How to Subscribe

There are several ways to add feeds to Feedbin.

Browser Extension

There’s a browser extension that gives you the ability to subscribe to feeds, save pages to read later, and create email addresses for subscribing to newsletters. You can use the extension in these browsers:

  • Safari - Works on iOS, macOS, and iPadOS.
  • Chrome - Which is also where you should go if you’re using a Chromium based browser like Edge, Arc, Brave, etc…
  • Firefox

OPML Import

If you’re coming to Feedbin from another RSS reader, chances are that reader allows you to export a list of your subscriptions in a format called OPML. Feedbin can read OPML files to enable you to quickly import all of your subscriptions.

You can access the import page under Settings -> Import/Export

Subscribe Form

The main Feedbin interface includes a button to subscribe. You can enter either the URL of the website i.e. http://blog.feedbin.com OR the URL of the feed i.e. http://blog.feedbin.com/atom.xml. You can also search for a feed by name or author.

The full URL to the feed is required if the website does not link to its RSS feed in a way that Feedbin can find it.

URL

Feedbin supports a special URL you can use to subscribe to a feed. This is useful if you want to be able to programmatically subscribe to a feed, for example through a bookmarklet.

The URL is:

https://feedbin.com/?subscribe=%s

The %s part is a placeholder where the url of the feed or website would go.
