Comments on TheFeed: Private Feeds+Chat for Android

★★★★★ Saman Koosha · Oct 18, 2026
During Iran’s internet shutdowns and censorship, this app was a reliable friend and a true companion in hard times, helping us access Telegram channels and important news. Thank you to the developers for creating such a valuable tool when we needed it most. I hope you continue improving its speed, stability, and security. Your efforts truly make a difference and help people stay connected to the world. ❤️🙏
★★★★★ mohsen mohammadi · Sep 27, 2026
Over the past three months of severe internet disruptions and restrictions, The Feed has been incredibly helpful. It allowed us to stay connected to the outside world and keep up with news and information when access to many other sources was difficult or unavailable. A huge thank you to the entire The Feed team for their hard work, dedication, and for keeping the service running when people needed it most. ❤️🙏 Keep up the great work! 👏

Description by Holistic Resilience Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
TheFeed is a lightweight reader and private messenger that works over plain DNS,
so it keeps working on networks where almost everything else is blocked.

Follow public Telegram channels and public X (Twitter) accounts in one clean,
fast feed. Read posts, view photos and media, and get a new-message badge per
channel — all delivered as ordinary encrypted DNS traffic that blends in with
normal network activity.

WHAT YOU CAN DO
• Feed — follow Telegram channels and public X accounts, grouped and easy to scan.
• Mirror — a read-only, web-style view of a channel with stable image and album layout.
• Messenger — send end-to-end encrypted messages to other users. Only the two of
you can read them; delivery is confirmed with matching safety emojis on both devices.
• Saved — keep private, locally encrypted notes and bookmarks.
• Resolvers — a shared, self-healing pool of DNS servers, with a built-in scanner
to find more when your usual ones stop working.

PRIVACY BY DESIGN
• End-to-end encryption for messages (X25519, Ed25519, AES-256-GCM).
• All traffic is encrypted and rides standard DNS, with random padding so message
sizes cannot be fingerprinted.
• No account, no phone number, no email. Your messaging identity is generated on
your device from a recovery code you control.
• The app runs on your own device and connects only to the servers in the config
you use. Messages are end-to-end encrypted, so no server that relays them — nor
anyone else — can read their contents.

WORKS WHERE OTHER APPS DON'T
When conventional connections are throttled or filtered, DNS usually still gets
through. TheFeed uses that narrow path to deliver feeds and messages, and adapts
automatically by scoring resolvers on speed and reliability.

OPEN AND SELF-HOSTABLE
TheFeed is open source. Anyone can run a server outside the filtered network and
share a config with friends and family. Import a config, or paste a domain and
passphrase, and you are reading in seconds.

Free. Open source. No ads. No tracking.
