Inbox and under RSS Feeds, where you can read it in full.

Add a feed#

  1. Open Settings > Channels and expand RSS Feeds.

  2. Turn on RSS Integration.

  3. Paste the feed's address into the box and click Add Feed. Yardmaster checks it first and says Valid feed.

  4. Click RSS Feeds in the projects column to read.

Most sites have a feed address; it often ends in /feed, /rss or .xml. Yardmaster only reads feeds from the public internet; addresses on your own network are refused.

Manage your feeds#

Your feeds are listed under Subscribed Feeds, each with its status (Healthy, Error fetching feed or Never fetched).

  • Edit a feed to rename it or change its Refresh interval, how often Yardmaster checks it (every 5 to 1440 minutes).

  • Refresh one feed, or Refresh All, to check right now.

  • Remove a feed. This permanently deletes every post saved from it.

Yardmaster checks your feeds by itself, on each feed's schedule, while the app is open. That is free; it only downloads the feed.

Keep articles for decides how long posts are kept (30d, 90d, 6mo, 1yr or 2yr; 90 days at first). Older posts are deleted for good.

Get a morning briefing#

Turn on Daily Digest in the same card for one short AI briefing a day that picks out the posts most likely to matter to you. Set Delivery Time (7:00 at first) and, under Your Interests, a few topics such as "privacy, startups". Generate Now makes one straight away, and Recent Digests lists the last ones. Each briefing arrives as its own Inbox row, separate from the posts.
