I can’t log in with Google??

It keeps crashing when I try to log in with Google

Google login not working

Google login not working on 17pro max. Regular Feedly is working fine.

Google login crash

Crashes with Google login. Even uninstalled and reinstalled App.

Fix the context menu

I know you are not maintaining the app, but this shouldn't require big effort. Some context menu actions hang the app - could you please fix them? I am taking about context menu on selected text in articles.

Preferred over the new version

The way pages and news are formatted in this version is easier to read and navigate for me. I like the fact I can see information quickly, and swipes gestures feel more natural to me.

Everything an RSS reader needs to be and nothing more

What more could you ask for? This is truly the pinnacle of Internet content consumption. It's dead simple. No distracting ads. Easy to tap through to open articles in the app and then in the browser.

This version seems pretty broken at the moment

It used to be an essential app which I would use daily, however the current version seems pretty broken. It no longer allows syncing to OneNote, the troubleshooting suggestions seem elsewhere doesn’t work and even trying to log in again is just causing the app to crash.

Given that the support link on the app page in the AppStore doesn’t take you to an app page, it may be that you’ll need, like me, to look for an alternative if they don’t fix it soon. There is a newer version but I really don’t like it.

Wish they would fix the layout bug!

Still the best reader, but I wish they would fix the layout bug that frequently messes up the formatting on an iPad (or introduce the much more appealing formatting of Feedly Classic on the far less charming new version). The feed seems to get stuck on the left of the screen, it goes back to normal after rotating the iPad back and forth, but that gets frustrating quickly.

Was Way better.

Updating old review: app crashes when trying to login with google account. People have reported this for over a year. The app is finally dead I guess.

Original: So much better than the new app. Actually looks the way it’s supposed to.

Since you use Cloudflare, I can’t create an account

I used to live this app but now it’s impossible to create an account because since you are using Cloudflare, I am detected as if I am not human. I have tried on two different browsers and it’s not working.

Previous bug was caused by maintenance

All good! Just planned maintenance. Thank you for keeping your status page updated.

Is Feedly related to Elon Musk?

Why is Elon Musk’s name and face all over Feedly’s info? I’ve done a little research into it and these two don’t seem related, so what’s the deal? I’d prefer to NOT support anything Musk is involved with, if I can help it. Is using Feedly somehow supporting him?

A new bug?

A recent update of Classic causes pages to lay out too narrow on initial loads. Can be corrected with a brief iPad orientation flip, but it would be nice if this got fixed.

Latest iOS update borked the app

I love Feedly Classic, but the latest iOS update causes the app to shrink to half screen when you leave the app and come back to it. You have to shut it down and reopen each time. I hope Feedly is still serving us Classic lovers updates.

I will always miss Google's RSS reader

But Feedly makes up for the loss.

Google account crashes app

I can’t enter my Google login. As soon as I try and confirm my account, app crashes, and takes me back to the home screen. It’s been like this for months. somebody fix it.

Google issues

Was logged out and google keeps crashing. Unable to log back in!

Google account catnot login

Google account catnot login

Far superior than the new Feedly app

I don’t understand how this old “classic” version is still way superior than the “new” Feedly. 🤷🏻‍♂️

If they add the option for dark mode in sync with the phone, this app would be perfect. I would happily pay for this app.

Original is best

Please bring it back
