I'm currently on an iPhone 5 and was using RSS Runner. RSS Runner works fine but it's not a universal app (iPad/iPhone) and it looks weird in my iPad 4. I started using Flipboard but missed some features that I consider vital.
So, I'm looking for a new RSS reader with the following features:
I'd like to open the app and there's my list of feeds (RSS Runner does this quite well). I could fit a list of 20 or more feeds in the same space that Flipboard uses to show only 6 feeds (pictures take up too much space). Flipboard is nice but I can't find a way to hide articles that I have already read. One thing I dislike about Flipboard is that it wastes screen real estate with pictures. Flipboard would be perfect if I could figure out how to hide the front page, pictures and articles that I have already seen. I tried Newsvibes but it's horrible.. and it can't even find a feed for MacTrast.
What are your thoughts?
So, I'm looking for a new RSS reader with the following features:
- Allows the user to manually input a feed URL
- Displays just a list of feeds with each feed displaying just a list of articles
- Able to hide read article and refresh for new articles
- Doesn't waste space with pictures (I could live with this if all other features were present)
- Universal app (iPad/iPhone)
- Doesn't require any type of account (feedly, theoldreader, etc.)
- Paid or free, doesn't matter, I happily pay for quality apps
