See what changed after an article was published
Headlines get rewritten, figures get corrected and stories grow after you have read them. Inoreader keeps every version of an article it receives, so you can see what changed and read the article as it was first published.
See pricing- FreeEvery plan shows which articles were edited and when, and Free accounts can open the edits of three articles a week.
- ProPro, Team and Custom plans show every edit of every article, with no limit.
See every change to the title and the text
When a publisher edits an article after publishing it, Inoreader keeps the earlier version. You can come back to the article later and see exactly what is different.
The Edited mark
When a publisher changes an article, Inoreader shows an Edited mark with the time of the last edit next to the publication time. Click the mark to see how many edits Inoreader recorded and when each one was made.
Highlighted changes
When you open an edit, Inoreader marks the words that changed in the title and the text. Added text is green, and removed text is red and struck through.
The version selector
Use the version selector to move from one edit to the next. Choose Published to read the article as it first appeared, or choose All to see every change since publication at once.
Edit detection
Inoreader ignores changes that you cannot see as a reader, such as view counters, rotating ads and tracking links. You see the Edited mark only when the text itself has changed.

Frequently asked questions
How does Inoreader know that an article was edited?
Inoreader checks every feed regularly. When a publisher changes an article in its feed, Inoreader keeps the previous version and compares the two. Inoreader ignores changes that are not edits, such as view counters, rotating ads and tracking links.
Do I need to turn anything on?
No. Inoreader records the edits of every feed on its own, so the history is already there when you open an article, including articles you received before you upgraded to Pro.
How many versions does Inoreader keep?
Inoreader keeps up to 20 edits of an article, and the version as it was first published is always kept. Articles received before October 2026 have no edit history.
Does the history show changes made on the publisher's website?
Inoreader compares the article as the feed delivers it. If a feed carries only a summary of each article, the history shows the edits of that summary.
What happens to my highlights when an article is edited?
Your highlights stay where you put them, because Inoreader keeps your copy of the text you marked. If the publisher edits the article after you highlight it, a bar above the article tells you so. Click the bar to see what changed since you made your highlights. You see the same bar on an article you translated or loaded in full.
