Reeder 3 App Reviews

Bland and no updates in a year

When looking at the feed list of articles it makes my phone look like a washed out black and white tv. Actually a brown and white tv. Also, took a year between updates. Sync gets slower with time. It would be nice if this program had an option for a more colorful interface.

Awesome!

Beautiful new design, very clean and simple to use as always. Keeps the tittle of the best RSS reader for the iPhone. Keep up the great work!

Theres always a "but"..

Great app. But I dislike the movement of the "mark all as read" button - since the space is free Id love the option to have it back on the left... Its a little thing - still a great app though.

Keyboard Shortcuts please!

Please add keyboard shortcuts! These are an especially sore omission on the iPad Pro, where keyboard shortcuts make the entire OS really "just work." Things like using the arrow keys to select articles, Command-R to refresh, a shortcut to mark all as read, another to open the share menu (whereupon arrow keys could be used to select the sharing option), etc. Thank you! :)

Poor button placement.

Need option for placement of the "mark as read" button back to the bottom left side as in previous versions or a "mark read on scroll" option. Not currently functional for left-handed use on the iPhone 6 plus.

Crushes ALL THE TIME

IPhone 5S iOS 9.1: it is so frustrating that the app crushes all the time after last update. It actually crushes so many times that I took time to use App Stores troublesome review system to give it a bad review!

Where is Reeder 1

Have to say, not happy about the fact that Reeder 1 is no my available in any way at all. 2 was pretty bad, and 3 is not as bad, but still nothing compared to 1. Why does the article headline view have such smaller font? Why is it black on white now instead of gray? Its like you wanted to make it harder to read, which when youre reading on a bus, is a pain. Disappointed. Please bring back Reeder 1. Best news/blog reader out there by far (or was).

List view only?

First off, I love this app. I use it daily. Its one of the few customizable news regrets that offer wonderful design as well as functionality in a holly matrimony. The fact that it downloads the articles for offline use is amazing. My only gripe is the limited viewing options for the actual article list. It seems theres only a list view which is disappointing. I wish more could be offered there perhaps a magazine view or the few that feedly offers, though this is still a much better app than that. Otherwise, thanks for this wonderful app.

Crashes. No response from support

Lots of crashes browsing and reading articles. Tried uninstalling and still crashes. Tried contacting for support via email and no response weeks later.

Please allow us to move the Mark as Read button

I love Reeder and have used it for years through all versions. I dont understand why the Mark All as Read button needed to move from the lower left to the lower right, but I cannot get used to it even more than a month later. Ive tried. Please please at least add a setting that allows us to toggle it between left and right. Thanks!

Great app, developer totally non-responsive

I really like Reeder (and the Mac version too) but it has a bug with Newsblur syncing and read stories, and the developer does not respond to email and there is no other way to contact them. The bug is annoying. The app is otherwise very nice to use. But youre taking a chance.

Battery hog

This app is using nearly 30% of my iPhone 6s battery daily because it is constantly caching things. Sent a message to support with no response. The Inoreader app hardly uses any resources.

My long time RSS app

I love Reeder and always want to keep using it, but I have a feature request: Please allow users to change where the "mark as read" button location is. I hold my phone in my left hand and I cant reach the checkmark icon because its all the way on the right side of the screen on my iPhone 6. If I could toggle it to be on the left I could use Reeder with one hand. Right now I have to use both because of the button location.

Good?

The app is good and its designed well and performs well. However, it never updates in the background and it doesnt have an option to display pictures in the feed which I think is crazy. Am I doing some thing wrong here? I have background refresh on so idk what else is going on.

Huge steps back

Nearly unusable on iphone 6s, ios 9. Hangs constantly, background sync almost never works. A once awesome app has taken a giant step back.

Readability gone...

The primary reason I purchased this app was for the in-app Readability processing. It stopped working and now has somehow disappeared completely. Back to Mr. Reader.

Issues

Needs an update, has issues with loading links, a problem thats just recently popped up.

Longtime user

I had used Reeder back in the first two versions before Google Reader shut down. It was my favorite RSS reader. I then left after the Google Reader debacle and tried to find an RSS replacement. Luckily Reeder began to support some other RSS aggregators, so I came back. Its a really solid app. Misses on a few things. The syncing still seems to be wonky with my RSS aggregator. Wish it had an easier gesture for going to the next article. Other than that its a really great RSS and article reading app.

Native share sheet!

Native share sheet is pretty okay, the current one is no longer needed.

Doesnt work

Tried loading up the in-app browser and always get nothing. Useless.
