  • This is better than new version.

    I read a fair bit of news and I prefer the hold press to save articles in this old one, soo much quicker. This saves to instapaper and dropbox and others tru ifttt.

    The new one is good - organising sources etc, but I’m very glad u have made this available too - thanks x millions. I will be using both versions, for dif reasons I think.

    Update: happy to see dropbox integration working now - I don’t know if that was my fault I lost it, or bc of an update. Back up to 5 stars!

  • OMG, my eyes thank you

    I don’t care that you made the icon all black and white and unattractive. I’m glad to have the old app back. Especially after using the new one, I have a new appreciation for how good this one actually is. Thank you for listening to those who were disappointed.
  • Much better than the new version!

    Great app, really didn't like the new one.
  • Remember New Coke? This is Coke Classic.

    This original version of Feedly should have the 22k ratings and the full color icon, but thank you anyway DevHD for continuing to make this app available. As an RSS devotee from Google Reader days, I really appreciate not being left behind again.
  • Much better then the new UI

    I never liked the new user interface, the scrolling experience it’s way worse and less smooth then the previous version. I’ll keep the new installed too to check if there is any change but in the meantime I can continue to use the Classic Version.
  • So much better than the new version

    This old (now called Classic) version of Feedly is a great app with well designed and fast interface, all you want for a news feed app.
    The new version is actually slower to browse (no swipe to new page, just wobbly continuous scroll). I can even put up with the turned to be ugly (designed to be scary?) grey logo and continue to use this old version instead of the new one.
    If the company would have ceased to support a separate version like this with the old classic features, I would be looking for another app.

  • Feedly is dead. Long live Feedly Classic!

    This newsreader is absolutely perfect. Maybe someday the “new Feedly” will be fixed, but at the moment it can not compare to this gem. It was perfect just like it was, so I’m not sure why they saw a need to “improve” it. The new (non-Classic) version has about a 2-star rating average - the only reason it looks better is because of all the old reviews that I and many thousands of other users wrote about THIS set of features before they screwed it up. So I’m sticking with Classic, and the only thing I don’t like is the boring gray logo. I can live with that.

  • Old version better

    Much prefer the older version. New one feels like it's got too much crammed into it.
    Please bring back color to the old icon 🙏
  • Stick with Classic

    The new one is probably fine. I'm just use to the Classic layout and like it better. Thanks to the developer for keeping it available. Hopefully they'll get around to moving the "mark all read" away from "refresh".
  • Better than the new one!!

    I much prefer the swiping mechanism of this app compared to the new one! Not only because I was used to it, but also because the swipes didn’t need to be as long.
    Please, make the icon green again, or at least with more contrast.
