Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: FeedFlow at 4.5 against RSSReader's 1.0. FeedFlow also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 months) and review sentiment (79% vs 57%). RSSReader's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
