A feed you set up once and glance at all day
It opens next to the page you're on, so checking the news doesn't cost you a tab or your place.
See what's new since you last looked
New stories are checked for in the background. A red dot by the name means something new arrived, and an "Earlier" line marks where you left off.
Save stories for later
Bookmark an article and it stays in your Saved list, even after it drops out of the feed.
Search, or narrow to one section
Press / to search. Tap a section to see only tech, only sports, or whatever you follow. Light and dark mode follow your system.

How it stays free
LiveNewsOnline shows personalized offers. Occasionally, after you click on a website, a sponsored page opens in a new tab. It's marked with the LiveNewsOnline icon so you know where it came from.
The extension uses the address and title of the page you’re viewing to select relevant offers. Occasionally, clicking a link may open a sponsored page in a new tab.
Offers are on by default, and you can turn them off during setup or anytime in Settings. With offers off, nothing about the pages you visit is sent anywhere.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does it ask to read data on all websites?
Two reasons. The feed loads articles and source logos from news sites, and personalized offers need the address and title of the page you're on.
It reads the address and title only, never what you type or the contents of the page. With offers off, page addresses and titles aren't sent anywhere.
Where are my sources and saved articles kept?
In your browser, using its extension storage. There's no account to create and nothing to sign in to. Removing the extension removes them.
How often does the feed update?
It checks for new articles regularly while your browser is running, so the red dot is there when you open the panel. Opening the panel always loads the latest.
How do I turn off personalized offers?
Open the side panel, choose Settings (the sliders icon at the top), and switch off Personalized offers. The change takes effect immediately.
Which browsers does it work in?
Microsoft Edge, version 116 or newer. It's available for Edge only for now.
