Leave a Review Reeder Classic
Fantastic RSS Reader
This is my favorite client for all of my subscribed blogs and news sources. I love the ability to force “reader view” for subscriptions that only post a few sentences to the RSS feed.
The only feature I wish it had was the ability to do quick notes. I don’t know how feasible that is, but it would make taking notes on articles so much better. (Highlighted text in quick notes would be a *huge* bonus, but I think that’s probably something only Safari can do?)Show lessdrewshays
Great app, but a suggestion!
Awesome app, but it would be cool to be able to add Twitter feeds. There are a few accounts I’d like to specifically follow and I know there are a few ways to get around it. But having that functionality baked right in would be absolutely amazing.Happycamper938582
iCloud syncing is now very broken
I have been using this app for years. Paying for upgrades and recommending it as best in class.
Unfortunately it’s now been months since it has synced reliably. I use the app on iPad, Mac and iPhone. I rely on it being up to date and in sync. As I write this it last updated my feeds over 2 days ago on iOS and just spins and spins.
I have reinstalled and re-downloaded. I have hoped the last few updates would solve this. I will have to move to a competitor if this isn’t properly resolved.Show lessS. Penman
Will be the last version I purchase
Have been a Reeder supporter for years. The app has been on every iPad, iPhone and Mac that I’ve owned. The recent update and lack of support has brought me to the conclusion that I won’t support the developer going forward. The ability to sync is pretty important for any RSS client, so now that it’s broke just makes for a nice icon on my iPhone. Have reached out asking for assistance and no response. On to the next app.Show lessAWSii
Saves my life and time.
Very solid app, plenty of options to customize. Doesn’t pidgeonhole you into creating an account and syncing your entire rss library through them.
I would recommend checking the spelling under the reset option on Feeder’s settings - it should be “your data won’t be restored!” instead of “you’re data”. :)
Good work!Show lessAdvarium
Long time supporter and fan
Feels like I’ve been using this app for nearly 10 years. I would say “keep it up” but this app has truly withstood the test of time and has never disappointed. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽king kontinuum
Keeps marking unread as read
I really like the layout and the UI, but it drives me crazy when unread items at the bottom of my list get marked as read when I try refreshing Unread on iPad.
Sometimes I have older news items that I haven't gotten to yet, and then they just disappear. It's like it's registering a scroll action.
I've read through the other reviews for this app, but none of them share my concerns. Maybe I'm doing something wrong? It's just that I've never had this problem with other feed readers.
Unread: An RSS Reader is much better in this regard, but it's much much more expensive.Show lesssolaret
Best RSS Reader
This app is really top notch. I appreciate it so much I made it a point to write a review. I love the way it looks, the read later tab, and integration with other apps like Pocket. It is very customizable as well. The gesture support is intuitive and really captures Apple design aesthetics.
My one ask would be a way to highlight parts of articles for reference later or a way to integrate this with other apps like Pocket. Otherwise, near flawless. Such great value.Show lessAceCard8
Meh
Between Newsify snd Reeder, Newsify is the clear winner. It’s stood the test of time and in years I’ve not been forced to upgrade or ensure failed syncs. Reeder, however syncs much more data, when it works, but that sync is slow. IDK what determines the number of articles that are fetched but iCloud sync is insufficient. I use TheOldReader and syncing online (although very slow) pulls about 150K articles. I have a lot of feeds so that’s about right for me, but I wish it was adjustable.
Today, TheOldReeder syncing stopped. It’s the same issue I had with Reeder 4 and why I upgraded to 5. Pull down for sync and the spinner stops within 2 seconds. Yes, I can delete and download again, however bc of the slow speed that means keeping the display alive long enough for it to complete.Show lessLAX20531
Thanks to the developer
This is a great update. I’ve used Reeder off and on for years but this update gives everything I think I need (at least for now). iCloud support, mark-as-read on scroll, automatic readability, custom fonts/sizes, etc. These are quality of life features but ultimately make the reading experience better than all other news apps. This combined with content neutrality, I highly recommend.Show lesseric2k21
