O melhor

Meu aplicativo favorito, para iOS e Mac. Sinto falta de uma opção para resumir ou um modo totalmente escuro.

A step backwards ergonomically

I’ve always paid for Reeder upgrades over the years, as they’ve been high quality and have added well-considered features. This version adds Liquid Glass support, but removes some fundamentals. I know it’s an attempt to remove the pressure to read articles and manage that read count, but I include feeds because I *want* to keep track of whether I’ve read articles or not. I don’t want to keep thinking “oh - I’ve read this before”, or to completely miss articles because I don’t know how far to scroll.

Imagine an email app that shows you all your emails but doesn’t indicate which ones you’ve read, and also doesn’t let you delete or file them.

Reeder Classic has better reviews than this latest version, which is a shame. Liquid Glass in its iOS 27 form would be nice, but probably not worth a subscription on its own, but when accompanied by an impractical reading experience it’s a definite no.

클래식이랑 둘다 썻는데, 이걸 지웁니다

구독제인데 기능적으로 이미 완성형인 클래식에서 굳이 넘어갈 이유를 모르겠습니다. 구독 가격도 비싸구요.

Très intéressant MAIS

Après avoir utilisé Feedly pendant des années, j'ai testé des 10aines d'autres services pour trouver son remplaçant. Et ça a failli être Reeder !

J'aime beaucoup sa simplicité et son interface qui permettent de se concentrer sur la lecture, mais il a deux points négatifs qui me font aujourd'hui préférer NetNewsWire :

- l'absence de gestion des lus/non lus (je sais que c'est une volonté mais griser les articles lus est indispensable quand on suit beaucoup de sources),

- la gestion des tableaux dans un article (le tableau disparaît et toutes les informations s'affichent un peu n'importe comment).

Vraiment dommage ! Je vais garder l'app téléchargée et si ces modifications sont prises en compte, je passe directement sur Reeder avec abonnement annuel.

Bravo en tout cas pour cette belle app.

PS : pouvoir choisir sur quelle app on souhaite ouvrir une vidéo YouTube (navigateur Brave par exemple) ou un podcast (Apple Podcasts) serait également un très gros plus.

Can’t filter for read/unread articles

I’ve paid for every version of Reeder and really wanted to like this version. Reeder classic allowed me to go through 80 feeds/day in under 30 minutes. Key for me was that I could note which items I had already read. That made it easy for me to skip certain feeds and then catch-up at a later date or just mark a week’s worth of news gone in a key stroke.

That’s all gone now. I can’t tell what I have already read, so the timeline just becomes a clutter of articles with no sense of what I have already looked at. The author has created an app that meets his need to go through the news every day. However, that’s not my workflow, so I’ll be uninstalling the app.

On a side note: i’d be happy to pay the same subscription fee for Reeder Classic. It’s still the best RSS reader out there and I’d love to see it maintained properly.

최고의 RSS리더앱

2012년부터 Reeder app을 사용하고 있습니다. 결국 RSS는 이 앱으로 돌아오게 되더군요.

Bad experience on iPad

It’s like LLM generated app.

Best

Thank you

Very disappointed so far.

Unable to delete or removed read or unneeded articles. I’ll keep working with it but other than the ability to increase text size I see a little or no improvement in this version. I’ve been using Reeder for years and I’m very disappointed. This version introduces several new features which I have no interested in such as timeline

現代的なRSSリーダー

最近になってNetNewsWireから切り替えました。NetNewsWireもRSSの原理原則に忠実で魅力的なアプリなのですが、Reederはニュースサイトなどの他にもYouTubeやポッドキャストを購読できるのが素晴らしい。無料版には10個までしか登録できない制限があるものの、それを補って余りある良さがあります。

Incompatibilité Eurosky

Très belle application, bien pratique. Ayant migré mon compte Bluesky vers Eurosky, j’ai malheureusement dû me désabonner car il est impossible de connecter un compte depuis ce réseau.

I love the new direction

Reeder has been my RSS app of choice since version 1 but now it’s also the only social media app on my phone and its replaced my use of YouTube entirely. With a couple of tweaks could one day replace my podcast app too. Very well done!

Slick looking but impossible to delete articles

Very slick, but it is simply impossible to delete a read item in a feed… how can you manage what You’ve read then?

前のバージョンより進化している。

情報収集ツールとしての活用を考えたときに、以前よりも使い勝手が劇的に進化していて、ものすごく、私の用途にはまったものになった。いろいろな情報を収集して行くツールとしては、完成度がたかいと思う。使い方しだいでは、かなり重宝する人もいるのではないかと思う。

Not recommended

Some bugs like being unable to add some feeds remained unsolved, and emailing the developer didn't get any response (already three months).

For subscription I don't expect new features delivered but the reliability of the basic functionality with communication to users, if they face issues. Understanding the only developer is busy but when you launch an app with a subscription plan you should evaluate whether you can handle the enormous workload for both developing and maintaining apps.

Had to abandon after years

I couldn’t use the new version. I sent multiple requests to support for assistance and never received a reply back so just gave up. After years of using the older reeder I wanted to use this new one and I can’t even see a way to simply pull the feed and show one line per entry. I always get a preview despite searching for a way to turn it off.

Some feeds I’ve used it says it can’t find when putting the entry to pull it despite other feed apps finding it just fine.

I’m so used to using this so having to give up on it is disappointing but I wish the developer well and hope others can figure it out.

Love it

Get off social media, and choose your own news. Reeder is really the best app to do that. Love the new timeline centric design.

Loss of third party feed support

I have used and paid for Reeder for various versions and upgrades, and is one of the best reading experiences, hands down, on iPad and the Mac. However, the removal of any third-party feed service has killed this app for me. I tried to move feeds over and then stopped - just wasn’t worth my time when other readers exist, and I’d lose web view functionality if i did it. You should know going into this that that support that existed in prior versions was dropped for this rebirth version, and it wasn’t clear that it’s iCloud only. I don’t want to move all my feeds from feedbin etc. Into an iCloud-only sync app, limiting where I can view those feeds and on what devices. A shame this happened, maybe understandable to simplify support, but further closes an open standard into a closed one. So long old friend.

Great Ad Free experience

I love this latest version of Reeder. I came from reeder classic and the fact I can combine all my YouTube, podcasts and feeds into one is a plus and there are no ads with YouTube videos. ( some youtube channel does have issue with this but most are just fine). Please keep up the good work and continue to improve this app. Thank you

Step backwards

No longer supports self hosted fever server. Big regression in functionality from Reeder classic
