### 1/5 — Fails to Login

*2026-08-12*

Unable to sync with my server. I confirmed multiple times that my FreshRSS instance is accessible at the provided url and that I can sign in with my username and password. It fails to connect in this app, works fine on my server’s web page.

### 2/5 — Can't try it

*2026-10-09*

Requires a https connection, and I don't want to set up a reverse proxy just for this app. I was trying to replace another app that doesn't  have an issue here, but isn't that well maintained.

### 5/5 — App Works Great

*2026-08-20*

Overall, a great app does exactly what you wanted to do. For those of you that are having a hard time logging in, you have to use an API password and not your normal one.
