NewsTap is a powerful Usenet Newsreader for the iPad, iPhone and the iPod Touch.

Photos and pictures can be displayed directly. It's possible to add photos into the photo album or open them in other Apps. - Quotes are displayed in different colors. Colors are also used to distinguish between read and unread articles, filtered articles. - Hyperlinks are automatically detected and can be opened in a web browser. - Optimized article layout for the small iPhone display. The original article layout is also available. - Navigate within the articles from within the thread view or simply by flipping to the next/previous article with your finger. - A graphical „tree view“ visualizes a complete discussion and makes it super-easy to follow and participate discussions. - It's possible to hide articles that are already read and to hide quotes. - Sync the read/unread states of the articles using a „newsrc“ file with other usenet client. The sync can be done via SFTP, WebDAV, Dropbox and iCloud. - Post new articles or send followups. - Build-in help, which explains all the application features.
