Hanging on the green screen

Or flickering madly. Those seem to be my options lately. No articles at all.

App Won’t Launch

After years of daily use, the most recent update no longer even opens. I hope a new update fixes the problem.

Multiple Mark as Read Required to Clear, Scrolling Types Breaks

First of all, bring back Feedly Classic, much cleaner and less prone to issues. The current Feedly app is a navigation mess. Mark as Read requires at least 2 presses before clearing the articles and marking as read. The scrolling type randomly switches from Paged to Smooth. These bugs have persisted through multiple app updates. So perhaps you guys need stronger bug killer.

Too many behind paywall

I just uninstalled the app. My time is my most valuable resource so I guard it with my life. Way too many stories in the feed we’re linking to stories behind a paywall. For instance, very first two today were NYJ stories requiring a sub to read. Wasting my time. Buh bye

iOS app won’t load after latest update

The app stays on the green screen with Feedly logo. Already tried to quit and reopen and nothing. Tried restarting the phone and nothing. iPadOS app was just updated and that one opened without a problem. It seems it’s just iOS.

Page scrolling setting still broke with latest two updates.

Overall, a solid RSS app and I enjoy it daily! However, with the latest update, the Page Scrolling setting is broken. It only works 30% of the time and needs to be fixed.

Broken for a few updates.

Well this August ‘26 update now lets me see a static loading screen, the green one at the beginning. Previously it flashed like a strobe.

I let it run hoping it was updating things. Picked up iPhone 17p a few minutes later and it’s hot and Feedly still on splash screen.

Can not use.

Still Won’t Launch

I haven’t been able to load the app for quite some time now. I got my hopes up when I saw an update available. It just hangs during the splash screen, as others have said. How does this get past QA?!
F.

Update broke it, lost all my feeds

I was using this app daily then they updated it. First it wouldn't work at all, kept crashing as soon as I opened it. I uninstalled and reinstalled and lost all of the feeds I had spent years curating. I am seriously annoyed. So many apps are being vibe coded with AI these days! Please hire human programmers and test your apps before deploying!

App Won’t Load

Latest update broke the app. I try to load the app and it never goes past the initial green Feedly screen.

WTF happened?!

The app has been great for years across all platforms. Now suddenly it won’t even load. I deleted, downloaded again and relogged in and now it just takes me back to the login screen.

Why doesn’t Today show today?

Why does the Today view no longer show today’s articles? Add this to the freezing and it’s sad how bad this app has become.

Bad interface element overlap

This app worked fine until recently but now when wanting to close a window from an external site it is almost impossible. If the could move the close window element so that it is not obscured by the 3 buttons for close/minimize/full full size. That would be very good

Broken

I’ve been using Feedly for years on computer, iPhone, and iPad. Recently the iPad app seems to be broken. First it would pull up the green screen with the logo, but that’s all it would do. I deleted and redownloaded, but can’t log in. It gives me the option to use Google, Apple,Microsoft or email, but selecting any of those just makes the icon flash: no login screen appears. Same thing happens if I select sign up instead of log in. I tried the same thing again after updating iOS, and still can’t get to a login screen. This makes me sad because iPad lets me read on a large ish screen somewhere other than my desk, and I miss that ability.

Love Feedly. Hate the new app.

First of all, I haven’t been able to read more than two articles in a row before it crashes.

Secondly, do they think we’ve all gone blind? This “new” app uses huge fonts and massive amounts of white space that mean I can only see one or two articles at a time. This completely defeats the purpose of using Feedly.

I love the service, but someone was completely out of touch with any normal humans when they approved this update. And now that the Feedly Classic app has been broken by the developers, it looks like it’s time to hunt down a new service and say goodbye to Feedly.

Bring back Feedly classic!

This one sucks. Why did you kill Feedly classic? Bring back the classic interface!

Latest update broke it

App opens to a flashing mess

Feedly classic broken

Can’t sign in. Devs don’t seem to care.

Terrible app

Feedly used to be the best. Then they made a new feedly in 2013 and renamed good feedly to feedly classic and made this feedly the worst feedly possible. Now feedly classic has been delisted to force hidden, misleading, predatory $25 subscriptions for ai bloat that no one needs on this terrible app. Dont bother. Avoid at all costs.

Settings stopped working

Used this for years, suddenly Text-only default view stopped working and now shows images. Deleted app and reinstalled. Same problem. I hate when apps break things that worked perfectly.
