Feedly News Reader
Developer: Feedly Team (+feedly )
Genre: News Reader / RSS Reader
Google Play Description
“Feedly is a new way to browse the content of your
favorite news sites, RSS feeds, Tumblr blogs and YouTube channels. Instead of
having to hunt down for news, feedly uses RSS to aggregate the contents of the
news sites and blogs you like and deliver them as a fast mobile-optimized
experience.
Taken from Nexus 4 |
Feedly is an RSS news reader re-imagined for android
phones and tablets. It makes browsing faster and more fun: the content of your RSS
feeds, news sites and blogs are transformed into pocket-sized cards which load
very fast and are easy to browse.
The Feedly UI is custom tailored for a 4" phone, a
7" tablet and a 10" tablet. If you run Feedly on a tablet, you will
get an experience which is very close to a personalized magazine: a really fun
way to track and read your favorite blogs.
When you run Feedly on a phone and on a tablet, the
configuration will automatically syncs between both devices.
Feedly makes sharing content on twitter, Facebook and
google+ very simple, either directly or using Buffer. We also offer integration
with Pocket, Instapaper and Evernote.
Feedly delivers all your favorite news in one place.”
Feedly News Reader is one of the most popular news
readers available for the mobile platform.

it was paperboy). It is simplistic plus feature rich. I have rarely had
issues with it (so far and I’ve been using it for about a week and a half).
