An Otter RSS Reader User Reviews

Inconsistent function

The ability to subscribe to a feed from Safari is very inconsistent. I love this app but it only seems to work when it feels like it. Please fix that. :)

Update: it keep completely dumping my feeds now. To the point I've lost a lot of feeds for no reason. I'll save them, go to another app, come back and they're gone. ALSO, I notice a parallel between when I leave this app and have this issue and keyboard malfunctions.

Something is going goofy. Still like the app but it's unstable so I'll have to use something else for now. Which is sad. This is the closest thing to Google Reader I've seen since they shut that down. ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Perfectly simple rss app

Could not recommend enough. Wish there more apps out there with this kind of functional but aesthetic approach

You Otter try this guy

It's exceedlingly simple. If you are just trying to read your news, saved reddit posts (what I use it for), or your journal articles without being to fussy or fancy. This is the app for you.

Crashes

More attractive and better UI than most other RSS apps, but unfortunately crashes anytime I try to play a video

Review

I cannot get my Otter subscription to RECORD. Unable to record a webinar because of this.

hands down the best Rss reader

look no further, this is THE rss reader...i've tried all the well known reader apps and Otter is king of the hill!

Nice free RSS reader

Works as advertised. Easemporting an existing list of feeds from another reader on my Mac was a big plus.

The only improvement would be to reduce the white space between the list of feeds.

Trouble persisting feeds

Hey, I have been having trouble having feeds persist after closing the app; when I subscribe to feeds and close the app, all the feeds are gone, making me have to read each url. Unsure if theres a way to save different feeds?

Otherwise love the minimalist nature of the app!

Better than ok

Iโ€™d been struggling with the rss readers in the app store. Every one of them is very pretty, fine, but every one of them mostly serves up whatever specific sources the developer wants me to see. Otter is beautiful, minimal, and functional. I add the rss, I get a list of headlines, and I can organize them by folder. Literally all I wanted.

โ€ฆ.ok I wouldnโ€™t be sad if there was a toggle option to turn on thumbail images on the screen preview list for articles, I do follow a lot of art blogs, but thatโ€™s it. Otherwise perfect. If that would mess up the wonderful design this app has, then better than perfect and forget I said anything at all.

You otter know โ€ฆ

that Otter RSS is the best feed reader Iโ€™ve come across to date. The best part, you ask? โ€ฆ is that itโ€™s free but is well deserving of the tip option it features.
