FeedR News Reader Android App is a really good RSS reader. The best feature is its ability to Search for RSS feeds. Therefore, you don’t have to know or remember some long drawn out RSS URLs. For example in FeedR, search android app reviews and AndroidTapp.com RSS feed pops up. FeedR includes all the goodies you’ll want from a reader such as adding & managing feeds, notification alerts, automatic updates, mark as favorite/read, show images, link to full article, plus more!
One thing I like is its progressive loading of content, which is great for user experience, meaning articles load really quickly. As you read and scroll, content is loading, so the user never knows this or have to wait on loading bars while content downloads. (The only way you know this is if you immediately open an unread article and quickly try to scroll to the end).
Those who keep up with multiple blogs, forums and news sources know the power of a good RSS reader. If you’re not familiar with RSS readers, they allow you to read the content from a website without actually visiting the website. When a good reader comes along for Android… it’s much appreciated!
FeedR News Reader Android App is very straight-forward and easy to use, simply add your feeds by searching or typing the URL. Poke around in the Settings menu to set notifications, auto updates or create desktop shortcuts.
The user interface is simple yet optimal for reading and keeping up with your favorite websites.
